f you ever doubted that Sicilians were fearless, you need look no further than Giuseppe Gladiatore of Alio Olio. The restaurateur set up shop just yards from the Chaoyang Park West Gate branch of a certain ubiquitous Beijing-based Italian restaurant chain. Some considered him a fool but Giuseppe knew best – Alio Olio was an instant hit and has been going strong for nearly two years. If you’ve never been to Alio Olio, an RMB 1,000 voucher ought to give you enough reasons to do so. To win, just answer this question: What does aglio e olio mean in English? Send your answer to win@ thebeijinger.com before June 30. Good luck.

hough tacos and tequila are something that we here in the northern capital can’t get enough of, the city’s love affair with Mexican restaurants never did run smooth. One notable success story is Sanlitun’s Q Mex. The much-hyped taqueria celebrates its first birthday this month and they want to share their joy with one lucky reader to the tune of an RMB 1,000 voucher for food and drink. For your chance to win, just answer this question: In the James Bond films, the character of Q is an abbreviation for which job title? Email your answer to win@ thebeijinger.com before June 30. Don’t forget to include your name and phone number. Good luck!

hen we hear the word Rosewood, we can’t help but think of Judge Reinhold playing Billy Rosewood to Eddie Murphy’s Axel Foley in Beverly Hills Cop. But we’d have different associations if we were natives of Queensland, where Rosewood is a small country town. Like all good country towns, it has a haunted hotel. Is it spooky that the hotel proprietor’s brother has opened the Rosewood Bar & Grill in Beijing? Probably not, but this is the place to get some fair dinkum tucker and we’ve got a voucher for one of you. To win, just answer this question: Which genus do all true rosewoods belong to? Send your answer to win@ thebeijinger.com before June 30. Good luck.
