Alan Wong’s Shanghai
Interpretive Shanghai bites with Hawaiian notes
From legend of Hawaiian regional cuisine, Alan Wong, this eponymous Shanghai outpost promises an authentic menu, rich with exotic ingredients and net-fresh seafood dishes that Wong has helped pioneer with the Hawaii Regional Cuisine group for some 20 years now. Within the Portman Ritz-Carlton complex, Wong’s beach hut ambience compliments traditional dishes such as Poke, an appetiser salad of bitesized raw fish, here playfully paired with Asian flavours – Ahi tuna poke with avocado ginger salsa and soy wasabi and the Japanese kampachi poke with samba emission and pumpkin seeds but a couple of examples. Set to the backdrop of a Hawaiian sunset, the raw bar cements the freshness on offer, while cocktail concoctions nodding to the maritime linking of both sides of the Pacific complete the picture.
