ON THE TOWN 4 MUST-TRY ASIAN TAPAS The oxtail tortellini is a must try at Anju (page 48). Oxtail meat is shredded and placed inside a small dumpling, with soy sauce, truffle oil and grana padano cheese poured and sprinkled on top. You’ll be ordering more than one plate of this toothsome dish. Raw Bar (page 48) in Hotel Arts has one hell of a happy hour. Tuesday to Saturday from 4 pm to 6 pm, small plates are half price. The pork belly steamed buns are a can’t-miss dish. Generous and mouthwatering portions of pork belly are topped with cherry hoisin sauce and sautéed onion before being swaddled by steamed buns. Share the large plate of Alberta trout cha ca la vong (pictured) at Foreign Concept (page 48). It’s a stand-out dish of turmeric fish served on scallion rice noodles and you’ll be wishing you ordered your own plate. The crispy mushroom dumplings at Two Penny Chinese (page 48) provide a crunchy hit of tasty mushrooms with each bite, and are divine when dipped in the addictive black truffle soy mayo.
