Green T. House (Zi Yun Xuan)
If you're comfortable with the sentiment that "dining should be part of a lifestyle experience," you'll love this ultra-chic restaurant. If you think that sounds like pretentious twaddle, try Bellagio's, right next door. The name changes from purple to green in translation; dining at Green T. is a similarly psychedelic experience. The imaginatively prepared food is light, with tea-infused flavors, but the cuisine is beside the point. The minimalist decor and attentive service attracts a fashion-conscious crowd: Before the opening of RBL, this wastherestaurant to be seen at. The stylish owner, a musician who exudes a Zen-like calm, is planning to open a new restaurant in the countryside, a half-hour drive to the east.
