The 2,850sq ft restaurant has design elements unique to Chinatown London, including a series of vibrant videos projected around the restaurant, showcasing Fujian street food and culture.
The menu is built on dishes from Shaxian District in Southeast China, offering a diverse selection of plates. These include their take on well-known favourites, Dim Sum, rice boxes, and Cantonese classics alongside traditional ShaXian delicacies such as Salted Duck Gizzard and Pork Stomach in Chilli Oil. Outside, images of the brand’s dishes are projected on the external entrance and an automated robot can be seen chopping fresh noodles in the window.
Deqin Zheng, Owner, ShaXian Delicacies, commented: “ShaXian Delicacies marries tradition and innovation with an extensive menu, and the exciting tech elements are key to our overall offer. Our debut site has been exceptionally popular, and we are so pleased to be expanding further in the capital.”
Julia Wilkinson, Restaurant Director at Shaftesbury, added: “We actively seek refreshing and distinctive brands that can showcase the culture of the Far East at Chinatown London. ShaXian Delicacies is the perfect mix of traditional and contemporary, combining time-honoured dishes with crowd-drawing tech. This is another landmark opening for Chinatown London, and one that strengthens the destination’s importance to the West End.”
