Amazing dinner at Wai King Kok @waldorfastoriashanghai @waldorfastoria 🔥🇨🇳

Had to check out the Chinese restaurant at Waldorf Astoria whilst in Shanghai. Was lucky enough to get in the kitchen and see how their chefs prepare so many delicious traditional dishes. The barbecued roast meat and duck was phenomenal. Just look at the colour, glisten and char on the char siu - it was unreal - ultra soft and so juicy. The glaze was sweet and subtly spiced but the texture was unlike any I’ve had before. Proper char siu. Second favourite dish was their signature crispy chicken in the 4th photo. Looks like duck, but no, the most insane chicken. Shatteringly crisp skin and the juiciest meat - literally dripping as you lift up each piece. The chicken is brined for a few days before being cooked and the result is just wild - first time trying chicken like this. On the side, their Wagyu beef fried rice was the obvious order - perfectly seasoned and flavoured with enough wok hei to give you that smokey bite in each spoonful. Rich and flavoursome. Amazing food here #notoriousfoodie 🙅🏽‍♂️
