“We believe this is a first in China,” said Andrew Haughton, general manager of the hotel.
Clients are offered a tour of the kitchen, before a video presentation and tasting in the
new facility.
The experience is akin to a private dining experience in the chef’s office, albeit one with
a collection of 150 different varieties of wines.
Haughton said: “It’s a place we can explore and learn from our guests’ expectations and see
how we can meet them – not merely a showcase of what we have done.
“Guests get to experience the food and service, and tour the back of house – instead of just dealing with sales staff.”
