GLOBETROTTING EPICURE

Hot new eats in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Thailand, London and San Francisco

Hotelier Ian Schrager and chef Jason Atherton are set to heat up Shanghai’s dining scene with three restaurants at The Shanghai EDITION this month. (This also marks their third collaboration, following Schrager’s The New York EDITION and The London EDITION.) Housed on the ground floor, Shanghai Tavern replicates the contemporary British fare of London’s Berners Tavern. Canton Disco, located two floors above, is where diners enjoy Cantonese-inspired plates. Here, Jowett Yu (of Ho Lee Fook and Fukuro in Hong Kong) works with Atherton to create an expansive menu that includes Berkshire Black Pig Char Siu and live Dungerness crab steamed with egg white. London’s izakaya-style restaurant, Sosharu, also makes a debut in Shanghai as HIYA. Perched on the top floor with a rooftop bar, guests can indulge in charcoal-grilled meats while overlooking the Huangpu River. 199 Nanjing Road East, Huangpu, Shanghai, China. Tel: +86 21 5368 9999
