September 26, 2016 Category Retail, Weekly
Michelin released its first Shanghai dining guide, awarding from one to three stars to 26 restaurants in the city, with T’ang Court in The Langham Shanghai the only one to get the top three-star rating. Six restaurants have been awarded two Michelin stars. They include Canton 8 – the world’s cheapest restaurant with two stars – Hong Kong-based 8 ½ Otto e Mezzo Bombana, known for its fine-dining Italian cuisine, and Ultra Violet. Of the Shanghai restaurants awarded one star, Hong Kong Cantonese chain Lei Garden’s two locations, in the city’s IFC and iapm malls, were listed along with Seventh Son and Da Dong, among others. The 224-page guide, priced at CNY168, was released in both Chinese and English. The Shanghai Daily reported that one day after receiving a Michelin star, Tai’an Table, a Western restaurant in Changning district, has been forced to shut down for operating without licenses. The restaurant had applied for a business and a catering license when it opened in April, but authorities denied to issue the licenses as regulations do not allow catering venues in a residential building. The restaurant plans to relocate to a new venue, chef Stan Stiller confirmed.
