Hutong Dubai is known for its authentic flavors and a menu that highlights traditional dishes from the regions of Beijing and Sichuan. Some popular menu items include Peking Duck, Kung Pao Chicken, Mapo Tofu, and Crispy Lamb Ribs. The restaurant also offers a variety of dim sum and innovative cocktail options.

At the door, willowy hostesses welcome you and lead you through the garden and into a big, dark, cavernous space.

On the inside, the space features wood-latticed ceilings, chairs made of black steel with red velvet cushions, and a Chinese wish tree in the center. The floor is tiled in black and white, and the walls have a striking carved limestone finish. It’s all a little… much.

Thankfully, Hutong’s food is rather straightforward and condensed in contrast to the lavish décor. A variety of appetizers, soups, dim sum, barbeque, seafood, veggies, rice, and noodles are available.

Although the menu claims to be northern Chinese, the majority of the dishes come from Sichuan and use that province’s renowned peppercorns as a basis. Beware, the outcome is more chilling than flaming.

There was occasionally live jazz music playing, and a DJ mixed in some upbeat sounds.

 

Two different kinds of rolls and bao buns were the first part of the three-course shared feast, which next featured a delectable cold chicken dish. The Hutong prawn rolls and the Suan cai yu Chilean sea bass rolls both had a crunchy exterior and a soft, flavorful interior. If you enjoy spice, feel free to add a little more heat with the included chilli oil. Thereafter came soft, pillowy bao buns, one filled with black pepper beef and the other with a seaweed-lotus mixture. While the latter could have used a little more of the spicy filling, both still made for delicious bites.

The main courses were Hutong seafood fried rice, Sichuan hot and sour soup, and chicken stir-fried in truffle sauce. Although the purple-hued fried rice was a little bland, it went well with the fish soup’s citrus-like spiciness, making it a unique brunch option. Hutong’s Chicken stir-fried with truffle sauce, which is often a popular, did not disappoint.

 

Our lunch was concluded with a variety of sweet dishes, including a tiny cheesecake, sticky-toffee pudding, ice cream, sorbet, fresh fruit and a sumptuous sweet bao. We had never tasted anything like the White chocolate-covered bao with a sesame mousse and caramel filling. It was a stunning dessert that was delicious as well as beautiful to eat.

Don’t forget to grab your special wishing card right before you leave so you can write down your wish, hang it high on Hutong’s wishing tree, and hope for the best.
