Xiu is from the same culinary geniuses behind Lugang Café, Tuan Tuan and The Dessert Kitchen. The restaurant’s name literally translates to “elegance,” and it definitely reflects that quality from the ambience to the food. They’ve pooled in the expertise of Hong Kong chefs to serve the finest Cantonese dishes. Just some must-tries are the Honey-Glazed Char Siu and the Double-Boiled Fish Maw Almond Soup.

Craving for something other than Cantonese? Xiu also offers excellent dishes like Cheesy Baked Lobster, Stewed US Beef Short Ribs, and Seafood Black Ink Rice.
