This marks the restaurant chain's third appearance at the Olympics, following its participation in the 2008 Beijing Games and the 2022 Beijing Winter Games. This year's Paris Olympics is its first venture into providing dining services for an overseas China House.

"French cuisine is celebrated as the 'pinnacle of Western dining', renowned for its delicate flavors, rich sauces, and elegant presentations. In contrast, Sichuan cuisine, with its millennia-old tradition, offers a rich variety and distinctive style," says Wang Gang, founder of the restaurant chain. "When representing Chinese cuisine, it must be unique, flavorful and presentable."

To deliver an exceptional dining experience, the restaurant chain assembled a 24-member service team, including 10 chefs with over 15 years of experience each.

"Our extensive experience at the Olympics has equipped us with a robust set of practices and techniques, enabling us to handle challenging situations with confidence — reflecting the true Olympic spirit," Wang says.

The carefully curated menu features traditional Sichuan specialties, such as Kung Pao shrimp, sugarcoated popcorn and iced jelly. Additionally, to meet diverse guest needs, the team prepared multiple menus, including daily offerings, banquet, halal, tea break, and Sino-French culinary exchange options.

Wang says that their dishes have been met with enthusiastic acclaim from international guests, staff, volunteers and athletes. "Guests have praised our offerings as 'delicious and a true taste of home', with particular acclaim for the spicy chicken and Kung Pao shrimp," Wang says.

"We remain dedicated to our mission of 'serving people around the world', embracing the Olympic spirit, pushing boundaries, and turning the impossible into possible," Wang says. "Our goal is to introduce the world to Chinese cuisine and foster a deep appreciation for Sichuan flavors."
