Shanghai Me
Shanghai Me is a restaurant in Dubai International Financial Centre that serves dishes from China and Japan in modern interpretation. The interior was designed by architect Michele Bonan and offers different areas, including a private room with Art Deco elements, plus an extensive menu with dim sum, business menus, and Asian-inspired beverages.
The restaurant is inspired by the rich history of Shanghai, particularly the golden era of that city, which is reflected in the design language of the private room. Its opening follows the trend of modern Pan-Asian concepts in Dubai that blend traditional cooking arts with contemporary cooking techniques.
The name Shanghai Me references the famous Chinese port city on the coast. The restaurant honors this connection through its decor and the way it celebrates Asian cultures, especially during Chinese festivals and celebrations that happen regularly throughout the space.
The restaurant is in a busy business district with easy reach on foot or by car and nearby parking. The space is quiet enough for conversations, but overall the surroundings provide access to cafes and shops, so you can spend the whole day exploring the area.
The hidden Bund club behind a mirrored door is a secret space that comes alive after dining hours, with notable DJs and open late on weekends. The cocktails are named after the twelve zodiac animals, a naming that traces back to a legendary selection by a mythical emperor after a race.
