DESCRIPTION

Park Chinois started life as a conversation about the 1930’s; the era of the dinner and dance, Big Band sound, the Cotton Club, but an idea needs historical context and intellectual grounding to progress, it cannot be stuck in time or it risks becoming a parody. It needs to move forward not backward; never repeat, always evolve. Park Chinois occupies a niche, and offers a counter balance to the current club culture. It brings about a rebirth of the Dinner Dance aesthetic, a modern interpretation underpinned by old school values. Park Chinois is about being entertained and delighting people, with grace, charm and elegance. Alan Yau

WELCOME TO PARK CHINOIS

Park Chinois pays homage to the Dinner & Dance of yesteryear.

The interior is inspired by the aesthetics of Chinoiserie; a blend of the romance of French elegance and the mystique of the Orient, and the theatrical dining rooms offers a space and experience that allows the guest to participate as performer and voyeur, audience and actor.

Menus are largely influenced by the geographical and culinary travels of both Alan Yau and Head Chef Lee Che Liang. The food is Chinese but not defined by a specific region, allowing the elevation of for dishes through exploration and experimentation with superior produce.

At Park Chinois we aspire to bring back the joy of the Dinner Dance, where music provides romance and enchantment to the dining experience. Live music floods the venue, from the Diva vocals and eight-piece band in the Salon de Chine, to the more contemporary sounds and performances of emerging artists in Club Chinois.

Park Chinois is more than a meal, it is your whole night out, and we aspire to entertain and enchant you throughout.

SALON DE CHINE

Salon de Chine is the stunning ground floor of Park Chinois. An opulent room showcasing the best of French Chinoiserie, its’ eclectic palette of materials create a feeling of warmth and indulgence through a richness of colour and a sense of abundance.

The dining room is set to be suggestive of a theatre; comprising a “circle” of tables surrounding the stage with a raised “balcony” of intimate banquette seating just above, drawing the focus of the room towards the live band. Salon de Chine comes alive at night when it plays host to Diva vocals supported by the 8 Clouds of Joy, our eight-piece house band, every evening.

Dim sum lunch, afternoon tea and dinner are served daily in the Salon de Chine.

CLUB CHINOIS

Downstairs at Park Chinois is the dazzling Club Chinois. Here the dining room delivers you into an era of decadence and indulgence, gilded columns proudly lighting the way through the bar to the main dining area, which boasts purple velvet banquettes and gold mirrored tables. The seating arrangement once again theatrically arranged, with seating surrounding the dancefloor, and further tables at balcony level above, drawing focus to the large stage.The music direction at Club Chinois is more contemporary, playful and the stage frequently hosts emerging artists and DJs.

Dinner is served in Club Chinois from Sunday through to Saturday.

TASTING MENUS

The Park Chinois Menu has been serendipitously developing for years, each dish has been largely influenced by the geographical and culinary travels of Alan and Head Chef, Lee Che Liang. The menus devised are a collection of their favourite dishes elevated by sourcing superior ingredients, driven by the seasons.

The Duck de Chine is based on a Peking recipe and is the prologue to the menu, it is our opening act and has become the dining pre-requisite at Park Chinois, with or without caviar.

The rest of the menu is a showcase of Chinese dishes that have either been elevated by utilising more refined ingredients, or remain untouched, staying true to their Chinese heritage.

A mindfully tailored selection of tasting menus have been designed for groups and special events to further enhance special dining occasions.

MUSIC

“We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.” friedrich nietzsche

Park Chinois offers an extensive music program, available for private events. Specially-tailored live entertainment, from our varying roster of the finest musicians and performers, can be produced for both the Salon de Chine and Club Chinois.

The in-house live band, The Four Clouds of Joy, consists of a variety of instrumentalists from a pianist, saxophonist, bassist, drummer, violinists, cellists and harpist to a string quartet orchestra. Resident and guest divas, who work across various genre styles from unique, contemporary covers to reworked swing classics, can be arranged for the Salon de Chine, whilst Club Chinois singers are more modern and often electronic-leaning, with backing musicians or tracks for live PA sets.

The Park Chinois resident DJs are a widely-varying team of skilled performers who play across different styles for downtempo, lounge events, to swinging jazz, as well as more upbeat electronic sets for late night parties.

Both floors at Park Chinois are equipped with professional and comprehensive in-house stage lighting and sound, and A/V technicians can be provided as needed. Full technical specifications are available on request.
