The new Chinese fine dining establishment captures Shanghai’s artistic heritage with a showcase of its refined cuisine

After the success of Mango Tree, Gonpachi, and An Nam, 1957 & Co will be launching two new restaurants this season at Lee Gardens Two in Causeway Bay. This will be the restaurant group’s second Shanghainese establishment, the first after last year’s launch of Modern Shanghai, and is set to soft open end of January 2018.

Taking a spacious spot within the Lee Gardens arcade, 10 Shanghai is designed by Steve Leung Designers, fusing the artistic heritage of 1920s Shanghai in forms of ‘Chinese deco’, where Western art fuses with Shanghainese traditions. Guests entering through the traditional Chinese moon gate trellis can indulge in Shanghainese gourmet dishes within the handsome quarters embellished with wooden furnishing and tones of turquoise and green. The addition of petite lamps hanging from mirrored ceiling creates depth to the space, while brass grille screen designs add contemporary art deco style to the interiors.

Celebrated for its intricate knife work and high respect to seasonality, reflected through vibrant cold dishes and long braises, 10 Shanghai’s cuisine brings close resemblance to that of Huaiyang origin, ranging from Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Shanghai. The kitchen team is led by experienced chef Ben Luen, preparing the establishment's Shanghainese classics such as Jiang river shrimps sautéed with crab roe, deep-fried baby yellow croaker with seaweed, Huaiyang style double-boiled stuffed duck, Dongpo’s pork pagoda, crispy smoked chicken with tea leaves, and pan-fried xiao long bao.

Live performance of Shanghainese classic tunes are scheduled throughout dinner service for a full experience at 10 Shanghai, which is set to soft open end of January 2018.
