[🥇Best New Thai Fine dining in HK @nirashongkong ] Niras, the first overseas outpost of Le Du @ledubkk helmed by Chef Ton @cheftonn , Niras shares the same DNA of Le Du and will offer the same renowned menu that earned Le Du its No.1 position on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants in 2023 The restaurant offers only tasting menu, a choice between a 4-course or a more indulgent 6-course tasting menu. I opted for their 6-course for a more complete culinary experience. Here are some of the stand-out dishes: <River prawn> The hero of the night was definitely their signature River Prawn. The monstrous river prawn was topped with bits of crispy deep-fried egg and a silky yellow sauce made from prawn head juices and Tom Yum soup. On the side was creamy black organic rice laced with shrimp paste, topped with chillies, mango, and shallots that we could mix together into a umami flavour bomb. Every bite was simply sensational and its a must-try for all prawn lovers. <Amadai with choo chee curry> It was one of the highlights, the skin was so crispy and the flesh was super tender and moist. The choo chee curry was not as recognised as Thai red or green curry and was a little closer to the richer panaeng curry. Served on the side, it provided a good foil for the meat but was not overpowering. 
<Crab rice with mushroom> Le Du’s signature shrimp paste rice, was offered here as sticky rice fried with mushrooms and topped with Japanese crabmeat, a clever combination as the rice went very well with the homemade sriracha and spices, every mouthful was a burst of umami and textures. Overall, this fine dining experience is one of a kind, flavours were impeccable and full of surprises. I particularly enjoyed the exploratory aspect of the meal where different elements are kept separate for diners to decide how we wanted to combine them. Will definitely be back again ! 📝Ratings: Deliciousness: 8.5/10 Value: 7/10 Ambience: 7/10 Service: 8/10 Recommendation: 8/10 💰$1080/four courses, $1480/six course 📍Shop 704, 7/F, K11 Musea, Victoria Dockside, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong
