LMO Freshly Baked x Little Bao
Mandarin Oriental The Landmark, Hong Kong is continuing its Tastemarker series at LMO Freshly Baked this month with celebrated chef May Chow of the award-winning modern Chinese eatery Little Bao, who brings a range of comforting dishes that are available to take away from the Landmark Atrium location.
LMO Freshly Baked’s time-limited menu includes a Szechuan three yellow chicken sandwich ($88) with punchy vinegar, chilli, ginger, and more aromatics, and a refreshing tomato, plum, and perilla salad with prawns in a sour plum dressing ($98) that is great for the hot weather. But our favourite of Chow’s creations has got to be the Hong Kong-style curry brisket pie ($98), which features slow-cooked beef shin in a nostalgic curry sauce – the kind that you get from cha chaan tengs, with a flavour profile that sits in between Indian and Japanese curries – encased in a buttery, flaky pastry.
