With a little effort on the chef's part, and the use of quality ingredients, any restaurant can make a significant difference to the dining experience.
Located at the basement level of the Tianyuangang International Center's Business Street, the newly opened Cherry Pavilion ( 樱满亭) is a bit difficult to find. But executive chef Zhu Shicai from Shanghai tries to make the foods here better and different.
Zhu worked as a chef in Japan for 20 years. He has served the Japanese emperor, as well as high officials. He believes that only the best ingredients, plus good skills, and a chef who really loves cooking can produce the best dishes.
