LOCATIONWith a prime, central location in a stunning 1920's building, JIA Shanghai puts you in the heart of buzzing Nanjing Road, surrounded by shopping and entertainment delights. Major stores are at the doorstep while the Bund, Peoples Square and Shanghai Museum are a short taxi ride away.
DETAILSThe building was constructed in the 1920s and its interiors showcase a stylish take on contemporary Shanghai accommodation, offering airy studios, suites and penthouses that sensitively combine domestic comforts with five star luxury. Issimo has a chalet-chic aesthetic, with seductively plump lounges, antler inspired sculptures and a silky, dark colour palette nicely accented by soft glowing light fixtures.
FOOD AND BEVERAGEThe restaurant’s menu was masterminded by acclaimed celebrity chef Salvatore Cuomo, and the Issimo kitchen is expertly captained by Chef William di Nardo. A rotating lunch banquet menu changes every day of the week, turning the spotlight onto Issimo’s glorious antipasti, woodfire pizza, cured meats and pasta dishes. The complete a la carte menu is overwhelmingly enticing; however the refreshingly knowledgeable staff usually have personal recommendations on the tips of their tongues. Issimo encourages a relaxed, indulgent approach to the dining experience, leaving time to gush over the lengthy wine menu, which rewards readers with a choice selection of Cuban cigars on the last page. Step next door into the buzzing lounge to polish off your rustic meal with a luscious contemporary cocktail.
