Kanpai beefs up Beijing's Japanese scene

Founded in 2005 in Taiwan, Japanese barbecue restaurant chain, Kanpai Classic, has finally landed in Beijing, officially opening on April 24.

Located in the Wangfujing area, the capital's first Kanpai Classic has inherited the cozy and delicate atmosphere from its Taiwan counterpart, and its 14 private dining rooms all share a beautiful view of the Palace Museum.

Ten years after the brand was founded in Taiwan, in the summer of 2015, Kanpai Classic was first introduced to Shanghai and gained a Michelin star in 2017 and 2018.
