The upscale Chinese restaurant “MOKONE” has opened at the Crowne Plaza Hong Kong, with a 7,500 square foot space featuring simple and elegant decor, creating a spacious and comfortable feel. The Chinese cuisine in the restaurant is crafted by Executive Chef Lei Yip, combining creativity with traditional and innovative flavors in a variety of classic dishes.
One of the dishes that can be tasted in the middle is the “Ancient Kunlun Abalone”, which requires a lot of effort to make. The dragon skin needs to be steamed, soaked in ice water, deodorized, and simmered over low heat. Before serving, the dragon skin and abalone, along with the abalone sauce, are heated and lightly cooked to allow the dragon skin to fully absorb the rich and fresh abalone sauce. The other main ingredient, abalone, is selected from South Africa’s premium tender dried abalone, which absorbs the collagen from the dragon skin during cooking, resulting in a refreshing, elastic, and smooth texture.
Another featured dish is the “Baked Salted Black Truffle Prosperity Chicken,” which reinterprets the traditional Prosperity Chicken. Local Tai’an chicken with a particularly rich chicken flavor is selected, stuffed with abalone, chestnuts, black truffle slices, etc., wrapped in fresh lotus leaves and coarse sea salt, and baked at high temperature. This allows the ingredients to emit a fresh lotus fragrance, and the texture of the chicken meat is even richer!

The recommended soup is the “Emperor Orchid and Conch Stewed Fish Maw”, which contains thick South American grade A duck gizzard fish maw and conch slices. The soup is rich and delicious. Other must-try dishes include the “Crystal Shrimp with Sea Urchin and 15-year-old Caviar” garnished with sea urchin and 15-year-old caviar, and the “Dragon Pearl” with lobster soup cheese and lobster meat complementing Taiwanese juicy pears, which are equally surprising.
