- Sushi Takeshi★ Michelin Chef Kin’s stints at famous sushi-ya in Hong Kong and Japan explain his exceptional sushi making skills and artistry. According to the oiliness of each fish, he pairs it with rice dressed in one of his two vinegar blends. A single omakase menu is served, composed entirely of ingredients flown in from Japan, such as umami-laden kuruma prawn that is perfectly cooked and boasts bouncy, juicy flesh. The lunchtime menu is a bargain. By reservation only.277m
- Fu Ho★ Michelin Thanks to his considerable experience and skilfully executed dishes, the head chef has been enticing diners back here for over a decade. Named after the owner, the signature Ah Yung abalone is slowly braised in a secret sauce for up to 20 hours. Fried hump-head garoupa served in a claypot is perfumed with ginger, garlic, scallion and cilantro and boasts bouncy skin and crisp tasty meat. The dining room feels elegant and relaxing.321m

Leopard coral grouper can be steamed with ginger and scallion, shredded pork and mushrooms, or deboned and sautéed with dried tangerine peel and olive-pickled mustard leaves.466m

A dress code applies at dinner.675m
- Chaat★ Michelin ‘Chaat’ means ‘to lick’ in Hindi, as the food here is so finger licking good. The menu covers an extensive range of pedigree Indian classics from spruced-up street snacks to ambitious creations based on tradition. The tandoori oven is put to good use as evidenced by their juicy, perfectly spiced black pepper chicken tikka. The glazed kitchen lets diners watch the chefs in action as they deliver an entertaining experience.705m
- Sushi Wadatsumi★ Michelin Here, edomae sushi is made with the freshest catch flown in from Japan five days a week, most of which is wild- or line-caught.

If you’re lucky, you may get to taste live baby cuttlefish, available only for two weeks in the year. There is a private room available that seats up to eight guests.751m
