Shanghai Garden Restaurant

Welcome to the Shanghai Garden, Spalding.

Spalding, a town famous for its annual Flower parade, you can find us at “The White Hart” building in the “market Place”. The White Hart Inn as it is known dates back to the 15th century. It is the oldest inn in Spalding and Mary Queen of Scots stayed here in 1566. So when you come and dine at Shanghai Garden you may well be following the footsteps of historical figures!

And who better to head the team of chefs from Shanghai Garden than a chef from Shanghai, China! Yes, our head chef (you can see him on the left) really is from Shanghai with over 17 years of experience having worked as head chef in some of London’s renowned restaurants in Chinatown. Our head chef is a firm believer of the Aroma, Appearance, and Taste philosophy and you only need to look at some of his vegetable carvings to realise how much pride he takes in his craft.

There is an old Chinese philosophy about food. Roughly translated, it says when preparing food one has to consider appearance or colour, fragrance or aroma, as well as taste, as they all compliment one another to form a synergistic relationship. This is the philosophy that we try to follow in all of our restaurants.

We have venues in Spalding, Lincolnshire, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, and we have a take-away at Holbeach in Lincolnshire. We look forward to welcoming you soon.
