A Holly Jolly Hotpot Christmas at JW Marriott Marquis
If you're going to exceed your turkey quota this Christmas, the JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Shanghai Pudong has something completely different in store.The decorations here are boldly extravagant – because why should the holidays hold back?
A magnificent Christmas tree takes center stage in the atrium, while overhead, an audacious 10-meter-tall neon Santa boldly scales the hotel's exterior.
It's undoubtedly visible from space, and a fitting beacon for what's inside.Your Christmas surprise awaits in Merchant Kitchen, where the traditional festive feast has been flipped on its head, spun around and set alight.
No turkey here, instead a simmering hotpot to take away the winter chills. It's daringly deviant and bordering on genius.
First choose one of three varieties of soup: a rich lamb bone broth, nutty satay, or a comforting umami mushroom.
