From fine dining to street food, one of the best things about living in Hong Kong has to be that we are spoilt for choice when it comes to Michelin star restaurants. The 13th and latest version of the guide, the Michelin Guide Hong Kong Macau 2021, lists 69 restaurants in Hong Kong and 18 in Macau which have been given the prestigious stars. In all, 277 eateries across the two locations were recognised in some way.
Three-star Restaurants
There was no change in the three-star list, with seven Hong Kong and three Macau restaurants maintaining their stars for another year. HK’s three-star venues, which are deemed ‘exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey’, are as follows:
- Caprice
- L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon
- Lung King Heen
- 8½ Otto e Mezzo – Bombana
- T’ang Court
- Forum
- Sushi Shikon
The trio of three-starred restaurants in Macau consists of Jade Dragon, Robuchon au Dôme and The Eight.
Two- and One-star Restaurants
This year’s guide has 18 two-star eateries, with 12 of those in Hong Kong. New entrants on list, up from one star last year, are L’Envol and Tate Dining Room.
There are now 59 one-star ‘quality cooking, worth a stop’ restaurants, with 50 of them in Hong Kong. There are seven new one-star HK entrants in this year’s guide:
- Andō
- Man Ho
- The Araki
- The Chairman
- Yardbird
- Yè Shanghai (Tsim Sha Tsui)
