Ling Long

Ling Long blends local ingredients with western techniques to deconstruct and reinterpret traditional Chinese dishes. This pioneering restaurant pushes the boundaries of both presentation and flavour, cleverly incorporating regional culture into its innovative creations. In a journey that leads diners through a whimsical exploration of Chinese flavours, a playful highlight is the pairing of dinner rolls with jasmine-flavoured milk candy, inspired by Inner Mongolian cuisine; it’s the sort of nostalgic twist that exemplifies Ling Long’s ingenuity. The ever-evolving eight-course set menu focuses on the concept of xian, the Chinese equivalent of umami, which also means “fresh” in Chinese.
