Man Wah at Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong,China (Central)

If you want to enjoy authentic Cantonese food with finesse, ambiance and a scenic view this is the place. Hong Kong is not a good place for vegetarians with meat stocks and powders often finding their way into apparently vegetarian dishes. So it was great to find a true vegetarian tasting menu at Man Wah. The non vegetarian menu is also excellent which combined with excellent cooking and friendly professional service provided a very special dinner.Next time when you visit hong kong, dont forget Man Wah be on your list.
