On May 30th, indulge yourself with a mid-week break in a fine and innovative venue, eating, drinking and gathering with other gourmets. Hosted at freshly Michelin starred and 2017 Time Out Restaurant of The Year WUJIE Shanghai The Bund, the Wine & the City guys challenged themselves to pair organic wines (starting from 1995) with vegetarian delicacies.
Champagne will be served as a welcome drink, before each guest will be served WUJIE’s Cloud menu, a creative and colorful 8 course, vegetarian gourmet feast. You’ll be surprised by the multiple possibilities and flavors a meat-free dinner can offer, you won’t even miss meat! Some dishes are representing Chinese natural sceneries, perfect for Instagram addicts or compulsive Wechat users. Laurent from Wine & the City will host the dinner and share with you details of organic viticulture.
You’ll spend the evening with 20 other food and wine lovers, so grab a date, your meat-eater and vegetarian-food skeptical friend, or fly solo and enjoy a toast with new friends!
