GOLDEN GIP can now call Central a permanent home after relocating from a temporary pop-up in Siu Sai Wan last year.
The restaurant, founded by chef Shun Sato and led by chef Nigel Kim, brings a collection of dishes found in the Asian region to the table, interpreting recipes with a Korean focus on flavour and ingredients – think spicy, funky, fermented, and bold.
The menu is expansive, featuring raw, savoury, wok, fried, mains, grains, and dessert sections, embodying a dai pai dong spirit in both its powerful flavours and casual dining aspect.
For snacks and smaller plates, the drool chicken (HKD138), not your normal burrata (HKD128), and typhoon shelter corn (HKD118) offer a melange of strong Asian flavours.
Big plates like grilled pork neck (HKD188), Korean fried chicken (HKD128/HKD198), and fxxcking peace out mapo tofu (HKD278) are good for sharing.
