Description



Chef Wenjie Guo, a disciple of royal culinary lineages, crafts multi-course menus that apply traditional Chinese techniques to a mix of Chinese and global ingredients. The dishes aim to make unfamiliar textures and flavors accessible to unprepared palates without sacrificing authentic representation. The interior is richly decorated to evoke a palace dinner, creating a slow-paced enclave. However, the experience divides opinion; while the culinary artistry is praised, some guests find the high-end pricing out of sync with the service and decor.
