Why we recommend it
The Chairman has become one of the most talked-about Cantonese restaurants in Asia by focusing on ingredients and craft rather than luxury for its own sake. Sauces are made in-house, produce is sourced locally where possible, and classic dishes are cooked with remarkable care.

Signature dishes include steamed flowery crab with aged Shaoxing wine and chicken oil, alongside seasonal Cantonese classics. Tasting menus and à la carte are offered.
Location
The restaurant is in Central, on the slopes above Queen's Road, a short walk from the Mid-Levels escalator.
