THE chairman, Chinese restaurant in Central and Western District, Hong Kong
THE Chairman is a Chinese restaurant in Central and Western District serving refined Cantonese cuisine in a modern interior framed by red and gold Chinese characters on its exterior. The space combines contemporary design with traditional visual elements that reflect the kitchen's approach to food.
The restaurant opened in 2009 and quickly became a leader in Cantonese cuisine in Hong Kong. In 2021, it became the first Hong Kong restaurant to reach the top position on Asia's 50 Best Restaurants list.
The restaurant honors traditional Cantonese cooking methods and sources seasonal ingredients from local organic farms and regional suppliers across the area.
Reservations are necessary and should be made at least two weeks in advance for lunch and one month ahead for dinner or weekend visits. Early planning helps secure a table, as demand remains consistently high.
The signature dish combines steamed flower crab with aged Shaoxing wine, chicken oil, and fresh local ingredients from southern China. This combination showcases the careful selection of components that are central to the restaurant's cooking.
