The One Place In The Life Bar (Yi Xi 一席)

The One Place In The Life Bar (Yi Xi 一席)

This recently opened bar and restaurant took over a large swath of the island’s Xiamen-facing outdoor-bar territory between the Lun Du ferry port and the San Qiu Tian tourist ferry terminal, along the Xiamen-facing boardwalk. If you turn left as you’re stepping out of the San Qiu Tian tourist ferry terminal, it’ll be the biggest bar garden in sight. If you come to the Global Bowen Bear Hotel, you’ve gone too far.

This new indoor-outdoor restaurant and music bar is touristy but fun., and live music acts of variable quality take to the outdoor stage and play from early evening until around 10pm. The kitchen turns out good french fries and decent steaks, loaded potato skins, and other straightforward Chinese-Western fare with mediocre service.

The most notable thing about The One Place In The Life is its live music stage and expansive garden with bay views, complete with a kitschy white digital baby grand piano. Torches heat the expansive garden at night.

Live music is mostly Chinese pop. Western dishes include thin but tasty T-bone steaks, french fries, potato skins, and other appetizers that will help satisfy homesickness for Westerners. Torches warm things up in the garden on cold evenings in winter.

在正对厦门岛方向的鼓浪屿海岸边上,这家新开的酒吧式餐馆拥有一大片露天座位。当你从三丘田码头出来向左拐,你就会看到这家岛上最大的花园式酒吧了。音乐舞台、广阔的花园和海湾美景、和一架白色数码钢琴,是一席酒吧最有抢眼的地方。酒吧的音乐大多数是中国流行音乐,对于西方游客来说,品尝这里的T骨牛排、薯条、土豆皮、和其它开胃菜等西餐,是减轻他们思乡的好办法。对了,这里冬天的晚上还会摆放火炬让现场暖和起来。
