“Mo Huan” Yunnan Tavern Opens in Lan Kwai Fong

A New Dining Destination Blending Tradition with Ethnic Wisdom

(Hong Kong, August 26, 2025) – Nestled on the 7th floor of California Tower in Central, Hong Kong welcomes a bold new addition to its culinary scene: Mo Huan Yunnan Tavern (蘑歡雲南小酒館). As the sister restaurant to the acclaimed Mo Huan Bistro in Shanghai, this stylish tavern celebrates the refined complexities of modern Yunnan cuisine—crafted with heritage, wild ingredients, and ethnic culinary artistry.

Celebrating the Diversity of Yunnan

Yunnan, known for its rich biodiversity and vibrant ethnic cultures, is home to some of the most unique flavors in China. At Mo Huan, the culinary philosophy is rooted in authenticity and innovation. The chefs draw from Yunnan’s time-honored culinary traditions while infusing techniques from ethnic minorities across the province.

From age-old preserved delicacies to rare wild mushrooms and Bai-crafted dairy treasures, every dish showcases the best seasonal ingredients, including foraged mountain mushrooms and regional spices. The result is a thoughtful menu that pays tribute to Yunnan’s land and people.

    A regional favorite made with wild porcini mushrooms and spicy Qiubei chilies. Rich, earthy, and just the right amount of heat.

  • Tiger Paw Mushroom with Ham & Silver Sprouts – HK$528
    A rare find from the Yunnan cliffs, tiger paw mushrooms are wok-fried with cured ham and crisp silver sprouts—a textural triumph of forest meets farmhouse.

  • Assorted Mushrooms in Banana Leaf – HK$128
    A Dai ethnic specialty where seasonal wild mushrooms are wrapped in fragrant banana leaf with lemongrass and chili, then grilled over charcoal. A dish that speaks to the soul of the jungle.

Inspired by the Aesthetics of the Wa Ethnic Group
