Hot Shots: Jason Chan and Salone Design Lonely Noodle Shop, a Pop-Up Restaurant in Shanghai
Jason Chan and mononym Salone—graduates in fashion design from Raffles College in Singapore and textile design from Istituto Marangoni in Milan, respectively—were already partners in the clothing brand ACO when they founded their Shanghai-based interiors firm, J&Dragon Group, in 2020. An early project, this 1,500-square-foot pop-up restaurant, open between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m. only, is aimed at the city’s many young solitary diners who eat comfort food in windowed, one-person booths encircling a performance space offering convivial live entertainment.
