Since early 2023, North 51 Consulting has been pivotal in steering the project in line with the brand’s vision.
The design of China Tang Dubai will echo the aesthetic found in its other locations, drawing inspiration from its branches in London’s Mayfair, Hong Kong and Beijing.
The restaurant will feature two levels connected by a guest elevator and an internal staircase, offering patrons a choice between the elegant main dining area and the exclusive lounge upstairs.
In addition to the brand’s signature dishes, China Tang Dubai will also present an extensive selection of fine beverages.
Abbas said: “China Tang Dubai epitomises a harmonious blend of timeless elegance and culinary mastery. We are privileged to be integral to this remarkable endeavour and are dedicated to delivering an unparalleled dining experience that reflects the rich heritage and sophistication synonymous with the China Tang brand.”
