A Wong

Top choice in Kensington & Hyde Park

LoginSave

With its relaxed, appealing vibe and busy open kitchen, Michelin-starred A Wong excels at lunchtime dim sum but also casts its net wide to haul in some very tasty sensations from across China: Shanghai xiaolongbao dumplings, Shaanxi roujiamo (pulled-lamb burger in a bun), Chengdu doufuhua (Chengdu 'street toufu'), spicy Sichuan aubergines, Peking duck and more, deliciously reinterpreted.

The dinner-only 14-course 'Taste of China' menu (£100) takes you on a culinary journey across the Middle Kingdom.
