This modern “departure” trend has seen plenty of traction overseas as well. The most recent example – as seen in the images above and below – is Liverpool’s new Blind Tiger, a contemporary dim sum joint located in a brick-walled industrial basement that used to house a Kung Fu dojo. It’s broken up into several sections – reception hall, recessed alcoves, lounge area, dining room, outdoor courtyard – each one being distinct from the other. Blind Tiger self-identifies as a “speakeasy-style” room, which in the modern parlance typically translates as dark and cocktail-forward with a price premium paid for the up-front suggestions of quality and cool. The menu is a pan-Asian smorg of “re-imagined” fancies, everything from karaage to pad thai.
