真正完成這道菜的地方,是在已盛裝食材的碗中。「清蓮貴妃露」這道菜,靈感源自粵菜,先將夏日當造的貴妃蚌鋪於碗底,再即席注入滾燙的自家製雞湯,當中更帶著新鮮搗碎的湖南蓮子。熱力恰到好處地將蚌肉輕柔煮熟,肉質軟嫩,鎖住鮮甜,蓮子更為湯頭添一抹綿密的質感。⁠

佳餚於「灶後故事」嚐味菜單中呈獻,由即日起至9月13日限定供應。菜餚背後的巧思與細膩,歡迎前來感受。⁠

The final seconds of cooking happen in the bowl. For our Guangdong-inspired Royal Concubine Clam Soup, plump summer Concubine Clams are arranged raw before piping-hot chicken broth, enriched with freshly crushed Hunan lotus seeds, is poured directly over them. The heat gently poaches the clam meat just enough to preserve its tenderness and natural juices, while the lotus seeds give the broth a softly textured consistency.⁠

Meet the techniques behind this course through the Behind the Kitchen Doors tasting menu, available until 13 September.

Summer is best measured by what's shared across the table. This season brings together handcrafted dim sum created exclusively for weekday lunch and weekend brunch, signature dishes that have become part of The Chinese Library, and a collection of seasonal à la carte specials.⁠

When evening arrives, the menu opens up even further, inviting friends and family to linger over dishes chosen for passing, sharing and ordering one more of. Reserve your table and join us for dinner while the season lasts.

一席佳餚最美好之處,在於桌上沒人只為自己點菜。點心一籠籠送至,主菜在談笑間上桌,全都互相分享,連甜品也一樣。⁠

「週末無限暢享點心早午餐」最動人的享受,正是大家一起分享,一同歡聚。這個週末,歡迎與家人摯友前來,細味這段愜意時光。⁠

There is something reassuring about a table where nobody orders only for themselves. Dim sum arrives for everyone, mains are passed from one side to the other, and dessert is shared until the last spoonful disappears.⁠

That's how our Unlimited Dim Sum Weekend Brunch was meant to be enjoyed. Gather your family and friends this weekend.

前菜「滷水鮑魚.15年陳皮鵝肝醬」,風味靈感源自潮州。鮑魚以自家製滷汁慢火滷煮,鵝肝則於同一滷汁中慢滷一晚,靜待入味,再融合十五年陳皮粉的醇厚香氣。上桌之時,即席將陳皮鵝肝刨落鮑魚之上,縷縷幽香隨熱氣散發,輕柔地裹住每一片鮑魚。⁠

「灶後故事」嚐味菜單由即日起至9月13日限定供應。每一道佳餚背後,皆蘊藏著精彩故事,也體現了精湛的技藝、地區的傳統,現誠邀您前來細味。⁠

Inspired by the flavours of Chiu Chow, this appetiser begins with chilled abalone slowly braised in our house-made master stock, while foie gras rests overnight in the same broth before being blended with powdered 15-year-aged dried mandarin peel. Shaved over the abalone at your table, it softens with the warmth of each bite, becoming a fragrant sauce that gently coats every slice.⁠

Available as part of our Behind The Kitchen Doors tasting menu from today until 13 September, this is an invitation to experience the stories, techniques and regional traditions that shape each course.

有些風味,就算宴席散去,依然縈繞於賓客心間,就如這道「十年陳釀女兒紅蒸黃花魚」。黃花魚鮮甜清雅,與歲月沉澱的醇厚酒香交織,兩者完美融合,呈現出一份深邃。如此複雜的風味,讓它成為The Chinese Library的招牌餚之一。⁠⁠佳餚於「...

有些風味,就算宴席散去,依然縈繞於賓客心間,就如這道「十年陳釀女兒紅蒸黃花魚」。黃花魚鮮甜清雅,與歲月沉澱的醇厚酒香交織,兩者完美融合,呈現出一份深邃。如此複雜的風味,讓它成為The Chinese Library的招牌餚之一。⁠

佳餚於「百川珍味」嚐味菜單中呈獻,菜單為四至六人而設,特別將餐廳多道招牌序作匯於一席。⁠

There are flavours that guests remember long after the meal has ended. Steamed Yellow Croaker with 10-year-aged Chinese yellow wine has become one of them, pairing the clean sweetness of the fish with the rounded fragrance that only years of careful ageing can bring. Its complexity has made it a defining dish at The Chinese Library.⁠

Find it as part of our Icons of Flavour tasting menu for four to six, where the restaurant's signature creations are brought together in one experience.

Order a few favourites, pass them around, and let each dish unfold at its own pace. Available for dinner for a limited time.

「灶後故事」嚐味菜單這則故事,早在開爐前已經開始。廚師團隊先圍坐一堂,交換想法,回顧各地風土傳統,開始構思如何鋪陳時令風味。然後細選當造的夏日食材,再歷經數週的反覆試味與琢磨,才得以完成。⁠

這張誠意滿滿的菜單,由即日起至9月13日限定供應。誠邀您前來,感受整段創作過程,見證團隊如何從各地汲取靈感,又如何善用各種精湛技法,將意念化為佳餚。⁠

The story of this menu begins well before service. It starts away from the heat of the stoves, where the team gathers to exchange ideas, revisit regional traditions and imagine how the season might be expressed on a plate. From there, the search continues through selecting summer ingredients at their peak before they return to the kitchen for weeks of tasting, refinement and collaboration.⁠

Available until 13 September, Behind The Kitchen Doors invites you to experience the people, places and thoughtful process behind every course.
