Chi Fan For Charity Restaurant Highlight: Gui Hua Lou

One showstopper from the exclusive CFFC menu is his steamed crab roe with egg white. Particularly apt for those who love crabs but can’t be doing with the fiddly mafan of eating them, the preparation of this dish preserves the pure flavors of the ingredients. “I see cooking as an art form,” says Chef Gao.”Using the freshest ingredients as my canvas, I am inspired to bring out pure flavors using delicate and deft strokes to create dishes that are reflections of nature’s gifts to us.”

Price: RMB700 per person
