Lai Ching Heen, the renowned Cantonese restaurant at Regent Hong Kong, has once again secured two stars in the MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong & Macau 2025, marking its 16th consecutive year of being recognised by the prestigious guide. A symbol of culinary mastery and consistency, this accolade cements the restaurant’s place among the finest Cantonese dining destinations in the world.

An Icon of Cantonese Cuisine

Known for its elegant jade-inspired interiors and sweeping views of Victoria Harbour, Lai Ching Heen blends traditional craftsmanship with modern finesse. Executive Chef Lau Yiu Fai and Head Chef Cheng Man Sang lead the charge, offering a dining experience built on decades of culinary dedication and artistry.

From meticulously prepared seafood and double-boiled soups to refined dim sum and celebratory tasting menus, every dish reflects a deep reverence for Cantonese flavours, ingredients, and seasonal techniques.

The restaurant’s design evokes a jade jewellery box, with rich green tones, refined table settings, and a luxurious yet intimate atmosphere. Guests can choose to dine in the main space or enjoy one of the private harbour-view rooms, ideal for special occasions or business entertaining.

Complementing the cuisine is a carefully curated Chinese tea programme, helmed by Tea Sommelier Kelvin Mok, who guides diners through bespoke tea pairings to enhance the sensory experience.
