Set menus by email
The Chairman is a Cantonese restaurant on the third floor of The Wellington, 198 Wellington Street, in Central, Hong Kong, and holds one Michelin star in the MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong Macau 2026.
It runs differently from most: bookings open online on certain days only, and diners choose one of the set menus emailed to them in advance. The kitchen insists on the freshest ingredients, mostly organic, from local farms and fishermen, and the must-try dish is steamed crab with Huadiao wine and chicken fat on Chen Cun rice noodles.
