King’s Joy

Beijing, China

Widely thought of as the gold standard of vegetarian dining, this spacious restaurant twists Chinese classics away from their carnivorous background. Chef-owner Gary Yin chooses to utilise a range of culinary techniques, melding east and west together to create a unique dining destination within Beijing. Textures and tastes are playful and challenge guests at each turn across its tasting menu, like in the sweet-and-sour braised monkey’s head mushrooms paired with pineapple chunks, thin-sliced straw mushrooms and nuts. Truly at the helm of global vegetarian cooking. Don't be afraid to return, though, as its menu rotates every 15 days.
