“Certain gentlemen of other days. Who made of drinking one of the pleasures of life — not one of its evils; who, whatever they drank, proved able to carry it, keep their heads, and remain gentlemen.” (The Old Waldorf Astoria bar book, 1935) “昔日君子风度，一饮天下甘醇，仍可谈笑鸿儒。“ （出于1935年华尔道夫旧版酒吧指南） WELCOME TO THE LONG BAR The Shanghai Club, opened on 6th January 1911, was famed for its ‘Long Bar’ – and it was long – stretching 110 feet 7 inches along the south face of the building. The established taipans, or big bosses, would gather at the end of the bar near the waterfront whilst newcomers to Shanghai, known as ‘griffins,’ would be relegated to the murky depths of the tavern. The club’s brand of respectable hospitality was far from open to all. When Club chairman, W.A. C. Platt, opened the building, he asserted that it was to be run on the principle of ‘the greatest happiness of the greatest number.’ Membership was hugely expensive and subject to a members’ ballot where four out of five had to be in agreement. Women, of course, were not permitted to enter and were only admitted on very rare occasions throughout the Club’s History.
