Inside Lung King Heen: The First Chinese Restaurant To Receive Three Michelin Stars | TIME

Few people understand not only how hard it is to get three stars, but more so to maintain them. Unbelievable that they have kept that level of excellence for ten years. Incredible!

Heh, what makes me happy is listening to them speak Cantonese. It's so refreshing to hear. Kudos to you Lung King Heen!

So many salty comments ! Firstly the restaurant isn't forced to accept the stars, if they don't think they are valid or don't care they can refuse. Nobody knows who the reviewers are, they could well be people from HK, so lets not say they are from France and don't know how to rate Chinese food. I didn't see any evidence that the restaurant adjusted their cooking style to suit western tastebuds. This is high priced restaurant popular with local rich people as well as tourists. Also there is nothing wrong with using non-traditional ingredients to create new flavour combinations. Restaurants in every country do it ! They are still using the traditional cantonese cooking style. I didn't see them doing any of the molecular gastronomy type stuff.

love to see the head chef act so humble and look at his staff with such respect. its no wonder hes able to keep three stars since he doesn't cook for himself but for his culture, for his staff, and for his customers

I don't get why so many people are against Asians pushing the boundaries of their food. Western food is suppose to keep innovating and integrating ingredients from all over the world while Asian food is somehow supposed to remain as "traditional" as a badly dubbed Kung Fu movie...

I'm Cantonese and can tell you that this restaurant is legit

Why is everyone going crazy, they make good food, its exciting for asians to try new things made the cantonese way and frankly to me this actually looks super tasty. The staff are clean cut and dedicated, the food is well presented and looks smart and appetizing why is everyone complaining? They experiment and apply new ways to make chinese food tasty, its fresh and inviting!

You can feel how much the Head Chef loves his team. Exactly why this Restaurant is successful. Kudos to leaders like him.

Everyone: complaining about people complaining. Me: can’t find a single complaint.

I love how he embodies traditional asian values into his restaurant. It's a family. His staffs are his partners and the customers his children. With all the intense culinary competition and high tension in michelin starred restaurants in the west this is such a delightful relief.

I love how this guy said he doesn't have any particular inspiration in becoming a chief, just wants to make a living, ease out some of the financial pressure of his mom and slowly work his way to the top.

He's a very humble man. I like him! I like it when he said that he doesn't put the pressure on his staff. And that he doesn't only call them "my staff" but also PARTNERS. I really like that. I think that's the thing that is missing in most of the workplace.

That chef literally looks like the end boss of Chinese cooking.

This was one of the best meals of my life.

He shows lots of respect to his stuff , that's something that defines a leader ✌🏼

3 stars isn't just about the food; wait service, restaurant design, efficiency, even coffee and wine all matter. The overall experience gets you 3 stars

Great video. And a great view of quality Cantonese cuisine at the top of the pyramid. It was much more enjoyable watching this real kitchen action than those of many other Michelin-star places where they spend so much time dressing up the plates and forget about the food quality.

Yesss!! When I can help out someone younger than me it’s freaking gold!!

I really love southern Chinese food. Hope I'll visit Hong Kong 1 day

Congrats! A wonderful achievement!
