The Experience

From Michelin Guide

The Bvlgari Hotel's Chinese restaurant is nestled in an adjacent century-old building, complete with six private rooms inspired by Bvlgari jewellery. Solid skills and precision mark dishes such as soy-marinated chicken with silky flesh and a hint of Chinese rose wine aromas. Hand-crafted dim sum are the main event – the flaky, airy puff pastry is particularly well done. Try the whole abalone or char siu pork pastry for a full-flavoured bite.
