In humid weather, customers dine al fresco in what looks like a central courtyard, with live performances on a stage. During a downpour, tarpaulin coverings are rolled up, or you may transfer into one of those glass-walled rooms that can instantly transform into a videoke lounge. The resto can seat 5,000 diners, served by a staff of 1,200. Waitresses and waiters in ancient Chinese costumes have to roller-skate around to bring the food piping hot to your table.
