Lion X Has Arrived in the Neighbourhood!

Lion X Has Arrived in the Neighbourhood!

Inspired by a culture of Lion dancing, Lion X is a modern Chinese restaurant specialising in Cantonese and Szechuan cuisine.

Most people believe that lion dancing began in the late Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD) when lions were brought to Northern China from Central Asia as gifts for the emperor, and representations of the beast began to be incorporated into existing traditions. Based on the Chinese’s depiction of a mythical creature, the lion’s anatomy casts away bad spirits. While the dance itself symbolises luck and fortune.

Open for lunch (12pm-3PM) and dinner (6pm-10.30pm), Lion X, which is headed by a Chinese Chef, Alex Kuan, offers an a la carte menu to the diners. Located right beside the R Bar, this new Chinese specialities dining venue in the South is set to cater to up to 114 people, including in a private dining room and an outdoor dining area. A very contemporary designed Chinese Restaurant, diners will encounter a stylish Chinese lounge in front of the main door. Dominated by green and red colours on its interior, representing good luck and wealth, Lion X showcases unscripted art pieces in the entire venue.
