Koi Palace

Elegant, bustling restaurant offers vast selection (more than 100 dishes) of impeccably prepared dim sum during lunch hours, from shrimp-and-scallop dumplings to roasted duck rolled in pancakes, rice noodle stuffed with shrimp, and delicate pastries. Dinner is equally spectacular, with fresh seafood preparations such as squid and chicken in XO sauce and noodles braised with lobster, plus an excellent beef, taro root, and coconut sauce dish in a clay pot and salted egg mustard green soup. Try the young coconut with hashima (frog, but eat it anyway) for dessert. Full bar.
