In the second edition of the Michelin guide Shanghai, Ultraviolet joins T’ang Court in the exclusive three-starred club, a designation that denotes exceptional cuisine, worth the journey. Opened in 2012, Ultraviolet elevates the dining experience to a multi-sensory, interactive form of entertainment that stretches the imagination and challenges the conventional à la carte dining model, in which dishes are presented under the same décor, and to the same music. To evoke the smell of the forest floor, atomizer sprays may infuse the room with the smell of soil. In 2012, the French chef was named the inaugural recipient of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants awards’ Lifetime Achievement Award. Overall, a total of 129 restaurants get nods in the sophomore edition of the Michelin guide Shanghai, including 30 starred addresses.
