Top choice in Wan Chai & Northeast Hong Kong Island
Worthy spin-off from the illustrious and famously wallet-unfriendly Fook Lam Moon – aka Tycoon's Canteen, for its clientele of movie stars and politicians – Seventh Son reproduces FLM's home-style dishes to a T, and a few extravagant seafood numbers as well. The food here is excellent, prices are fair, plus you get the treatment FLM reserves for regulars.
Moot point, though – you wouldn't know how regulars are treated at FLM unless you are one.
