Bursting with lavish Chinese symbolism courtesy of World-famous interior designer Joyce Wang. With studios residing in both Hong Kong and London she creates the framework for Tattu’s unique setting. The elemental symbols of the Phoenix, dragon, Koi, and Tiger have been crafted to the top floor of The Now building in aura as well as in aspect.
From the gilded hallways to the silverware, and blown-glass vessels for Tattu cocktails. Illuminated by moody hues of violet, gold, and the pulsating blue of the cityscape that looks in on it. Good fortune, health, and wealth are assured at Tattu’s rooftop party.
At Tattu’s exclusive rooftop dinner party, the menu is the main event. Duck pancakes and noodles are forgone for something artistically elevated. The à la carte Taste of Tattu and Emperor’s choice set menus are created with a passion for art as much as for gastronomy. Courses come in ‘waves’ of flavours and hues reflecting their Chinese roots and metropolitan setting. Exuberant dishes of Wagyu beef, yellowtail and kiwi sashimi, and tenderstem showered by black sesame truffle are show-stoppers. Not to forget an indulgent dessert of Cherry Blossom, a white chocolate and cherry sorbet served with candyfloss rightly beneath the shade of the blossoms that cloak Tattu’s famous courtyard. Every aspect of the menu is thoroughly thought-through, with the utmost indulgence and luxury in mind. This Chinese food has been created for the most sophisticated of patrons. Served with style, intricacy, and flare that will linger on the tongue for days to come.
The quality of food is paired equally to that of the drinks at Tattu’s elevated Chinese restaurant. Bottles of Dom Pérignon are available alongside Tattu’s signature cocktail menu, including the cherry blossom negroni or celestial dragon cocktail for two. Each cocktail made at the ornate Phoenix bar is a performance to rival the live music. Whether in the form of a glass chalice the shape of a dragon, pagoda, skull, or an imaginative champagne-come-teacup, often accompanied by a seductive cloud of smoke. Alternatively, exclusive status as a sunset seeker is accompanied by complimentary cocktails. Paired with each wave of the Taste of Tattu set menu. Among them, the aptly named Golden Hour. From the interiors to the cuisine and cocktails, Tattu London is gilded with affluence and glamour.
Tattu’s previous DJ headliners include Duke Boara, Volen Sentir, and Rodriguez Jr. Tattu has attracted artists with fast-growing success and alternative sounds. Duke Boara’s music, like Wang’s interiors, are an artistic play on a bi-cultural experience. The equilibrium that Tattu exudes is further exhibited through the careful consideration of artists – ones who encapsulate the venue and voice of Tattu. With every wave of the meal, deep and ethnic house music will roll smoothly along with it. Tattu’s exclusive rooftop dinner parties are devoid of ear-splitting heavy bass and dance tunes. Instead, a chilled and chic sound escorts patrons through their meal, from the serenity of a Sunday sunset, into the night.
As Monday approaches fast with the setting sun, patrons of Tattu’s exclusive rooftop party are well equipped for the week. Relaxed, satiated, and yet energized by spending the evening at a Tattu London Sunday Sunset. Spring feels around the corner when sunset seekers have consumed almost every manner of Cherry Blossom imaginable. With eyes, noses, and mouths. Alongside incredible artistry, hypnotic music, and unwavering attention to detail, there is no more perfect way to spend a Sunday. And no better way to welcome in a new week, blues and all.
