《漢書‧酈食其傳》所言「王者以民為天,而民以食為天。」流傳千年的古代傳統,隨同時代更迭,其寓意也隨之遞變。自起初的溫飽治國,轉化為人們對雅緻生活的追求,不僅體現於日常起居,舌尖上所嘗的鮮美、小嘴裡所嚥的甘甜,皆是常日裡的別樣意趣。臨近農曆新年,編輯於此精選數家藏於酒店內的米其林餐廳,包羅鮮香川菜、豐美粵餚與精緻台食,於紙上來場驚艷不俗的珍饈巡禮。

There was a saying that originated from the Han Dynasty: “While the king’s life depends on people, the people’s life depends on food.” As time passes, the thousand-year-old traditions are also changing their meaning. The definition of food has gone from being a daily substance to a pursuit of a higher quality lifestyle. As the Lunar New Year arrives, let us embark on a Michelin journey, where we get to explore an array of different cuisines—Sichuan, Cantonese, Taiwanese and more—all rich with excellent and delicious flavors.
The Art of Cuisine
Awarded one Michelin star for the fourth consecutive year, Ya Ge, a renowned Chinese restaurant located in Mandarin Oriental Taipei, is led by Chef de Cuisine Cheung Kwok Pong. Drawing upon nearly 25 years of culinary experience, he not only preserves the flavors of in-season, Taiwanese ingredients, but also crafts visually appealing, delicately authentic Cantonese cuisine, spoiling customers with an array of exquisite delights and the best epicurean experience.
Following Authenticity
Placing great emphasis on the authenticity, delicacy and freshness, Chef Cheung follows his Cantonese roots and carefully selects his ingredients and combinations. Never over-seasoning, he is able to present the dishes in their most authentic flavors with an innovative take on plating details. Dishes that cannot be missed include: the golden glistening Star Garoupa Fillet with winter melon, chicken and duck jus; Pork Ribs marinated in aged vinegar and pears that is a combination of Shanghai and Cantonese flavors; the enhanced signature Barbecued Black Pork with Honey, which allows the unique smoking method to bring out the sweet aroma of lychee wood, a delicacy that will leave the diners wanting more.
