TATLER SAYS

A real classic in the city, open since 1991, where you can rely on your favourite Cantonese dishes to be executed with flair and finesse. The upscale dining room has a sense of occasion thanks to its exceptionally high gilded ceilings and carved wooden doors, making it a favourite among those looking to celebrate in groups or impress a client over a dim sum lunch.

SIGNATURE DISHES

Steamed fresh crab claw with winter melon in egg white and Yunnan ham Stir-fried fresh lobster with crispy preserved vegetable, goji berries, crispy rice, spring onions, red onions and shallots

Chilled sago cream with mango juice and pomelo
