Award-winning Cantonese restaurant Lychee Oriental has revealed a new look after a major refurbishment.
Inspired by the restaurants and coffee houses of Chongqing in south-west China, the new-look restaurant brings oriental glamour and decadence to Mitchell Street in Glasgow.
Its taupe and creme furnishings, low ceilings, plush dining chairs and modern lighting fixtures have been matched with a new colour scheme and soft furnishings.
Celebrity chef Jimmy Lee devises menu for new restaurant in Lanarkshire
Head chef Jimmy Lee is a star of the BBC's Great British Menu and Channel 4’s My Kitchen Rules. He was named Scottish Personality Chef of the Year at last year's Food & Drink Awards and won Best Asian Restaurant in Scotland at the Entertainment Awards.
He said: “We didn’t want to radically change the fabric of the restaurant or the spirit of Lychee's dining experience. Instead, we wanted to enhance the lively atmosphere and energy that our space has become known for.
"Lychee Oriental has an amazing support network around us and we hope that all of our guests, both regulars and first-timers love our transformation.”
