Taste the Seven Fabled Dishes of China

More than a meal—a culinary journey through China that unfolds with the immersive experience. We weave the terroir and culture of China's seven major regions into seven dishes.

Tasting across seven regions: With China's seven regions as the culinary map, we travel east, south, west, north, centre, Greater Bay Area and Shanghai. Each dish is a portrait of a region's terroir and culture.

Deconstructing the classics: With modern craft we reimagine classic flavours. A single dish such as the Four Small Jiangnan Plates begins with a magnolia bud carved from jiaobai, moves through bud, petal and bridge forms, and ends in an exquisite pagoda carved from celtuce. The tableware is equally considered—shape and material chosen to honour the ingredients' origin and true flavour. Every detail is craftsmanship.

One dish, one pairing—a flavour symphony: Our tea masters and sommeliers pair each dish with a thematic tea or specialty drink, so the flavours echo the dish and deliver a more complete sensory experience.

Full Immersion with Special Costume

So you can lose yourself in this journey through time, we have prepared an exclusive bespoke Hanfu experience for you.

Each styling concept is rooted in deep research into the historical character of China's seven major regions. From patterns to accessories, from fabric to makeup, everything is historically grounded, aiming to faithfully recreate the unique spirit of each place.

A high standard of service: "one set per guest, washed after each use". All garments are professionally cleaned and disinfected; makeup tools are individually packaged for single use – an exclusive and refined experience.

In the carefully chosen attire, the pleats of the mamianqun blend with the immersive scenery; for a moment you are no longer an onlooker – you are in the painting, and every gesture is part of the view.
