Overview

Say Dunhuang brings the legendary allure of the Silk Road to Shanghai North Bund. More than a restaurant, it is an immersive cultural venue where every performance and dish tells ancient Dunhuang’s tale.

Blending classical Chinese dance, acrobatics and storytelling, the show boasts breathtaking lighting and grotto-themed sets.
Complementing the performance is a curated menu of creative Chinese cuisine themed on Dunhuang art and legends. It features cold starters, braised dishes, roasts and desserts, artistically plated with desert and grotto aesthetics.
- Lunch 11:50 AM, Dinner 6:50 PM
- Traditional costume rental and makeup service are only available with a banquet ticket. Guests needing makeup sevice are suggested to arrive early to enjoy the show without rush.
