It’s a place for superior indulgence! At $400 AUD per person it is expensive but delivers a memorable meal. A party of 3 adults (and 1 baby) enjoyed well paced meal in a private Teppanyaki style dinning room which concluded in a promisingly named “dessert room”.

The waitress was very helpful and guided us thoroughly through the menu with sufficient detail and explanations. The dishes we sampled [...]

Shang Palace Top 3 Chinese restaurant in Bangkok Level 3, Shangri-la Hotel, Bangkok. The most amazing Peking Duck in town! We have Peking duck semi-regularly in Australia but the Peking Duck at the Shang Palace beats the ones we’ve eaten back in Sydney without question.
