Celebrity chef and culinary powerhouse Wolfgang Puck unveils a reimagined dining concept at his signature Chinese restaurant by Wolfgang Puck, located on the 24th floor of The Ritz-Carlton, Los Angeles. Building upon the modern interpretation of traditional Chinese cuisine for which the venue is known, the newly evolved WP24 now offers a refined a la carte menu complemented by a subtle dƩcor update and new serving attire, all the while featuring the same breathtaking views offered since its debut.

ā€œOver the past few years, we have seen a big shift in the way people are dining,ā€ says chef and restaurateur Wolfgang Puck. ā€œFine dining is no longer determined by a white linen on the table, but by the quality of the entire dining experience, beginning to end. We want our guests to enjoy WP24 however they choose, whether thatā€™s a family-style dinner, a quick meal before a game or a full tasting menu. Chef John and I are excited to share this new experience with you and hope you enjoy.ā€

With the transition to an a la carte menu, Chef de Cuisine Chef John Lechleidner also adds new items such as the XO Seafood Dumplings with sweet shrimp, Alaskan king crab, and Maine lobster; Soy Glazed Kurobuta Pork Shanks with golden chives, garlic, and Hong Kong noodles; and Maine Diver Scallops with mustard greens, radish, Chinese black bean and chili oil. The new menu will continue to feature signature dishes such as Wolfgang Puckā€™s renowned Whole Roasted Duckling. Additions from Executive Pastry Chef Megan Potthoff include farmerā€™s market-inspired desserts, such as the Passion Fruit SoufflĆ©, served tableside with coconut tapioca, passion fruit sauce, and a coconut pandan ice cream.

The beverage program will continue to offer an extensive wine list and a selection of sake, in addition to rotating specialty cocktails with an Asian twist, such as the Tokyo Time TravelerĀ featuring Plymouth Gin, Poochi Sake, shiso leaves, and lemon; the Concubineā€™s Kiss with Absolut Pears Vodka, Domaine de Canton Ginger, yuzu, and pear; and the Dragonā€™s Fire with Patron Anejo Tequila, grapefruit, and jalapeno.
