Lowdown

The detente between China and France has now been made complete with the opening of the Shangri-La hotel's swish Shang Palace restaurant, the first genuine haute Cantonese restaurant in the capital. Amidst glittering chandeliers and ethereal artistic reminders of Imperial China, Frank Xu's menu makes no concessions to Western palettes. Rather, everything from crispy suckling pig to lion's head soup is done to sublime authenticity. Three private dining rooms are named for the Tang, Ming and Qing dynasties, for those nights when only the most regal treatment will do.
