The Bistro Group’s latest brainchild, Red Lotus by Modern Shanghai, is set to blossom in Bonifacio Global City on April 1. This fresh face in town, the spirited younger sister to Modern Shang, offers an extraordinary blend of tradition and trend. This isn’t your average Chinese joint; Red Lotus by Modern Shanghai is a stylish sanctuary that channels the electric energy of modern Shanghai and elevates classic Chinese cuisine to new heights.
A Cozy Oasis for Day or Night
From the moment you step through the doors, Red Lotus welcomes you with a cozy and stylish vibe. Ambient music sets the perfect mood for dining and wining anytime you feel compelled, whether it’s a casual lunch with colleagues or a night of winding down with friends.
Drawing inspiration from modernized Chinese motifs, the design of Red Lotus captivates with its intricate details. The ceiling, adorned with arched portals and patterned elements, mimics the modern skyline of Shanghai. Sunlight streams through the gaps between the forms, symbolizing the mighty Huangpu River, central Shanghai’s lifeblood. As daylight fades, the ambiance transforms, mirroring Shanghai’s evolution into a vibrant urban hub after dark. This subtle transition reflects Shanghai’s transformation – a bustling metropolis by day that transforms into an urban watering hole come nightfall.
From the dramatic black accents to rich red hues and hints of gold, every aspect of Red Lotus exudes sophistication. With its Instagram-worthy aesthetics, this resto-bar is a feast for the senses.
The Heart of the Lotus: The Bar
The bar area stands as the centerpiece, offering a warm, intimate setting for guests to unwind. Whether you’re in the mood for a bold cocktail or a non-alcoholic concoction, the mixologists are ready to whip up playful concoctions like the “Sichuan Sour” or the “Dragon’s Potion.” Feeling virtuous? Opt for a refreshing mocktail like the “Pineapple Mint Fizz” or the “Coco Basil.” The soundtrack adds another layer to the experience, transporting you straight into the heart of a Shanghai nightscape.
Modern Twists on Timeless Flavors
Food is where Red Lotus truly shines. The menu boasts a selection of classic Chinese dishes reimagined with a modern twist. Think melt-in-your-mouth Mongolian Glazed Beef Tenderloin, the intriguing (and possibly divisive) Century Egg Tofu, Tung-bor Peachy Glazed Pork, Roast Duck and their signature Xiao Long Bao – each dish a testament to the culinary artistry at play. Forget greasy takeout; Red Lotus takes Chinese cuisine to new levels, offering a sophisticated and innovative dining experience.
Red Lotus is more than just a place to grab a bite. It’s an immersive experience, a stylish escape into the heart of modern Shanghai. With its focus on good company, innovative cocktails, and next-level takes on Chinese fare, Red Lotus is poised to become BGC’s hottest new address.
