Hong Kong’s Wing took #3 spot at the recent Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants 2025 and ranked #20 in the World’s Best 50 Restaurants 2024. Wing really soars high, showing off the evolution of Chinese cuisine. Chef owner Vicky Cheng, Hong Kong born, raised in Canada, has worked in esteemed kitchens such as Restaurant Daniel (Boulud), and Canada’s Auberge du Pommier and Canoe. While at his one-star VEA restaurant, upstairs from Wing, French techniques are boss to Chinese ingredients, at Wing, it’s a homecoming to his Chinese roots, using ingredients such as dried seafoods, discovering they’re like fine wines, developing flavours as they age. And those local fruits and blueberries from Hong Kong, were a-maz-ing! More on Cheng in an upcoming column, but check out the food and the photo of Cheng, holding a very large and costly dried fish maw.
