Found a hidden treasure on the Bund! This new immersive restaurant is absolutely STUNNING. ✨

Tucked away on the B1 floor of the old Municipal Hall is TASTE OF CHINA, an experience that’s more than just dinner—it’s like starring in your own food blockbuster. 🎬 Your guide for the night is the adorable panda chef, "Cheng Baobao," who leads you on a journey through China's 7 great cuisines. Each dish is a new chapter in a story of ancient virtues. The sense of ceremony is off the charts! 🌌 Next-Level Immersive Vibe: The panoramic projections transport you everywhere from a misty Jiangnan landscape to the rushing Yellow River and a starry cosmos. The tabletops are interactive—you can practice calligraphy or catch virtual fish! It's a seamless blend of tech and tradition. Plus, with live Sichuan Opera, water sleeve dances, and Shaolin Kung Fu happening right beside your table, the entire room was filled with gasps of awe! 👘 Get Dressed for the Part: They have an amazing wardrobe with 7 styles of traditional/regional outfits (Hanfu, Qipao, etc.) spanning every era from Tang Dynasty to modern Hong Kong style. I chose this Tang-dynasty look and my friends couldn't stop complimenting it! 📸 Pro-tip: Arrive an hour early for their professional hair and makeup service. Get your photos done before you eat for those perfect shots! 🍽️ Highlights from the Menu (No Misses!): ▪️ Beijing Roast Duck: Crispy skin, tender meat, with a clever slice of hawthorn in the wrap to balance the richness. ▪️ Mapo Tofu w/ Boston Lobster: A surprisingly perfect fusion of Sichuan spice and fresh seafood. ▪️ Starry Sky Rice Balls: A dreamy-looking dessert that’s a must-photograph for every girl. The 7-course meal + tea will definitely leave you full and satisfied. 📌 Practical Tips: ✔️ Seating: Front row for maximum immersion, middle row for the best value. ✔️ Styling: I recommend the ¥398 option! The professional stylist is incredibly detailed. ✔️ Booking: Weekends are packed, so book 3-5 days in advance! 📍 B1/F, 270 Henan Middle Road, Huangpu District (For parking, navigate to the garage entrance on Fuzhou Road) 🕒 Evening Show: 19:00 - 21:00 #shanghaifood #thebund #hiddengem #immersiveexperience #tasteofchina #shanghaidining #cinematicdining #hanfu #shanghaitravel
