"Unfortunately we live in Los Angeles or we would live at A Wong. We build our trips to London around eating the incredible dishes. I enjoy most Chinese food but this is way beyond any other Chinese food that we have had. Andrews gets two Michlin stars. He deserves three! I would give him five stars on a grade up to three stars. The rooms are delightful and tables are not squeezed together. The service is first class. Every person knows and carries out their job. They explain the different dishes. Nathalie, Andrew’s wife greets everyone and treats them like family. Roger Gibbons the general manager does the same thing. The staff, Ben helped us by taking pictures of us. Tashi remembered us from prior visits. Vaibhav and Jouves were our main servers. They were really great. Shelly also remembered us from prior visits. She was terrific. Michael the sommelier is so knowledgeable about Wine and helped select the best options. He is wonderful! Andrew Wong himself is extremely talented. He brings together food combinations from many parts of China. He is certainly not aloof. He is humble. What a treat for being a chef of his caliber. The first of the three days was dim sum lunch. Let first say that the food is indescribable in that there are so many incredible flavors blended together. My wife had the crispy spring roll lettuce wrap. She enjoyed it. Then she had the black pepper beef, whispy pastry with tamarind with dried shrimp caramel. Loved it! Followed by the forbidden city sweetcorn, wagu beef meat paste and black truffle. Salt and pepper French bean fritters. She loved this so much she could not wait to have it again on Saturday lunch. She finished with Wagu beef and lettuce fried rice and oyster emulsion. I had the pork and prawn dumpling with king crab, smoked tofu and lemon grass broth. It was phenomenal! Then the clear shrimp dumpling with sweet chili sauce and a rice vinegar cloud. So far I am dying and going to food heaven. Next I had the Cantonese kitchen barbecue pork crackling with prawn, plum and truffle. How does Andrew dream up such amazing food combinations? Let alone then produce them. Next abalone flaky tart with aged balsamic vinegar. Fabulous! 999 layered scallop puff with xo sauce. Yes another winner. Crab claw with tomato and wasabi. I loved it! Next was my absolute favorite. Garlic steamed wild tiger prawn, mung bean noodles and superior soy. OMG!!!! We had the steamed duck yolk custard bun. Heaven in a bun! Friday evening dinner was prefix and I left my notes at the restaurant. But let me reassure you everything was out of this world. I did post pictures of each dish for Friday. We went down stairs to a special room for dessert. I posted pictures of each dessert. All were special. Saturday we returned for dim sum lunch and selected some of the same dishes from our first lunch. Then we added some new dishes. First new dish wasIsle of Mull seared scallop and honey glazed Iberico pork cheung fun. Followed by bamboo pole noodles with king crab and spring onion-oil. These two dishes were fabulous. As you can tell I love everything about eating here. I encourage everyone to come here. Just leave me room for when my wife and I come to London. Thank you A Wong. I hope that I did not leave anyone out because everyone is terrific."

"After having some quite dismal experiences around Chinatown, we decided to have a brunch in a more posh area with well reputed Dim Sum. It was pure bliss for a foodie. I have tried Dim Sum many Places outside Hong Kong but this was the closest I have come so far. When we arrived, there was a waiting queue not unexpected on a sunday, but getting a raffle ticket , and told the wait was approx. 20 mins quite agreeable they have a Picture menu , and it looked VERY promising so checking out the Hood for a little while in Londons first snow of the year, was only whetting the appetite. When we came back, it was not a long wait until we were led to a table, seated, and presented with menues When it comes to Dim Sum, I always feel like one of everything please but wisely we settled for doing 2 rounds favourites first, then a exploratory second round just to fill up any suspected crannies in the tummy. We started off with Prawn Chive Duplings deliciously fresh steamed, and crunchy prawns perfectly cooked then Prawn Dumplings also perfect crunch off to Minced Pork Dumpling with Shrimp a staple any Dim Sum cannot do without Honey Roast Pork Puffs, warm crunchy pastry with a tangy filling, then my all time favourite Cheung Fun with Prawns, a dumply chewy roll with a dark soy sauce do dip in and some Pan Fried Gyozas all enjoyed with steaming Jasmine Tea a feast fit for an Chinese Emperor. The tummy was feeling the effort here, but stil too many tempting items on the menu round two was considered and given a go ahead. Scallop Dumplings a tender taste spiced nearly to perfection, a second og at the Cheung Fun this time Honey Roast Pork, some Sesame Prawn Rolls, which was the suprise of the day crunchy, sesame nutty and super crunchy prawns it formerly exploded of taste in the mouth I lack words to describe it. Rounded of with Glutinous Rice in Lotus Leaf, steamed and tasty. We split a Mango Pudding in the end I dont think either of us would have been able to finish one off alone. Tasty, and definitely something I will try to play around with in the home Kitchen as well. It was`nt cheap but then again if you value whats on your plate by quality and tasty experience I would say this was a good buy! Next time in London, I`ll definitely be back!"
