The Philosophy of Seamstress

The Seamstress philosophy is embedded in the timeless principles of ‘Yin
and Yang’. It permeates through everything we do, the food, the décor,
and our entire approach. At the heart of Yin and Yang is the balance of
colour, and the harmony of texture and flavour.

Our philosophy is steeped in Cantonese cuisine, representing the most

famous and sought after tastes of China, but our inspiration is modern
fusion, the dance of east and west on the palate.
