As dawn lights up the streets of Meizhou, the golden roofs of the Forbidden City also glow with radiance. Executive Chinese Chef James Wang (王春增) of Zijin Mansion at Waldorf Astoria Beijing takes the abundant local bounty and intangible cultural heritage of his hometown – Meizhou’s “seven counties and one district” – as his palette and brush, presenting “Shi Zhao(食朝) – A Hakka Morning Ritual.” This morning feast extends Zijin Mansion’s culinary philosophy of “Hakka Soul, Zijin Taste,” blending the Hakka’s long‑cherished morning rituals with the refined craftsmanship of Zijin Mansion.
