The founder, Joel Robuchon, is one of the most influential chefs in the world of high-end French dining, with a large number of Michelin-starred restaurants under his umbrella. When this Michelin-starred global restaurant chain arrived in Shanghai, it attracted many pilgrimage diners.

Lublezon has its own bakery, which operates separately from the French restaurant, and all afternoon tea is served by the bakery. The afternoon tea set is in the form of a three-tiered British shelf, but with a strong French style. In addition to the traditional scones, the pastries in the set menu are changed from time to time, and one of the main features of baking is that the pastries are very rich in content and carefully made, which is what makes high-quality French desserts more attractive than English desserts. For example, marinated Scottish salmon roll with sun-cotat cheese, yellowfin tuna mousse with French green beans, curry turkey roll with Corinth grapes and green apples, French caramel apple tart, etc. are all classics, and the portions that can be eaten in one bite are very thoughtful. Among them, the French caramel apple tart is made by slicing apples into thin slices, stacking them on top of each other, and baking them with caramel until they almost melt in your mouth. Except for the sweet taste of coffee puffs, the whole is relatively refreshing, and it is best to go with a pot of strong Assam black tea.

For Asians, authentic French desserts are more popular with sweet-loving people, and the amount of sugar used is far beyond the acceptable range of most people. However, Lubsong invited Japanese and Hong Kong chefs, who on the one hand tastes close to the local tastes in Shanghai, and on the other hand, deliberately reduced the amount of sugar, so most of the desserts were very popular. Pastry chef Weekie Lee from Hong Kong, who trained professionally in Japan, joined the Hong Kong Joel Lubson team in 2008. Takuya, a bakery chef from Japan, has worked at the Grand Hyatt Tokyo and Pangu Seven Star Hotel in Beijing.

Therefore, in the afternoon tea dining area in the lobby, guests also love to order a bakery item, add a pot of hot tea or coffee, and enjoy the whole sweet afternoon. The pineapple lychee mousse with an airy outer layer, the Earl Grey tea cake with a chocolate crunch in the middle, the raspberry lychee cake with cheese and the layered sea salt caramel tart are all super popular items, and they look and taste like well-made works of art, and girls are already drawn to order food at the bakery.

Except for bread control or connoisseurs, low-key bread is rarely appreciated. In fact, the baguettes with uniform pores, the cranberry cheese walnuts with solid ingredients and skillfully baked, the most traditional walnut raisin bread, etc., all reflect the sincerity of the kitchen, and many breads are divided into large and small amounts, and the price is down-to-earth, so don't miss it because of their inconspicuous appearance. Of course, there are flaws in its production, the more fancy vegetable cheese focaccia and matcha milk baguette are toasted in a mediocre way, and the macarons are too sweet to be tasted.

Whether it's a la carte or a set menu, Lubçon will not disappoint you. The décor of the restaurant is very unique, from the iconic red chandelier of the lobson to the living and dining area with red and black tables and chairs. The afternoon tea area is very similar to the open-air seats on the streets of France, whether it is a modern girl in a lace hat or a young man in a T-shirt, they are all engaged in their own topics, and the sound of soft conversation is one after another; Although the layout is compact but not cramped, the waiters are skillful in shuttling among them, the service words are concise and professional, and the atmosphere is quite comfortable. If you're not comfortable with the atmosphere, give preference to nearby Peninsula or Waldorf Astoria.

There is no self-owned parking space in Lubsong, so it is not convenient to park if you drive, and there is no subway station nearby, so it is recommended to take a taxi or take a car.
