Riding the Wind, Galloping on the Palate
ShanghaiJune 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, the Shanghai Da Hongqiao Canhui Hilton Hotel officially joined hands with Lamborghini Shanghai to launch a co-branded afternoon tea titled “Riding the Wind, Galloping on the Palate.” Drawing on supercar design language and the concept of wind-taming on the track, combined with masterful culinary techniques, this collaboration creates an immersive afternoon feast that blends speed aesthetics with luxurious flavors, revitalizing the light luxury afternoon tea experience in the Hongqiao area of Shanghai.

This cross-industry collaboration deeply traces the core essence of supercar creation. The entire co-branded afternoon tea is built around the sharp body lines of Lamborghini supercars, the brand’s color philosophy, and the inspiration of track driving. The hotel’s professional pastry team integrates mechanical aesthetics and Italian supercar DNA into the development, sculpting, and flavor blending of each dish, crafting a sensory feast where speed and elegance intertwine for guests.

The co-branded afternoon tea is divided into three series: savory bites, desserts, and exclusive specialty drinks, with all items meticulously crafted inspired by supercars. The savory bites, themed “Track Style,” feature a black truffle beef mille-feuille that replicates the texture of an engine roar, offering rich and layered flavors; the Huang Feihong prawn baguette blends Chinese and Western tastes for a savory and satisfying bite; and the pea tart adopts the brand’s classic green paint color, restoring the brand’s original color aesthetics. The desserts, centered on “Speed Aesthetics,” are shaped to mimic supercar components and body designs: a pistachio raspberry mousse in the form of a popsicle with gear decorations, a three-dimensional wheel-shaped mint-filled chocolate, and a rum raisin butter ice cookie adorned with the brand’s orange accents. These shapes echo supercar part designs, with sweet and mellow flavors that recreate the taste impact of racing speed. The accompanying lemon passion fruit soda drink, inspired by supercar colors, offers a crisp fruitiness that balances the overall meal’s palate.

“Riding the Wind, Galloping on the Palate” Lamborghini co-branded afternoon tea is now available at the Si Lobby Lounge of the Shanghai Da Hongqiao Canhui Hilton Hotel, priced at 258 RMB per set, served daily from 14:00 to 17:30. This cross-industry collaboration with Lamborghini Shanghai aims to offer high-end consumers and supercar enthusiasts a lifestyle experience that combines topicality and exclusivity. In the future, the hotel will continue to launch more themed events blending luxury brands with culinary creativity.
