AT the beginning of the new year, Michelin plate-honored restaurant Limoni, at The Ritz-Carlton, Guangzhou, takes gourmet to a new level with a new menu presented by chef Hubert Ly, selecting seasonal ingredients and sustainable seafood prepared in the simplest way.

A native of Paris, Ly has mastered fine dining and Mediterranean-style cuisine. Respect for ingredients is embodied at every turn in his concept of cooking. He also pursues a balance between different ingredients. While satisfying the diners’ discerning taste buds, the chef also translates his affection and passion for the delicacies through the work of his hands.

Signature dishes include duck foie gras, scampi tartar, black truffle and lemon jam; wild caught John Dory, caviar, cauliflower, piedmont hazelnut soil; braised duck breast, pickled beetroot, pumpkin-orange puree, chiogga; and Ricotta and spinach ravioli, lemon and pine nut. A seasonal degustation menu and set lunch are also available for selection.

Complementing the menu is a collection of wines carefully selected by the hotel’s sommelier. Guests may walk up to the wine cellars and pick their favorite from over 200 types of Old and New World wines and grappa, or ask for professional recommendation from the staff members of the restaurant. Limoni also provides more than 20 selected wines by glass for guests’ enjoyment.

Located on the third floor with a capacity of 80 seats, Limoni guarantees a cozy and relaxed dining experience.
