Classical Hangzhou and Cantonese cuisine at Bai Yun is accompanied by views overlooking a graceful garden. The intense flavour of the braised pork ribs is something to savour.

2. Hu Yin Tea House, Xin Xin Hotel

Hu Yin is one of Hangzhou’s best-kept secrets, frequented by the hip and the bookish. A feast of home-cooked local favourites prepared in the hotel kitchen next door is served with prized brews from the owner’s tea collection. The ambience is reminiscent of a long-lost era.
