Combining traditional cooking techniques with wholesome ingredients, Miss LEE takes guests on a healthy and nutritious culinary adventure with a menu that will suit vegetarians, vegans and flexitarians alike. Using the freshest local ingredients, the newly opened Miss LEE on Wellington Street in Central offers Hong Kong’s hipsters and health-conscious foodies a fabulous fusion of aromatic Chinese dishes with distinctive pan-European presentation.
Miss LEE was designed by the acclaimed Bespoke Studio and takes its external influence from Wes Anderson’s 2014 movie, The Grand Budapest Hotel. Easily found and conveniently located on the ground floor of the 198 Wellington building, it is within walking distance to Central Ferry Pier and IFC Apple mall.
The menu is large and includes a welcome selection of gluten-free and dairy-free options. Open your account with appetizers such as Smoky Quartz, Flower Bouquet, or the delightful Pearls On Lotus with deep-fried rice crackers on a bed of puffed rice, topped with beetroot with vinegar pearls, and wasabi-laced lotus root with yuzu pearls.
There are plenty of hearty sharing options too. Try Golden Flowers, deep-fried cauliflower florets topped with salted egg yolk sauce sitting on a bed of rich pumpkin purée, or Fire Balls, a vegetarian version of sweet and sour pork, whilst the mushroom and pearl barley risotto, Fungi Farm, is a delicious porcini and chanterelle topped delight enriched by truffles. At lunch, the set meal is a real winner and includes soup, mains like Broccoli and Enoki Mushroom Quinoa and Braised Lotus Root served in fermented bean curd, along with a side of rice or noodles.
