1. Bao Bei

    Chinese

    Chef Joël Watanabe's brasserie at the edge of Chinatown trades tradition for invention, elevating humble Chinese classics with precise technique and unexpected elements—fried rice studded with prawns and bitter melon, mantou buns layered with braised pork and miso-serrano aioli. The cooking is playful without being precious, grounded in quality ingredients and a genuine understanding of flavor.
