Recently made over, Min Jiang is lovely to look at. There are long corridors sheathed in iron and wood, dramatic silk-wrapped lamps and flattering lighting; french doors open on to poolside tables. Sichuan classics include the famous hot and sour soup, thinly sliced garlic pork, deep-fried prawns coated in oats and chilli, and fragrant seared noodles tossed with venison. If you’re feeling brave, try the bestselling but pungent durian pudding.
