As Close As It Gets
I have always said that Chinese cuisine is not fairly represented anywhere outside of China. This restaurant, however, proves to be an exception. An organic fusion of traditional Chinese style cuisine and modern artistry makes this a refreshingly unique, yet authentic presentation by Chef John Kwan. Delicately balanced and flavoured, every dish is creatively and artfully prepared. Choose from a variety of tasting menus or order à la carte to suit your appetite. It’s difficult to pick favourites on such a thoroughly tasty menu, but Dungeness crab, lobster, scallop with melons, and saffron fried rice with mixed seafood are all a must! Make sure to ask your gracious server what the specials of the day are; as is typical of traditional Chinese restaurants, there will always be chef’s recommendations which will prove to be favourable. Often amongst the specials is a papaya-coconut-rice dessert, a perfect coda to the evening!
