Chinesology, chef Saito Chau’s swanky restaurant at ifc mall where modern Chinese fine-dining and halal food converge, has recently debuted a new halal tasting menu (HKD1,688 pp) partnering with several local brands – a big win for Hong Kong’s expanding halal dining scene.

The seasonal “TEN Flavours of Hong Kong” menu is a collaboration with esteemed local brands including iconic sauce specialist Lee Kum Kee, Vita of lemon tea fame, 70-year-old dried seafood and traditional Chinese medicine shop Lee Hoong Kee, Nestlé’s Eagle condensed milk, and Tin Hong Chicken, a halal-certified chicken farm in Kam Tin Valley, New Territories.

Dish highlights include the chilled king prawn with seaweed and Lee Kum Kee soy sauce, smoked Tin Hong chicken with rock oolong tea leaf, braised Lee Hoong Kee premium dried abalone with stone grains, and homemade sorbet with Vita lemon tea flavour.
