The Bridge

Chengdu, China

The Bridge, on Chengdu’s historical Anshun Bridge, is the first restaurant on mainland China from Taiwan-born chef André Chiang (who was behind the Asia’s 50 Best high flyer Restaurant André, now closed). The modern design is balanced out with imagery of Chinese mythological creatures and symbolic lanterns throughout, there to remind diners of the ancient roots of the cuisine and the location. A traditional Sichuan-flavoured set menu takes guests on a culinary journey in the style of a Chinese banquet. Classical dishes using local produce are twisted by executive chef Li Shunhong with modern gastronomy, playing with textures and spices to bring Sichuan into today’s food scene. There are even some obscure historical recipes resurrected, albeit molecularly, for the meal.
