"A member of the Set Collection, The Middle House in Dazhongli is an urban retreat impeccably designed by Piero Lissoni. The floor-to-ceiling windows keep you well aware of its city-slicker coordinates. Though this boutique hotel and spa wouldn’t call itself eco, there are nods to lighter-touch living, with bikes to borrow, Bamford organic products, and rainwater captured to flush the toilets."
"This modern, sun-drenched hotel restaurant is known for its host of regional dim sum with a creative twist, such as xiao long bao with marbled skin, and novelty bites made with Iberico ham and beetroot juice. The Yunnan duck tagine with Sichuan pepper boasts delicate flesh and a garlicky kick; the accompanying house-made duck dumplings are simply divine. Wine and literature lovers should check out the poetic wine list with rhyming verses." - Michelin Inspector
"A historical mansion once belonging to architect IM Pei's family is now home to the Shanghai flagship of this upmarket dining group. Adorned by Pei's original drawings and traditional architectural motifs in the Suzhou style, the space befits the class of the brand. The seafood-focused menu can be customised to your party's liking, delivering an array of flavours with top-notch ingredients mostly from Taizhou, such as wild-caught yellow croaker." - Michelin Inspector
"This fashionable restaurant is part of the stylish hotel next to the HKRI Taikoo Hui shopping mall. The chef team deliver authentic Italian classics with home-style flavours. The pasta menu is especially worth exploring, with the al dente handcrafted ravioli standing out. Try also their home baked breads, Pinsa Romana and meats roasted on the Josper grill. Check out the wine list for its lovely selection of Italian vintages." - Michelin Inspector
