Reputed chef Yeung Koon-yat's tender and flavorsome abalone served at the Forum draws global gourmands to Hong Kong. Sushi Shikon at the Landmark Mandarin Oriental, continues to deliver first-rate food. Previous Next

The Michelin Guide Hong Kong and Macau honored two fine dining restaurants in Hong Kong with three stars – Forum in Sino Plaza, Causeway Bay, and Sushi Shikon at Landmark Mandarin Oriental.

Forum, whose signature dish, the Ah Yat braised abalone, has become as famous as Forum’s owner-chef Yeung Koon-yat after whom it is named, the guide says. The tender and flavorsome abalone is braised for days and its widespread repute draws global gourmands to Hong Kong just for a taste of it.

Indeed, its international fame is such that some even travel from abroad just to taste it - tender and flavorsome abalone slow-cooked in a gourmet broth for days. Try also the braised oxtail, crispy fried chicken and stuffed crab shell with dried scallops, the guide says.

Sushi Shikon, continues to deliver first-rate food made with the finest skills after the sushi-ya’s relocation from Sheung Wan to a prestigious new space in the Landmark Mandarin Oriental in 2019. The intimate new space features detailed designs by Japan’s top designers and artisans, including the karatsu dinnerware handmade according to tradition, the guide says.

The tiger prawn, the tender octopus and the egg custard with blue crab are just some of the stand-outs, the guide says.

With these two restaurants, Hong Kong now has seven restaurants recognised with the highest accolade of three stars, including Caprice, L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon, Lung Kin Heen, 8½ Otto e Mezzo – Bombana and T'and Court.

In Macau, all three, three-starred restaurants, Jade Dragon Robuchon au Dome and The Eight have retained their ratings from last year, the guide says.
