At a glance

T’ang Court is the Cantonese restaurant on the fifth floor of The Langham, Shanghai, Xintiandi. The kitchen is led by chef Tony Su and serves Cantonese classics with seasonal dishes; the MICHELIN Guide highlights crispy lacquered chicken, wok-fried prawns with scallion and shrimp roe, and crab-and-shrimp beggar’s purse. The restaurant holds two MICHELIN stars in 2026 and has ten consecutive years of MICHELIN honours.[1] [2]

Cooking & identity

The cooking is Cantonese at the hotel-fine-dining register: classical technique, premium ingredients and a few seasonal additions, with the wok and sauce work doing the talking. The room is plush, but the guide’s description stays on the chicken, prawns and beggar’s purse.[1] [2]

The restaurant’s stated philosophy

Paraphrased from the restaurant, its group or a named chef’s statement.

The hotel’s official page frames T’ang Court as a Cantonese fine-dining room built on the finest ingredients, classic dishes and a set-menu option, with two MICHELIN stars in 2026 and ten consecutive MICHELIN years.

The MICHELIN Guide adds the kitchen’s signature dishes and the chef’s name, while the hotel page adds the Forbes Four-Star status.

Why this profile is included

Included through two MICHELIN stars, a named chef and an official hotel statement with ten consecutive MICHELIN years and Forbes Four-Star status. No dated collaboration was verified for this batch; that does not mean none took place. No separate chef dossier is published because the cited public record does not provide enough career nodes.[1] [2]

Independent observations

ChefsLanding · · Editorial commentary on the public record

A hotel Cantonese restaurant with ten consecutive MICHELIN years is a machine for consistency. The useful question is whether the machine still has a pulse: is the chicken cooked for the guest, or for the guide?

Tony Su’s name gives the kitchen a face, but the official page gives him no biography. That is a gap worth naming: a restaurant can be excellent and still treat its chef as a staffing line.
