Tracey Furniss

This two-storey bar-restaurant is the brainchild of Charlene Dawes, managing director of Tastings Group; Antonio Lai, of Quinary, Origin and The Envoy; and chef Vicky Cheng. The 29th-floor lounge serves cocktails while the restaurant above offers a 10-course seasonal tasting menu.
Diners sit on high stools at a counter that looks onto an open kitchen. There is also a private room. The seasonal contemporary dishes are beautifully plated and taste just as good. Chinese ingredients are used with French cooking techniques, with signatures like roasted sea cucumber, Taiyouran eggs with sugar peas, and whole roasted chicken with clay pot rice and chestnut. There are two desserts: one sweet, one savoury.
