The restaurant: The brunch is split across two restaurants on two levels—the chic Twenty-Seven Bites and the more formal China Table. The former serves a range of international brunch favorites, as well as Indian, Vietnamese and Thai flavors, while a DJ spins low-tempo house tracks; the latter is a more traditional Chinese affair. There’s also a kids’ corner.
