Fodor's Expert Review The Eight

Designed by Hong Kong's Alan Chan, The Eight is an opulent-looking restaurant where the food is as impressive as the decor—it was awarded three Michelin stars in 2014. The chefs here prepare fine Cantonese and Huaiyang cuisine; signature dishes include braised abalone with Chinese herbs, steamed Japanese bean curd with dried seafood, and steamed fish-shaped shrimp dumplings. The wine cellar contains more than 14,100 different labels; teetotalers can enjoy teas from an extensive menu that includes a pu er that has been aged for 49 years.

Lunchtime diners can choose from a menu that boasts over 50 types of dim sum.
