Its brand ambassador David Beckham was in the city for the occasion, while guests from all over the Tatlersphere-including VIPs based in Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, mainland China and Hong Kong-mingled with the star and enjoyed the incredible offerings at the new hotel.
The 72-hour extravaganza from May 23 to 25 kicked off at The Bar at The Residence-the exclusive club at The Londoner Hotel which saw Hong Kong's Eleanor Lam hobnobbing with fellow guests like Terri Kwan, Marion Caunter and Colin Seah, who flew in for the week.
A welcome dinner at Huaiyang Garden followed. It featured dishes curated by master chef Zhou Xiaoyan, who is affectionately known to his followers as the Godfather of Huaiyang cuisine. Seated in a tranquil space modelled after ancient Chinese gardens, the A-listers enjoyed authentic Huaiyang delicacies.
The next day, after an excellent night's sleep, members of the Tatler community were invited to lunch at Churchill's Table. The restaurant is named after the late British prime minister and noted gourmand, with decor inspired by classic food halls inside London department stores.
