Hutong

HK$880 per person

Still delighting spice lovers and out-oftowners after all these years, this skyhigh restaurant dedicated to the punchy flavours of northern China remains consistent in its offerings. The moody lighting—dim, with choice spotlighting on areas such as a wide counter where a Chinese master will demonstrate his noodle-pulling powers—and flawless

view over Victoria Harbour work hand in hand, while the menu of fiery dishes and crowd-pleasing cocktails add to the appeal. Razor clams steeped in a wonderfully garlicky Chinese rose wine sauce, and cloud ear fungus with sinusclearing wasabi both make sensational starters. Come with a group to enjoy larger dishes such as crispy deboned lamb ribs, or a cauldron of tender fish in a sour and spicy pickled vegetable broth.
