China Chilcano Restaurant in Washington, USA

AXO LIGHT

Inspired by the fusion of cuisines represented on the menu, José invites guests into a space that blends Peruvian, Chinese and Japanese cultures. Nothing was more indicated to reproduce the oriental atmosphere than Bell suspensions.

With a design motif that separates itself from traditional folklore, José reimagines China Chilcano with a contemporary and personal take on a large, grand dining room - a welcoming and popular space in which to dine. Full of creative art, this concept follows José Andrés’ unique style, creating a singular space with a touch of the extravaganza.

Guests may stop at the entry of the dining room, which has a street-like feel and an industrial-style bar.

Moving along to China Chilcano’s main dining room, which is bigger and more formal, guests will find a large, round table surrounded by bamboo along with other smaller tables round tables for easy sharing. For guests who want to enjoy a more relaxed atmosphere, China Chilcano will offer tables with comfortable sofas. This area features a special Tatami Japanese-style table.

Making their way down to the very end of the restaurant, guests will find a more private space featuring a ceviche bar, one of the staples of Peruvian cuisine.

For China Chilcano, José offers a myriad of spaces to choose from, so each guest can enjoy this culinary experience in a unique way.
