www.chineselib­rary.com.hk Residing within the historical complex that is Tai Kwun, The Chinese Library is home to classic Cantonese fare with contempora­ry touches. Sharing the floor with Dispensary, a bar adjacent to the space and Statement, an English restaurant, the masterfull­y designed space boasts a vibrant and modern vibe. High ceilings and dim lighting creates intimacy during the evening sitting. The screen doors mimic the design of old Hong Kong, blending in with the historical architectu­re that the establishm­ent resides in. As its name suggests, The Chinese Library aims to educate guests on the finer points of the great cuisine, while bringing a unique touch to its food offerings; from lunch that offers new varieties of dim sum to stylish dinner a la carte options. Guests can anticipate a fine showcase of knife skills where ingredient­s are carefully scored and carved into artistic shapes, as well as improved classics. As the restaurant shares its wine and beverage menu with the adjacent bar, guests can indulge in a detailed selection of wines, by the glass or bottle, as well as creative cocktails made with Chinese infusions and spices. Service is friendly throughout, and they are keen to make suggestion­s on how to build your meal.
