Club Manchu — Restaurant in Fairbanks

What a dump... Walked in, approached the bar, bartender walks off. Sat their with id out and cash in hand for 15 minutes. No service. I tip well and tend to order a lot. Maybe it's the 10 years of nightlife work experience in places that have great reputations for service that makes me judge every bar/club I go to. But club... No no, maybe a club of washed up, has been drunks...

There's karaoke on Monday night which is pretty cool for laid-back karaoke session. Friday and Saturday gets popping with DJ Manny. The bartenders make great drinks and it's a very cheap bar if you're...

I haven't been in Alaska for 20+ years. My first stop back will hopefully be the Manchu bar. My mom was a bar tender there and met my dad there after his tour in the navy. Please don't let me...
