The food isn't so bad either. On this particular occasion, my husband and I went with a friend from London and another from Hong Kong. We ordered all the staples. To start we had Siu Long Bao (Shanghai Dumplings) and Peking Duck. Both were perfectly prepared and infinitely delightful. To follow, we had Sweet and Sour Fish, String Beans with Minced Pork, Hot Pot of Aubergine and Minced Pork, and a dish of Crispy Fried Noodles with Beef and Black Bean Sauce. The Peking Duck, String Beans and Aubergine Hot Pot are always particular hits with any first time diners we take to The China Club. Although not exactly gourmet in presentation or taste, the food at The China Club is always satisfying and very enjoyable. The mix of Shanghai and Cantonese cuisines on offer is a perfect combination as they complement each other well and offer the best (minus Sichuan) of Chinese cuisine. The quality of the food does tend to go up and down with each visit I make to this Hong Kong institution, but no experience is a bad experience here as the atmosphere, service and value for money is second to none in Hong Kong.
Make sure you have a drink outside on the roof after dinner. The view is awe-inspiring. The China Club is members only, but you can make a booking through some hotel concierges or if you have an American Express Centurian Card.
