Shook Shanghai was named 'Best Modern Restaurant' by Modern Weekly at the Modern Weekly 2011 Best Restaurants Awards.
The
open-concept kitchen opened its doors in July last year and was rated
No. 1 restaurant in Shanghai by TripAdvisor. It occupies the penthouse
floor of The Swatch Art Peace Hotel, a Renaissance-style 1906 heritage
landmark on the Bund. The glorious view of The Bund is an added
incentive to make Shook! your must-visit restaurant while in Shanghai.
Commenting
on the award, James Mcbride, President of YTL Hotels said: "It is
indeed a great honour for Shook! Shanghai to have been awarded "Best
Modern Restaurant" at the Modern Weekly 2011 Best Restaurants Awards.
Shook!'s distinctive concept in an iconic landmark that is The Swatch
Art Peace Hotel, makes for a truly unforgettable dining experience. Its
uniquely designed open-kitchen conveys the feel of "dining without
borders" - intimate, nothing hidden, open to all."
Helmed
by Executive Chef Kevin Cape, Shook!'s open culinary theatre comprises
four master chefs and four distinct cuisines. The unique menu features
whispers of Chinese, Japanese, Southeast Asian and modern Western
cuisines, yet is flexible enough to transport you anywhere your heart
and palate desires. Signature dishes include snow white dancing prawns
(stir-fried prawns with hot mayonnaise sprinkled with honey-glazed
walnuts), confit of slow-cooked salmon, and cajun-style sea bass.
