No wonder nights at White have been described as “nothing short of spectacular.” Diners arrive around 8PM and by 1AM the scene turns into a full-on nightclub as dinner plates are traded in for dancing shoes and flirtatious moves.

An elevator providing a direct access to the bar gives a magnificent panoramic ride to the top.
