Backed by the seventh son of Chui Fuk-chuen, the legendary founder of Fook Lam Moon, this establishment raises the bar when it comes to traditional Cantonese cuisine, prepared with modern techniques.

When it opened in 2013, the restaurant was so successful that branches were launched in Shanghai, Beijing, Tokyo and Osaka. The decor in the Hong Kong eatery is classic wooden panelling with brass accents, setting the stage for what is on the plates.
