China House

Remember that scene from Only God Forgives where Yayaying, Ryan Gosling and Kristen Scott Thomas meet up in a fancy dining room with jaw-dropping interiors? That was shot at the China House at the Mandarin Oriental. Awardwinning design studio Neri & Hu dressed up the dining room in seductive modern Chinese aesthetics, taking inspiration from 1930s Shanghai art deco. The food, especially the dim sum, courtesy of chef Andy Leong Siew Fye, is just as amazing.
