TATLER SAYS
This understated Cantonese restaurant may not have the flashiest interiors, but the sheer amount of dedication the team put into the development and execution of their dishes speaks louder than anything else. Staunch supporters of local farmers, fishermen and producers, The Chairman is a special kind of restaurant that seeks to promote Cantonese cuisine as a whole—and all those who contribute to its culinary canon. When you're here, be sure to try some of their more recent creations, such as the laborious camphor wood-smoked goose and various claypot rices.
SIGNATURE DISHES
• Steamed fresh flowery crab with aged shaoxing wine, fragrant chicken oil and flat rice noodles
• Steamed crab meat and sakura shrimp sticky rice
• Camphor woodsmoked goose
TATLER TIP
The plain white congee is incredibly underrated and made the traditional way, with a long hard boil to emulsify the stock and grains.
