RESTAURANT REVIEW

It is to the credit of the Abu Dhabi investment group Tasameem that in the midst of rolling out branches of their highly successful Hakkasan, they stopped to take the time to create a top-level fine dining experience. At the heart of the operation is Tong Chee Hwee, who after spending 11 years as the head chef for the entire Hakkasan group, has settled in at HKK and is now offering diners creations like lychee-wood-roasted Peking duck; lobster soup with goji berry and enoki mushroom; and charcoal-grilled lamb in Sha-Cha sauce. One reviewer, while pointing out that in no way should this be confused with fusion cooking, credits the restaurant’s success as the result of “a careful re-thinking of Chinese cuisine combined with a deep understanding of European ingredients,” while another says the cooking is “as good as any you will find in Hong Kong.”
