Amber is at Landmark Mandarin Oriental and NOT the Mandarin Oriental which is my all time favourite hotel. Landmark Mandarin Oriental is of course located at The Landmark and you can just walk down from your room straight into one of Hong Kong's finest shopping malls filled with the latest fashions and jewels money, love and sex can buy.
Luckily Landmark Mandarin Oriental and The Mandarin Oriental are located 5 minutes' walk from each other so Amber is accessible whichever hotel you stay! Both hotels are equally posh though Landmark MO is new and Mandarin Oriental HK is just super grand and historic and I have stayed there at least 12 times and love it!

Claiming
the impressive 4th spot on the S. Pellegrino Asia’s 50 Best
Restaurants, Amber at
The Landmark Mandarin
Oriental, Hong Kong continues to
lead this dynamic region’s dining scene, as the “Best Restaurant in China ”.
Today’s accolade is another fine achievement for Amber which already holds
among the highest rankings in China & Hong Kong on the magazine’s
prestigious “World’s 50 Best Restaurants” list for three consecutive years, a
compilation rigorously reviewed and voted by The Diners Club® World’s 50 Best
Academy, with over 900 culinary experts, chefs and restaurateurs from 26
regions around the globe.
“My team and I are extremely honoured for Amber to earn such a coveted position among
S. Pellegrino Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants once again,” says Two-Michelin-starred
Amber’s
chef, Richard
Ekkebus. “This endorsement, particularly in Asia
where the gastronomic landscape is evolving so rapidly, instills such pride and
motivates everyone in the Amber kitchen. The list is maturing and a broader and
better representation of Asia in the list is evident, it is wonderful to receive such prestigious focus to wards Asia and put the diversity of our culinary
landscape on a world stage”.
Richard
is quick to credit his masters for
this success. The humble Dutchman began his culinary career with apprenticeships
in his native Holland
under Michelin-starred chefs Hans Snijders and Robert Kranenborg. He
then came under the tutelage of a trio of France ’s
best-known three-Michelin-starred chefs: Pierre Gagnaire, Alain Passard and Guy
Savoy. On this solid foundation of traditional French cooking techniques,
Ekkebus innovates at Amber by gathering the finest ingredients from an eclectic
diversity of origins, from Tokyo to Tasmania to Brittany .
Signature creations on the Amber menu
such as “Hokkaido Sea Urchin in a Lobster Jell-O with Cauliflower, Caviar and
Crispy Seaweed Waffles” and “Seabream glazed
with stewed mizutzko and seasonal vegetables with extra virgin olive oil and organic lemons”
delight guests while making positive impressions upon the voting panel. The multi-talented
Chef is also Chef Consultant of Fifty 8° Grill at the Group’s most recent
hotel, Mandarin Oriental Pudong, Shanghai .
“Mandarin Oriental hotels are
renowned for dining excellence,” says Greg Liddell, General
Manager of The Landmark Mandarin Oriental. “However, such international
acclaim on the S. Pellegrino Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants represents a truly
stunning achievement for The Landmark Mandarin Oriental. We look forward to continued recognition from such established
culinary authorities for Amber while working each day and night to impress the most discerning diners from around
the world.”
