The Jollibee Group has opened its first Michelin-starred Tim Ho Wan restaurant in Shanghai’s Changning District.
In a statement, Jollibee said the new Tim Ho Wan branch is located in Nanfeng City Shopping Mall and is a few minutes’ drive from the Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, which ranks among the busiest airports in China.
The first Tim Ho Wan branch debuted in Mainland China in September 2020 and the Shanghai store is the mainland’s third Tim Ho Wan branch. It offers authentic Hong Kong dim sum recipes.
The new branch features two floors and an alfresco dining area in order to safely accommodate up to 126 customers.
“We’re thrilled to continue expanding the Michelin-starred Tim Ho Wan in Mainland China. We are targeting to open 100 restaurants within the next four years,” said Jollibee Foods Corporation China President Shirley Chang.
Jollibee Group has entered into a joint venture agreement with the Tim Ho Wan Group to open and operate Tim Ho Wan restaurants in Mainland China.
Three more branches of Tim Ho Wan are set to open by September in strategic locations in Shanghai’s Hongkou, Jing 'an, and Minhang Districts.
