Michelin-starred international cuisine✨

Wan Chai "Cafe Bau" 🇭🇰 | Michelin-starred International Cuisine✨ 🌟Must-Try Chicken🌟 💰$1,000 - $1,500💰 Tasting Menu 8 Courses $1288 🦀Blue Crab Jelly Blue crab takes center stage, delicate blue crab meat embedded in a pale golden jelly. Served with homemade yogurt and heirloom tomato jelly. The oceanic sweetness of the blue crab meets the natural sweet and sour flavor of the tomato🍅. Clearly layered, vibrant colors, and a refreshing and elegant feel. 🦐Jinga Shrimp Mille Feuille Combining French mille-feuille with Southeast Asian flavors, the dish features layers of crispy fried shrimp cakes and slow-cooked prawns. The prawn tartar has a slightly minerally, salty flavor🌊. The texture combines the chewy texture of raw shrimp with the smooth texture of cooked shrimp. Paired with classic Indonesian peanut sauce, it creates a multi-layered contrast. 🌫️Tofu Soy milk-based custard with a rich soy aroma 🫘 Thick texture, smooth texture, and melt-in-your-mouth flavor Local Hong Kong minced pork with a succulent and sweet texture The aroma of Sichuan peppercorns and fermented black bean paste creates a distinct layer of spiciness Added to this is the rich, fatty foie gras 🪿 The pan-fried, crispy exterior contrasts with the mousse-like texture of the interior. The spicy and savory flavor contrasts with the smooth texture of the soy milk 🌶️ 🫚Pat Chun Pork Knuckles ❣️ A refreshing twist on traditional pork knuckle and ginger. The knuckle is deboned, slow-cooked, and shredded to form a patty 🫓 The exterior is pan-fried until slightly crispy, while the meat is soft and juicy. Using local first-cooked eggs, the pork is confited with eight-treasure sweet vinegar at a low temperature. The texture is as smooth as runny pork, complemented by a sweet vinegar foam. The light sweet vinegar foam balances the greasiness 💭 A fusion of sweet and salty flavors Intricately pickled candied ginger is sliced ​​and crisped, adding a sweet and sour crunch to the dish. 🥰🥰 🐟Daily Fresh Fish Using fresh local horsehead fish, seared over high heat. 🔥 The skin is evenly golden, crispy on the outside, and amber-colored edges. The instant you bite into it, you'll experience a crisp, nutty aroma. 🌰 The fish is tender yet springy, with the characteristic sweetness of deep-sea fish. White kidney bean puree adds a rich texture. A drizzle of bouillabaisse creates a rich seafood flavor. 🌊🌊 🍧Red Date Sheba A rich red date aroma with just the right amount of sweetness. The natural molasses flavor of the red dates is fully displayed, yet not cloying. A subtle dried longan aroma emerges in the middle, and a hint of herbal angelica lingering on the finish. ☘️ 🐣Hung Wan Farm Ping Yuen Chicken Morel +$450 2/pp❣️❣️ Using local Fanling Fortune Farm Plain Chicken🐥 Marinated in a broth made with over a dozen ingredients, steamed, and then air-dried. Baked to a golden brown, the skin roasted until crispy and golden. The aroma of fat bursts with every bite💥 The meat is tender and smooth, with crispy skin and tender bones, and the fat is rich. ✨ Added with morels and black-skinned capsicum mushrooms, their unique nutty aroma blends beautifully with the chicken fat. The Lantau Island 2-au-loin chicken absorbs the essence and mushroom aroma of roast chicken. The texture is smokier, rich yet not greasy🥰🥰🥰 Perfectly showcases the triple charm of crispy skin, tender meat, and a rich sauce flavor. ☕️Coffee Tart With a coffee tart base, the crispy tart is tinged with the bitter aroma of coffee. The coconut ice cream is smooth and refreshing with a refreshing coconut flavor without being overpowering. Topped with a rich coffee sauce and amber caramel, the aroma of dark roasted coffee is a delight. A delightful blend of sweetness and coconut 👍🏻👍🏻 🌱Pineapple Smooth mascarpone mousse with a cloud-like, fluffy texture. Rich, creamy yet not overpowering 🥛 Paired with refreshing pineapple sorbet❄️ Garnished with lime zest and fresh basil leaves, the overall palette is bright and refreshing. 🍎Apple Mille Feuille A dessert that blends Hong Kong nostalgia with Italian craftsmanship. Kowloon Wei Kee Milk Gelato🍦 And the warm, crispy texture of freshly baked mille-feuille. A thrilling alternation of hot and cold 🔥🔥 Cinnamon applesauce retains a slightly crunchy texture ⚡️ ✨Highlights Bred by Michelin-starred chef Alvin Leung and Executive Chef Kasey Chan, they strive to create unique cuisine using local Hong Kong ingredients 🍴 Taste 👅: 4.48/5❤️ Ambience 🏠: 4.17/5 ❤️ Service 🗣️: 4.15/5 ❤️❤️ Return Rate: 4.39/5 ❤️❤️ ⏰ Mon - Sun 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM | 6:00 PM - 10:00 PM 📍 Shop 8, Podium 1/F, J Residence, 60 Johnston Rd, Wan Chai #HongKongCheckIn #HongKongFood #HongKongDelights #WanChai #WanChaiFood
