Typically, I wouldn't write about a restaurant that I didn't like, but A. Wong--the Chinese restaurant outside of China with the most Michelin stars--was that much of a crushing disappointment. With waiting lists until November, my mom and I literally ran across London when we got a call that they could squeeze us in.Alas, the food just wasn't that good. For every dish, we could think of a significantly cheaper restaurant in China that could do better. We could make better-tasting food. With every dish served, we grew more anxious for the meal to be over.A. Wong's issue is not 'inauthenticity,' which may be a concern for some diners. We have loved Chinese fusions and creative dim sum before. But unique is not always preferable, as evidenced by their xiao long bao soup that simply tasted off. Attempts to be innovative fell flat with overly salty or sour aftertastes, and gimmicks like a crunch on top of the xiu mai, or painting our peking duck wraps with a paintbrush, added little to the actual flavor, leaving us very much unmoved. Even dishes where flavors were ok, like the DIY lamb buns, could not possibly justify their price (for 肉夹馍, Murger Han is an option that provides far better value).While some dishes were 'too' creative, others were the definition of mediocrity. The tofu starter or the beef rice bowl main were laughably pretentious -- a spot-the-difference game between generic Chinese food and supposed fine dining. The pickled vegetables atop the tofu could have been store-bought 涪陵榨菜; the so-called spicy wagyu beef mixture under the corn starter was suspiciously reminiscent of 老干妈. A restaurant whose flavors are either unpleasant or unexceptional is hardly deserving of the praise that A. Wong has garnered.The best restaurants are good because their food is truly original and memorable, not just aesthetically interesting. A. Wong offers nothing special in flavor, service, or environment, yet is exorbitantly priced. Our repeated lamentation of the night was: what were you thinking, Michelin?Dined: September 6, 2021
