Jade on 36 has been the flagship French restaurant of Shanghai for its creative and stylish dishes for a long time. Yet, the new chef de cuisine Franck-Elie Laloum has added his own creative gems to the crown.
Laloum is from Valence in the south of France and previously worked at three Michelin three-star restaurants from 2000 - 2011. They include Pavillon Ledoyen in Paris and Maison Troisgros in Roanne, and two Michelin two-star restaurants, namely La Palme d'Or and La Villa des Lys in Cannes.
He takes pride in his newly defined "New Age French Food", in which he presents new flavors using high-quality ingredients and adds new twists to classical recipes.
