Jimmy Hornet China Before and After
This reel shows Jimmy Hornet Zhongshan China as it was before and after the renovation. It was an abandoned, cold and clinical space. It’s now a warm and unique venue, restaurant and bar….and it’s also my happy place.
Building A1 in ePark, East District, Zhongshan was once a Cantonese Canteen. Now renovated, the building is the flagship Jimmy Hornet venue.
