Born

Housed in the historic Jinricksha Station, a former rickshaw depot from 1903, Born offers a contemporary dining experience within a modern setting featuring glowing double arches, a high glass ceiling, and an ethereal paper sculpture. Chef Zor Tan, a protégé of André Chiang, curates a 9-course tasting menu that reflects the circle of life and his personal journey, seamlessly blending French gastronomy with Chinese culinary traditions. The dishes are inventive and crafted from globally sourced ingredients, presenting a symphony of contrasting textures and flavors.

At Born, Chef Tan’s unique approach to contemporary cuisine is articulated through nine guiding principles: Birth, Roots, Memories, Craft, Relationship, Vicissitudes, Time, Progress, and Legacy. The result is a menu that is both sophisticated and thoroughly enjoyable, leaving a lasting impression. For those seeking a more intimate experience, the private room offers an ideal setting for guests with an appreciation for Asian palates within the context of French fine dining.
