Diners will enjoy elevated Chinese cuisine and traditional favourites
as Shangri-La’s signature restaurant visits three iconic resorts
Dubai, 19 December 2019 – Shang Palace, the much-loved restaurant
for Cantonese, Sichuanese and
provincial Chinese delicacies is undoubtedly the jewel in Shangri-La
hotels’ dining crown. With over 35 award-winning restaurants worldwide from mainland China,
Hong Kong, Singapore and Dubai to Istanbul, Paris and London, Shang Palace is
renowned for its delicious fusion of the Far East.
Boasting
four one and two Michelin-starred restaurants and six Black Diamond Awards
(China’s equivalent to Michelin stars), Shang Palace is debuting the first-ever
pop-up blending Asian dining values,
gastronomic innovation and celebrated culinary talent.
The pop-up will visit three iconic Shangri-La resorts in the
Maldives, Oman and Mauritius in 2020, showcasing traditional recipes as well as
a bespoke menu curated by Shangri-La Hotel,
Singapore's Michelin starred Chef Mok. With over 40 years of
culinary expertise and having prepared exquisite meals for dignitaries, royals
and celebrities around the globe, Chef Mok’s desire and dedication to promoting
authentic Chinese fare is unrivalled.
These recipes will be brought to life at each destination by Chef
Liu Shengquan. Born in Chongqing, China, Chef Liu Shengquan has over 20 years
of experience. Specialising in Sechuan, Cantonese, Hunan and Northeastern
Chinese cuisine, he passionately creates new dishes by combining regional
Chinese flavours, which makes his cooking exciting, surprising and enriching.
Gastronomes will adore the mouth-watering delights including char
siu bun, deep-fried stuffed crab shell and the famous Shang Palace fried rice,
all crafted with meticulous attention to detail by Chef Liu Shengquan.
Shang Palace’s exceptional haute cuisine will only be available for
a limited time in each location so there’s no better time to start planning
that five-star holiday. The tour fittingly debuts at Shangri-La’s Villingili Resort & Spa,
Maldives, to celebrate the auspicious occasion of Chinese New
Year from January 24 – February 8, 2020.
Guests will welcome the Year of the Golden Rat, with a sumptuous
Shang Palace feast and festivities on the tropical hideaway, or catch it on its
return to the resort for Golden Week during October 1- 7, 2020. With al fresco
dining, activities for all the family and the only 9-hole golf course in the
Maldives, it’s the perfect Indian Ocean haven.
Next stop is the exhilarating mountain retreat of Shangri-La Barr
Al Jissah Resort & Spa
in Muscat from 7 – 12 April, 2020, where the
team will roll out the specially curated menu of Shang Palace favourites.
Reimagining Omani elegance and Asian hospitality, guests can soak up the
tranquil ambience of the majestic mountain sanctuary surrounded by palms and
traditional Dhofari architecture while enjoying Dine by Design concepts and a
wealth of exciting experiences.
While
Shangri-La’s Le
Touessrok Resort & Spa, Mauritius,
nestled on the beautiful shores of Trou d’Eau Douce, will host the celebrated
pop-up from 24 October - 8 November, 2020. Blessed with six white-sand beaches,
a private island retreat, trendy dining options and two golf courses including an
18-hole designed by Bernhard Langer, it’s no surprise it’s become the most
exclusive address in Mauritius.
Elevating
Asian cuisine onto a world stage while championing regional dishes, the Chinese chefs will be pulling out all the stops to ensure memorable
dining moments set against the breath-taking backdrop of the Shangri-La resorts,
during this unique tour.
