“Cityweekend is my first source of information and news...”

Cityweekend is my first source of information and news about restaurants in Shanghai and music/nightlife events. The directory listings are sincerely the best ones in town and I use them almost every single time I go out with friends (the user reviews, although their quality may vary, are a great help in orienting your choice!). I would really like to see more relevant articles and stories, as well as some social networking functions, but hey! It's all free and you can't really complain too much. Family content (for older expats etc.) is also great.

Site for expats in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou. It's very good for knowing events and business listings but the articles and the feature stories are not great (boring, so-so written).

As an expat living in Shanghai, City Weekend is my first stop before going out. It makes my life easier because I can trust their reviews, and their listings are practically the best in town, always updated. The ability to read other users' comments on a venue helps decision making, especially when you have a picky group of friends that always wants to visit great restaurants and nightclubs! The website is a little bit antiquate, but I've heard they're working on a new version. I would like to see more social functions on the website, but hey, nobody's perfect. Great site!

This is an expat site for foreigners living in China. Though it has many features, the two that are really worth looking at are the listings section and the upcoming events. Other sections (especially articles) often leave something to be desired.

Cityweekend (Beijing) is generally a good website however many of the functions don't work well. Articles written by staff are seemingly driven by subjects that will get the most hits. Quality of writing is very poor however normally informative enough to get what you need quickly. Reviews are of nominal use. Because the format is very like a chat room the reviews sometimes read that way. Perhaps the best part of this website is the events section.
