With social distancing still very much part of our vernacular for 2021, those choosing restaurants based on their privacy proficiency should look to Yong Yi Ting at Mandarin Oriental Shanghai. It was awarded a Michelin star in 2017, by the first-ever Michelin Restaurant Guide in mainland China, and its reputation holds true four years on. With a vision to explore and celebrate the diversity of Shanghai’s food scene, and its neighbouring Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, consultant Chef Tony Lu pays attention to delicate seasonal ingredients, harnessing light, delicate flavours and the aromatic scents of Shanghai. To sate yourself in true seclusion, choose Yong Yi Ting’s chef’s table or choose the 10-seat table above, flanked by elegant floor-to-ceiling lattice screens for an elevated experience.
