This post was brought to you by HSBC.

Most people define a city’s rich culture and heritage by its history, architecture and language. However, to us, the true way of getting to know a place is through food. As the saying goes, food is the way to the heart, and there is no better way to fall in love with a city than by indulging in their rich culinary scene.

We had the opportunity to attend the Stellar Dining Series by The Ritz Carlton 2019 in Guangzhou, the final pitstop of the entire event. This is its second year running and the whole series spanned across 2 months and 3 countries — Tokyo, Kyoto & Guangzhou — three of Asia-Pacific’s most renowned gourmet destinations.

This multi-sensory adventure saw exciting collaborations between Michelin star chefs, star mixologists, sommeliers and pâtissiers from 7 Ritz Carlton hotels in Europe and Asia from places such as Tokyo, Hong Kong, Macau and Guangzhou. Together, while holding nine Michelin Stars between them, they whipped up a series of lavish, gastronomic feasts that left us gobsmacked and hankering for more.

Aside from the luxurious spread, we also got a chance to learn more about gorgeous Guangzhou through its cuisine. Despite the trip only being 3 days long, we managed to get a substantial taste of the history of this beautiful province by tryng their unique local dishes.

Our home for 3 days was, of course, the palatial The Ritz Carlton, Guangzhou. Exuding elegance and opulence, the hotel is a harmonious combination of Eastern and Western traditions. No detail was left out in its lux appearance, which was complemented by a lineup of impeccable staff who greet their guests with a homely sincerity.

The higher levels of the hotel provide guests with a breathtaking view of the city, including iconic landmarks like the Pearl River and the famous Canton Tower. The convenient location in the bustling city centre also makes it easy to check out attractions such as the Tianhe District, Guangzhou Opera House, Guangzhou Museum and Guangzhou Library.

THE CHURCHILL BAR
Decked in wood-panelled walls and fixings, plush leather seats and an impressive selection of drinks on display, this stately bar ups your drinking experience by tenfold.

Home to the largest collection of single malt whiskeys in Guangzhou as well as wines, premium beers and fine cognacs, this is an alcohol aficionado’s idea of paradise.

This was also where we got to take part in the Handcrafted Japanese-style Cocktail Masterclass by the bubbly Kentaro Wada, Chief Mixologist of The Ritz Carlton, Tokyo and the 2018 Japan Chivas Masters Global Champion.

We got the chance to watch him work his magic up close as he presented to us his signature Japanese-style cocktails. He also patiently guided us in making our own cocktails while providing us with little tidbits of tricks to help us make a cocktail like a pro.

LAI HEEN

For our first dinner at The Ritz Carlton, Guangzhou, we were honoured to enjoy a six-course dinner prepared by 3 Michelin-starred chefs from 3 different parts of the world— Chef Paul Lau from Hong Kong, Chef Jackie Ho from Macau and Chef Gordon Guo from Guangzhou. This was the first time that these 3 legends were cooking in the very same kitchen and they whipped up an ambrosial, unforgettable Cantonese-style feast.

While it is hard to choose a favourite, the dish that left a lasting impression on all the guests was the Glutinous Rice, Crab Tempura and Tomato, prepared by Chef Paul Lau. Paired with a glass of 2011 Kuai Ji Shan, this Chinese-style risotto featured sticky glutinous rice cooked to perfection in a tangy tomato concoction that was topped with an outrageously crispy crab tempura.

We ended the gastronomical meal on a sweet note with a masterpiece of a dessert by Chef Gordon Guo. Here, a wolfberry infused guava pudding was paired with cheese sauce and a glass of Cháteau Rieussec. A simple yet ingenious combination that pulled all the varying components of the meal together in a harmonious ending.

NANSHA ISLAND FISH MARKET & PEARL RIVER 

On our second day, we went on a little excursion to the Lingan area accompanied by well-known local gastronome, Mr Philip Ho as well as Chef Gordon Guo.

Here, we got to visit Nansha Island Fish Market, a local seafood market at Nansha Shijiuchong in the southern tip of Guangzhou.

We also got the opportunity to take a boat out to sea to explore the Pearl River estuary as well as try our hand at catching some fish. To end off the refreshing experience, Chef Guo and Mr Phillip Ho used the fresh seafood that we had bought at Nansha Island Fish Market to cook us a gargantuan, steaming pot of traditional Cantonese seafood congee.

This wholesome, soothing dish had a creamy texture that was further enhanced by an unconventional ingredient — peanut butter. This paired surprisingly well with the sweetness of the various seafood in the mix such as prawns, crab and fish. If we could have this dish for breakfast every day, we undoubtedly would.

SHUNDE 

For lunch, we dined at the renowned ShunDe, a restaurant that specialises in Cantonese-style food that may come off as slightly bizarre to a foreigner. Here, we sampled interesting, unconventional dishes such as Snake Soup, Stir-fried Soft Shell Turtle and Fried Catfish.

Despite initially being rather intimidating, the Snake Soup, ShunDe’s star dish, was surprisingly palatable. Sweet, fragrant and milky, the soup tasted a little like chicken soup and had a lovely, refreshing finish.

The inclusion of snakeskin and meat in the soup may come off as slightly unnerving for some people but after getting past the chewy texture, we feel that it definitely added a nice touch to the dish.

LIMONI 

To end off the trip on a high, we had our final meal at the ritzy Michelin Plate Restaurant, LIMONI, which name translates from Italian to lemons in English. We were served a stellar six-course dinner that was done up by Executive Sous-Chef Mr Hubert Ly and Italian Chef Davide Allievi.

If we had to pick a favourite, it would be the Sous-Vide Pigeon Breast, Leg Confit, Celeriac, which paired beautifully with a glass of Vintage 2016 Ruffino Aziano.

Pigeon meat, in general, has an intense, gamey taste that can be quite overwhelming. However, the chefs at LIMONI managed to cook the bird in such a way that the gaminess of the pigeon did not overpower the other components of the dish.

We also thoroughly enjoyed the Line Caught French Sea Bass, Forked Potato, Oscietra Caviar, Prosecco Emulsion. Buttery and light, the French sea bass melts away in your mouth upon the first bite. This is further enhanced by the creamy forked potato and rich caviar.

The time of the year has come again for family and friends to gather for reunion dinners. Most of us will be busy going around house visiting and catching up with relatives, and it comes naturally that many Chinese restaurants will shut their doors on these days as we spend our time celebrating this holiday.

Many spirits were shaken at the news of its closure some months ago but finally, after an extensive four-month facelift, Hua Ting Restaurant returns with a sophisticated new look and an improved menu to match.

At the helm of this grande dame is Masterchef Chung Lap Fai, and along with his team of veteran Chinese chefs, a brand new menu is introduced—one that aims to impart traditional flavours in a contemporary fashion. Look forward to a myriad of intriguing new dishes and creative tea-and-food pairing menus alongside the restaurant’s signatures and crowd-pleasers, all plated and presented in a sleek, artistic fashion.

New to Hua Ting Restaurant’s menu is their Smoked Peking Duck infused with Aged Pu-Erh served with Yuzu Sauce. Aromatic, succulent and everything you could ever want in a Peking duck dish (and more), it is one of those dishes that you’ll find yourself hankering over for days.

We are definitely loving Hua Ting Restaurant even more than we already did!

To match the restaurant’s modern furnishing and finer decorative outfits, the menu has been totally revamped but rest assured that the old favourites are still very much in place.

Having spent the restaurant’s downtime revising the menu, Masterchef Lap Fai might have elevated the look and presentation of his dishes, but at its heart, the menu still stays true to its traditional Cantonese roots.

DONG XING GAROUPA AND CRISPY RICE

Nothing defines ’comfort’ like rice in hot soup and Hua Ting Restaurant’s version will blow your mind with its wild-caught Dong Xing Garoupa and Crispy Rice in Superior Stock.

Inspired by Korean bibimbap, the dish is first presented in a piping-hot stone bowl displaying only rice with a layer of raw fish slices, to which the server pours over the hot stock that instantly cooks the fish.

At the side, you can help yourself to freshly diced scallions, fried fish bones as well as crispy puffed rice to give the indulgent rice porridge an extra punch of flavour.

Hands down, this was easily our favourite dish of all. The dish was comforting with a mixture of sweet, delicate flavours and the different textures present in the dish itself made it all the more delightful to eat.

CHILLED MARINATED 16-HEAD SOUTH AFRICAN ABALONE

True luxury knows no equal as far as the Chilled Marinated 16-head South African Abalone is concerned. A true delight to look at (let alone eat), this ocean gem is marinated with sake over a long period to give it a more intense flavour boost.

Served cold, we really enjoyed the harmony of textures and sensations that were present in our mouth upon each bite.

SMOKED PEKING DUCK INFUSED WITH AGED PU-ERH

New to Hua Ting Restaurant’s menu is the ambrosial Smoked Peking Duck infused with Aged Pu-Erh served with Yuzu Sauce. What else can we say? We are suckers when it comes to Peking duck—from its irresistibly crispy skin and succulent flesh right down to the decadent hoisin sauce that just ties in all the flavours.

This aromatic rendition is taken a notch higher than your average Peking duck with the strong infusion of fragrant pu-erh tea leaves that, aside from perfuming the meat as it cooks, add another layer of flavour that might intrigue the palate at first, but no doubt tastes brilliant.

HUA TING RESTAURANT SIGNATURE ROAST TRIO PLATTER

Boasting a similar profile to the Smoked Peking Duck, Hua Ting Restaurant’s Signature Roast Trio Platter—that features crispy roasted duck, crispy roasted pork and charcoal-grilled Spanish Iberico pork char siew—is true indulgence at its finest.

Neither gamy nor tough, every bite of the roasted duck promises an aromatic punch that is further accented by the decadent fat that oozes out from the meat. And as far as roasted pork dishes go, we dare admit that very few can beat their stellar char siew and roasted pork.

BAKED EMPRESS CHICKEN DRUMSTICK IN HAND-MOULDED BREAD

With a distinguished career that spanned more than three decades, Master Chef Lap Fai is more than just a chef; he is an artist in his own right. And the restaurant’s Baked Empress Chicken Drumstick, Abalone, Fungus and Chinese Herbs is a testament to that.

This dish is as much as a culinary masterpiece as it is a melting pot of unbelievable flavours. Encased in a hen-shaped bread bowl, of which Chef Lap Fai moulds himself daily, hides a fork-tender chicken drumstick as well as mushrooms and other edible goodies—all stewed down to tender perfection.

DIM SUM DELIGHTS

A signature on their dim sum menu and a true representative of the restaurant is Hua Ting Restaurant’s Signature Baked Mango Chicken Tartlet. Encased in a crispy, buttery bo lo bun hides bits of sweet, minced chicken and diced up ripe mangoes. While many might flinch at the thought of this unlikely pairing, we promise you that it is good.

Another item to look forward to is the Wok-fried Turnip Cake with House-made X.O. Sauce in Hot Stone Bowl. Brimming with delicious savoury, slightly spicy qualities and exuding a strong wok-hei flavour, this dish is a great accompaniment to have alongside the sweeter dim sum options.

STEAMED FRESH CRAB CLAW, EGG WHITE, SPRING ONION AND GINGER PURÉE

For something that looks presumably simple, we were rather impressed by the complexity of flavours present in the Steamed Fresh Crab Claw, Egg White, Spring Onion and Ginger Purée.

Sitting on a bed of firm and silky egg white, the crab claw was meaty and sweet. But what truly made this dish divine was the combination of the assertive, subtly spicy house-made ginger purée and salty ikura.

CRISPY SQUID TENTACLE, CHILLI PADI, ALMOND FLAKE

The Crispy Squid Tentacle, Chilli Padi, Almond Flake is something that comes highly recommended. A slight derivative of the iconic salted egg yolk crispy squid that we’re used to, this rendition features flakes of almond that add a nice crunch and nutty note to the dish.

Battered and fried till golden and crispy, the battered squid takes on the flavours of its accompaniments pretty well without being overly greasy.

BRAND NEW TEA PAIRING

A new addition to Hua Ting Restaurant is their specially curated tea-pairing menu that is crafted by Masterchef Lap Fai himself. Like wine, he believes that tea has the ability to provide a new dimension to a meal, either by complementing certain dishes or enhancing them.

For S$98++ per pax, savour a whole array of fine dishes matched with premium brews, such as Fried Rice with Conpoy and Organic Black Garlic in Lotus Leaf, infused with Jasmine Pearls tea—a pairing which he believes is the most suitable in bringing out the subtleties—and more!

The entire experience will heighten your love for tea and it is the best way to truly appreciate fine tea and food.
