Taste the Seven Fabled Dishes of China
- More than just a meal, this is an immersive culinary journey through the finest flavors of China. We've woven the cultural essence and regional characteristics of China's seven major areas into the creation of seven exquisite dishes.
- Explore China's culinary map: Discover the flavors of China as we take you on a journey to the eastern, southern, western, northern, and central regions, as well as the Greater Bay Area and Shanghai. Each dish captures the essence of its region—its local terroir, customs, and cultural identity.
- Traditional taste reimagined: These classic recipes are deconstructed and reinterpreted using modern cooking techniques. For example, the Four Treasures of Jiangnan features magnolia buds, petals, a bridge, and a pagoda that are intricately sculpted from jiaobai (Manchurian wild rice stem) and celtuce. Even the tableware is meticulously selected—shapes and materials chosen to echo the origin and bring out the flavors of the food ingredients used. Every detail is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship.
