I Heart Hong Kong: This cheekily named restaurant is another one of ZS Hospitality’s brand new ventures on Lyndhurst Terrace — a string of projects formerly associated with chef Harlan Goldstein. This eatery serves Hong Kong-style street food and cocktails inspired by the city. Gentrifying local delicacies? It’s about time someone did it to Hong Kong food…
Look & Feel: Taking up two floors at 8 Lyndhurst Terrace, the restaurant comes complete with old-school Hong Kong-style decor.
On the Menu: Expect to find Hong Kong classics with a contemporary flair, as well as cocktails paying homage to the city. Signatures include spicy shelter crab ($108) and other crowd favorites like baked chicken in sea salt ($268) and steamed cheung fun, which comes with foie gras and black truffle ($138).
Great For: After-work drinks, people-watching (it’s located on the ground floor).
FYI: Lee Lo Mei not quite your bag? Its sister joints in the same building are Italian concept Ee La De, Thai resto My Tai Tai and Latin-American joint Mamasita’s Cantina.
