Prior to Covid, we had managed two Japanese restaurants in China (Shanghai and Suzhou) with a local partner, based on our experience in wedding management.
The first restaurant, in Shanghai, was run by a Japanese chef and targeted mainly Chinese with a discerning palate, as well as Taiwanese and Hong Kongers living nearby. The restaurant has been in operation for more than seven years, promoting the traditional Japanese cooking style and homey service.
The second restaurant, Suzhou, also has a Japanese chef, is located in a five-star hotel adjacent to the lakeside, and has a large space. The restaurant has been operating for three years, creating a modern, luxurious, resort-like space with a sense of luxury.
