Set within Regent Hong Kong, Lai Ching Heen stands as a beacon of Cantonese culinary excellence.

The menu reflects the rich cultural tapestry of Chinese culinary traditions and the evolution of Cantonese cuisine over the past 40 years. 'Maintaining the authenticity of Cantonese cuisine in today's world is like practising martial arts – it demands discipline, diligence and relentless practice,' says Lau. Each dish tells a story, he says, adding that 'every dish, every ingredient, every technique reflects the true essence of Cantonese culinary tradition'. Refined and deeply rooted in Guangdong's and Hong Kong's heritage, the menu features dishes such as golden stuffed crabmeat, where the natural sweetness of crab is enhanced by sautéed onions and a delicate touch of fresh milk, all enveloped in a perfectly crispy shell. This is just one dish that exemplifies the chefs' attention to detail and culinary skill. 'Proper wok hei [breath of the wok] and precise knife skills – are not just skills, but the very essence of Cantonese cooking,' Cheng explains. 'By building a strong foundation in these core skills, we can then apply them to both traditional and contemporary dishes, ensuring a genuine connection to the culinary roots.' The signature golden stuffed crabmeat dish exemplifies the chefs' attention to detail and commitment to flavour. Wok-fried Kagoshima Wagyu beef is another highlight – its marbled tenderness is complemented by a fragrant blend of black peppercorns and seasonal mushrooms – showcasing the artistry that defines Lai Ching Heen's approach to cooking by using the best seasonal ingredients.
