Pegu Club




A postcard of the Pegu Club in 1910.


The Pegu Club was a Victorian-style Gentlemen's club in Rangoon, Burma (now Yangon, Myanmar). It was built in the 1880s and completed in 1882 to serve the British army officers and civilian administrators after the annexation of Upper Burma in 1885.[1][2] It was one of the most famous gentlemen's clubs in Southeast Asia, at par with the Royal Selangor Club of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia and Tanglin Club in Singapore.[3]


It is located on off Pyay Road opposite the Russian embassy and was reportedly off limits to the local Bamars in colonial times. The building is still extant but in a very poor state of repair. Paul Theroux visited the Pegu Club in 1971 and wrote about it in his book The Great Railway Bazaar.[3]

The Pegu cocktail




Pegu Club in a poor state of repair


In the 1920s, it gave rise to the Pegu cocktail.



Reincarnation


A new Pegu club was opened in New York City's SoHo district. It continues to serve the Pegu club cocktail and has played in the revival in interest and reputation of the cocktail.

Node.js puppeteer - Use values from array in a loop to cycle through pages

Node.js puppeteer - Use values from array in a loop to cycle through pages I'm using node.js and puppeteer to get some data. ... now I want to visit different pages based on inregular values from an array: My array looks like this: rows = [ RowDataPacket id: 1, value: 'L3', name: 'Steve' , RowDataPacket id: 2, value: 'GU', name: 'Peter' , RowDataPacket id: 3, value: 'M5', name: 'John' ] So the pages I want to visit are: await page.goto('url/search?action=getname&name=L3', waitUntil: 'load'); await page.goto('url/search?action=getname&name=GU', waitUntil: 'load'); await page.goto('url/search?action=getname&name=M5', waitUntil: 'load'); The array is actually 200 values long ... so I thought of doing a loop like this: await page.goto('url', waitUntil: 'load'); rows = [ RowDataPacket id: 1, value: 'L3', name: 'Steve' , RowDataPac...
