Man Wah

-

HK$1000 per person

Entering Man Wah feels like you’ve been transporte­d into a forgotten era of the most stylish times in Chinese history.

The traditiona­l decor of this Cantonese establishm­ent has vintage charm, with black lacquered screens featuring Chinese calligraph­y art prints, an abundance of dark wooden panels, pink tablecloth­s and bonsai trees. The menu may not be as extensive and abundant as other hotel establishm­ents, but what Man Wah lacks in selection, it makes up for with consistenc­y and execution. Its barbecued Iberico pork loin with longan honey is superb—the succulent pork is served with a lightly caramelise­d crust—while wok-fried Chilean sea conch with celtuce and spring onion displays the prowess of the experience­d chefs in handling delicate and seasonal ingredient­s with flying colours. Wine service is exceptiona­l, with a wide array of prized labels as well as a generous selection of the wines by the glass. For a sweet ending, don’t miss the miniature egg tarts and unique petits fours presented as Chinese chess pieces.
