A Message from AVANT team

Flavors we adore from this island where we were born and raised,
and savors that have travelled from all over the world to see us.
Both are somehow destined to meet on the plate.
We come together to create a harmonious whole.

Our restaurant is a hermitage in the city,
we hope you can escape from busy bustling life.
Feel like you are deep in the forest or in the big ocean as you appreciate the blessings of nature.

Never forgetting the diligence and patience of the farmer,
picture the magic of the invisible microorganisms in a glass or on a plate that effervesce your body and mind.

Welcome,
AVANT

Flavor Pilosophy













有根源的味觉创新
The combination of flavours is ever-changing, and we prefer to define our restaurant as an experimental space for flavours rather than traditional Western cuisine, looking for resonance and sublimation from flavours from around the world, and reinterpreting them with modern culinary techniques. Marketed in a way that is acceptable to food lovers, and thus presenting the results of our research and development, underneath the iceberg there is actually a lot of open content that can be dug deeper in the hope of provoking spontaneous thoughts from our guests.
