East believes in more sustainable, health-conscious eating without sacrificing taste. Delicious modern Asian flavours, plant-focused dining.

Their chefs, representing culinary talent from Japan, Hong Kong, China, Thailand, India and Sri Lanka, take inspiration from the near and far East - from fresh holy basil found in Thai recipes, Sichuan peppers in China, to shiso leaf commonly found in east Asia kitchens - to present an innovative and flavourful vegetarian menu designed to share.
