Robert De Niro, yes the acting legend himself, has joined forces with the Shanghai Bund investment group to open a series of fine dining restaurants along the Bund. The restaurants will be modeled after 1920s Shanghai (of course they will be, it is the bygone era everyone wishes they had been alive to witness), and will be part of a larger entertainment complex named Project 179 (after a city-designated tract of land) that includes a cinema, shopping center, and five-star hotel.
Of the project, De Niro had this to say: “By ensuring a design that reflects the vibrant history of Shanghai, Project 179 can serve as a jewel in its crown: ushering in a bright future while paying homage to its rich and storied past.”
