SHANGHAI, Oct. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The romance of autumn in Shanghai does not exude only from the golden Platanus lining the city's streets but also from the aspirations for a quality life. This fall, The Ritz-Carlton Shanghai, Pudong is extremely happy and proud to be recognized as the #1 hotel in China as well as 12th Best Hotel in the world by Condé Nast Traveler's 31st annual Reader's Choice Award in 2018.

Through his ingenuity, creativity and persistence, chef Renaut received his 3 stars in 2012. Reflecting the hills and water of a wonderland, his dishes, like the natural world, are gentle like placid waves, but stable like the rocks of the peak.

The Michelin two Star chef Marco Sacco travelled from metropolitan cities to the wild mountains and vast deserts to get his inspiration for his cuisine.
