The Tea Road spans mountains and oceans. The rich and varied culinary cultures of the cities along the way provide plentiful materials for the innovation of the restaurant's dishes and ingredients. The restaurant emphasizes harmony. Tea is made part of the cuisine. Here, tea and food integrate. Based on Hunan and Cantonese cuisines, by combining the culinary styles and ingredients of the cities along the Tea Road, the restaurant aims to become a top-grade, integrated, creative restaurant brand for tea art, human landscapes, banquets, and business. Inspired by the culture of the Tea Road, based on the brand orientation, with the theme of “The Tea Road, The Natural Experience” and the core conception of “Oriental Upscale Nature,” this design pursues a natural charm of the combination of high-end Oriental culture and modern space to create a premium, elegant, innovative dining environment with a Zen charm, connotation, and elements of diverse cultures. Here, the customers can feel the essence of Oriental cultures. It'll be a refined aesthetic experience of modern cultural significance. The inspiration comes from the lines and structure of tea leaves. Veins and patterns of tea leaves are used for the decoration of internal walls and styling partitions, giving a relaxing feeling from the nature, vividly displaying the beauty of a tea leaf's whole life. By bringing together natural and modern elements, the design creates a serene, graceful, and fashionable visual ambiance. The private rooms are named after spots along the Tea Road with significance. The customers are expected to enjoy the harmony between modern society and traditions and between nature and humanity in this unique space. In the center of the restaurant, a small performance area is specially set up with soft classic Chinese music, for example, an ensemble of the guzheng and bamboo flute, as the background music. While dining, customers can appreciate the charm of Oriental culture through audio. It's also a feast for the eyes. The all-round experience makes the place serene and sentimental.
