Lung King Heen, Hong Kong: World’s Best Chinese?

  • April 29, 2011
  • Brad A. Johnson

Lung King Heen, the fine dining Cantonese restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel in Hong Kong, is quite possibly the best Chinese restaurant in the world.

It was the first Chinese restaurant ever awarded three stars by the Michelin Guide. And absolutely everything about this place—the dumplings, the tea, the barbecue pork and goose, the service, the china, the linens—is truly extraordinary. Bottom line: This isn’t merely one of the best Chinese restaurants in the world, it’s one of the best restaurants in the world, period. Here’s a quick snapshot of my recent lunch.
