Tucked away in Wan Chai, “Xin Rong Ji” is a Michelin-starred gem known for elevating Zhejiang cuisine🥢 The original location hails from Taizhou, and the group now boasts over 20 branches across China and beyond, including this elegant Hong Kong outpost🇨🇳 We came specifically for their iconic Peking Duck - pre-ordering is a must, as it takes about an hour to prepare⏳

The whole duck is presented table-side, then expertly carved in stages: first, the glistening crispy skin is served on its own to savour its delicate crunch🔪 Next, the succulent meat is sliced and paired with pancakes, hoisin, cucumber, and spring onion🤤 Finally, the leftover bones are wok-fried with salt and pepper - a deliciously satisfying finish to a three-part duck experience💯

香港・湾仔にある「新荣记（シン・ロン・ジー）」は、中国の浙江（せっこう）料理を提供するミシュラン名店🌟 本店は中国・台州にあり、現在では中国本土や海外に20店舗以上展開しています🌏 名物の「北京ダック」は注文から提供までに1時間ほどかかるため、事前予約がおすすめです🕐 丸ごと焼き上げた鴨はテーブルまで運ばれ、まずはパリパリの皮が丁寧に切り分けられます❤️‍🔥 続いてジューシーな肉は甜麺醤、胡瓜、白ネギ、薄餅と共に味わいます🥒 残った骨の部分は揚げられ、塩胡椒でパンチの効かせ、最後まで余すところなく味わえる三段構成でした🫶

Hidden above @opusbistro in Bangsar, “Plump” is a charming cake haven in Kuala Lumpur, founded by ex-banker-turned-baker @taobakescakes🏦 I had two unforgettable slices: the “Pistachio, Lemon & Rose Cake” with strawberries and yogurt (light, floral, delicately tangy), and the “Hazelnut Burnt Butter Cake” with salted chocolate, berries, and praline pecans (rich, nutty, perfectly balanced)✨ Whether you’re a KL local or just passing through, this speakeasy-style café is worth the hunt - keep an eye out for the unassuming sign💓

マレーシア・クアラルンプールの「バンサー」住宅街にひっそり佇む、看板がない隠れ家ケーキ屋「Plump（プランプ）」🤫 種類が豊富で注文に悩みましたが、苺とヨーグルトを合わせた定番メニューの「Pistachio, Lemon & Rose Cake（ピスタチオ・レモン・ローズのケーキ）」とオーナーのイチオシ、塩チョコ、ベリー、ピーカンを添えた「Hazelnut Burnt Butter Cake（ヘーゼルナッツ・焦がしバターケーキ」を頂きました🌹入り口は見つけにくいので、イタリアンビストロ「Opus（オーパス）」の横にあるヒントを探してみてください㊙️

What’s Tuesday like at a Mexican restaurant without a taco Tuesday special?

At @elpavorealnola it’s just low-key family-style vibes with distinctive Mexican food that has me coming back any day of the week.

This was last Tuesday at the restaurant, and plenty of people were having the regular menu tacos. We went a different direction with the seafood cocktail, coconut shrimp that gives me a subtle Mexican-Indian flex, black bean soup (pretty and still just five dollars), and the crab meat and avocado quesadillas with a crispy outer shell of cheese.

Look for blackboard specials like these mushroom molotes (first photo), crisp masa empanada shapes with a creamy filling.

And I really like the tequila and beet cocktail.

Popcorn to start, of course.

It’s one idea from this week’s column on restaurants you should check out aronnd town, both new and not-so-new.

@joomak_newyork continues to prove why it’s one of the most compelling new restaurants of 2025.

The team has just launched a $150 five-course bar tasting menu—distinct from the regular dinner experience, but crafted with the same level of precision, creativity, and technical finesse. The menu evolves with the seasons and ingredients, offering a thoughtful glimpse into the heart of Joomak’s culinary identity.

In even more welcome news, Joomak has lowered the price of its full tasting menu from $285 to $230—an exceptional value considering the pedigree of the kitchen, with talent from The Modern, Per Se, and Le Bernardin behind the scenes.

They’re also gearing up for a special Mother’s Day brunch and will be kicking off a dessert collaboration series with Chef Jiho and some of NYC’s top talent in pastry.

Follow @joomak_newyork for updates, and swipe through to see what’s currently on the delicious bar tasting menu!
