The initiative will bring together some of the city's most distinctive dining concepts, curating a contemporary expression of Shanghai's evolving food culture.
To kick of the campaign, the hotel has joined forces with creative plant-based restaurant DULI, newly crowned Vegan & Vegetarian Restaurant of the Year at the That's Shanghai Food & Drink Awards.

Together, they invite guests to press pause and RESET—not by turning down the volume, but by tuning in to a new kind of balance.
This limited-time menu at Shanghai Tavern, running March 13 to May 31, is a thoughtful exploration of structure, contrast, and the art of redistribution.
A Dialogue Between
Two Culinary Worlds
At the heart of this collaboration is a conversation between two distinct approaches to flavor.
DULI, a plant-based restaurant known for its bold, Sichuan-inflected plant-based cuisine, brings fire and structure to the table.
Shanghai Tavern responds with restraint and local memory, offering a contemporary take on familiar Shanghainese ingredients.
The result is a five-course menu that doesn't simply layer styles, but builds tension and harmony through contrast, a journey that moves between intensity and subtlety, heat and calm.
What's on the Table
Chongming Aubergine
Shanghai Tavern
A tribute to local ingredients, this dish balances softness and smokiness with lemon ricotta and smoked chili paste.
Mapo Tofu Hummus | DULI
A signature creation that brings together the numbing heat of Sichuan pepper and the creamy depth of chickpea purée, topped with cherries and pinenuts.
Yan Du Xian | Shanghai Tavern
A reimagined classic, featuring tofu-stuffed morels, bamboo, and deep-fried daikon cake in a vegetarian take on the Shanghainese favorite.
Sichuan Dan Dan Noodle | DULI
Spinach noodles and cucumber ribbons tossed in a peanut-tahini sauce, finished with crispy nori peanuts—familiar, yet refreshed.
Dark Chocolate Chai Cake | DULI
Warm spiced cake paired with coconut lime ice cream and fresh berries, offering a closing note that's both restrained and indulgent.
More Than a Meal
RESET is not about reducing intensity—it's about redistributing it. Each dish is composed with intention, inviting diners to experience spring not as a season of softness alone, but as one of renewed structure and sensory clarity.
Whether you're a longtime fan of plant-based dining or simply curious about the evolving landscape of Shanghai's food scene, this collaboration offers a rare chance to taste the dialogue between two kitchens—and to find your own rhythm between depth and balance.
