In Chinese, "Hong Kong" means “fragrant harbor.” Though it’s called so for its abundance of incense trees, the name is also an apt description for a city brimming with appetite-inducing aromas, thanks to the multitude of dishes being stir-fried, steamed or baked around virtually every turn. The city’s dining scene may be dominated by Cantonese cuisine (characterized by subtle, nuanced flavors and fresh ingredients), but international influences also abound. Because Hong Kong is a port city, plenty of global food trends — and gorgeous seafood — find their way into the city’s kitchens. Thus, old meets new in this city that boasts a culinary scene as vibrant as its glittering skylines. Go forth and uncover the culinary treasures that await.
