The reign of the Hemmes dynasty continues with Mr Wong, an opulent Cantonese diner set within the lower floors of the Establishment building. Bamboo steamers rule the daytimes, with each thatched lid hiding a trio of stuffed and bundled treasures. One bite wonders include the fat lobster and scallop tucked in thin, translucent skins, caviar crowned pork and prawn shumai and the crunchy wagyu and truffle pastry puffs. The rest of the menu falls under the jurisdiction of executive chef Dan Hong, who has taken centuries-old dishes and thrust them into the modern age. 3 Bridge Street, Sydney; merivale.com/venues/mrwong
