Celestial Court has been a stalwart of Cantonese cuisine for more than 30 years, attracting loyal groups of families, friends, business and leisure travellers who are there for the superb food, rather than the decor. The extensive menu is as you would expect, ranging from dim sum to double-boiled soups, and roasted meats to live seafood and stir fries. A sommelier is on hand to create pairings or suggest a bottle from the excellent wine list.

Signature Dishes

• Baked stuffed chicken with black truffle, pearl barley and duck liver
• Steamed shrimp dumpling with bamboo shoot
• Fried rice with crab, crab roe, conpoy, diced duck, mushrooms and egg white

Tatler Tip

The signature stuffed whole suckling pig must be ordered two days ahead, and the pork belly smoked with pu-erh tea leaves must be ordered five days ahead.
