With the release of our November/December issue comes a handful of dishes that we consider some of the tasiest things we've eaten recently.

barley and mixed mushrooms
Moka Bros, RMB 58
A healthy mix of goji berries, kale, roasted carrots, garlic, parsley, and dill, this barley salad can be finished off by either adding smoked tofu (an additional RMB 18) or salmon steak (RMB 38) for an extra protein fix.

tuna and avocado tartare
Modernista, RMB 68
This starter of tuna and avocado is extremely fresh and tasty. The tuna and avocado tartare comes topped off with red caviar, and sprinkled with a light spring oil and lime juice dressing for extra zest. You’ll want to order this, to share with friends if necessary.

the black sea
La Dolce Vita, RMB 95
Made using Fregola, a Sardinian pasta, which is soaked in ink squid sauce and served with sweet paprika, this dish gets its name from its black pearl-like appearance. The sweet and spicy elements of the paprika balance well with a distinctly umami finish.

hello, you harissa chicken (pictured at top)
Tribe Lido, RMB 78
A delicious, slightly spicy mix of chicken, olives, tomato, watercress, and pickled lemon, served alongside red rice. Filling but without being so dense as to weigh you down for the rest of your day.

roasted crunchy cauliflower
The Big Smoke, RMB 40
Roasted crunchy cauliflower doused in a homemade roasted pepper sauce topped off with parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs make for the perfect side dish. Get two if you’re in a big group, you won’t regret it.
