Gourmet Tour - Views And Gastronomy Of Cantonese

OVERVIEW

Gaze out over Hong Kong’s sprawling urban landscape from its highest points and celebrate the experience with an exquisite lunch featuring Cantonese cuisine. You will ascend lofty Victoria Peak on a 19th-century tram that is among the world’s steepest funiculars. As spectacular as the views will be along the way, the ones from Sky Terrace 428 may be even more magnificent, as this aptly named wok-shaped building rises 428 meters above sea level. You will enjoy another perspective of the Hong Kong metropolis from atop the Lion’s Point Pavilion, a multi-level lookout on Victoria Peak. During the meal that follows at a Michelin-star restaurant, you will feast on iconic Cantonese cuisine, which typically emphasizes freshness and a delicate balance of flavors. Expect to dine on a variety of shrimp- and pork-filled dim sum classics served in a fragrant broth with egg noodles. One of the dishes will likely be a cheung fun rice roll.
