Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic system with over 2,500 years of history. Based on ancient Chinese philosophy, it sees the body as a microcosm where health depends on internal and external balance. TCM works to restore this balance by activating the body's innate healing capacity. A key strength of TCM is its integrated approach, often combining multiple therapies for a more powerful and comprehensive effect.

Guided by the concept of “A feast bridging millennia, where Cantonese charm unites past and present”, this experience transforms dining into an immersive cultural journey. The banquet serves as a bridge between tradition and innovation, with each dish telling a story from Lingnan—such as “Five Rams Bringing Prosperity”, “Dragon Boat of Blessings”, “Lady Xian, the Heroine” and “The Maritime Silk Road”. The experience is further enlivened by performances of Cantonese opera, lion dance, kung fu, Guang embroidery, and dragon boat racing, celebrating and passing on the vibrant heritage of Cantonese and Lingnan culture.
