Meet the Bund

No.94 World's 50 Best 2025 — In

Veronica's Take

Meet the Bund, a new dark horse on the global dining scene, just snagged the No. 94 spot on the World's 50 Best list for 2025, and it's easy to see why. This Shanghai hotspot is a masterclass in balancing tradition and innovation, serving up a modern twist on Fujian cuisine—one of China's eight ancient culinary traditions. The menu is a love letter to the region's iconic flavors, while the decor, with its brick-red hues reminiscent of southern Fujian's Minnan houses, offers a stunning contrast to the sweeping views of Shanghai's skyline. It's a pilgrimage-worthy destination for anyone craving a taste of China's rich culinary heritage with a side of contemporary flair.
