Hutong

In Brickell, the upscale Chinese restaurant Hutong opens its second branch in the United States. The posh restaurant, which is already well-known in Hong Kong, is set to become well-known in Miami, where expensive Asian cuisine already does well in eateries like Novikov and Komodo. However, Hutong doesn't draw the same clientele as its rivals, where supper is typically a scene. You can concentrate on the food because of the place's quiet atmosphere and older, undoubtedly more courteous patrons. Additionally, speaking to someone across the table won't require shouting. No of your age, that's also good.

Hutong showcases its culinary skills with Peking duck, just like the majority of eateries of its kind. The 24-hour-long specialty meal is cut at the table and served two ways. First, thin sesame pancakes, matchstick onions, and cucumbers are served with slices of the succulent, crispy breast. The second course includes the carcass, which is luckily not prepared at the table and is served with lettuce cups for making your own wraps along with a wonderful sautéed mélange.

The remainder of the northern Chinese menu consists of Shanghai-sourced seafood, a selection of noodle and rice dishes, and an abundance of dim sum to split among the table. Although there is a lot of emphasis on shellfish on the menu, nothing is more mouthwatering or visually stunning than the basket of fried soft-shell crab lying on a bed of dried whole chiles. The second-best dish is the halibut floating in a red Sichuan pepper soup. Both dishes, as well as many other items on the menu, are spicy, yet the heat is moderated such that the flavors may stand out without being overpowering. The cocktails work wonderfully on the tongue if you need anything additional to ease your taste buds.
