Step Inside Fine China, Downtown’s Stunning New Cantonese Duck Destination | Eater Dallas

"Helmed by Chef Angela Hernandez and opening Tuesday, July 10 on the Statler Hotel’s ground floor, this new Chinese eatery pairs midcentury-modern, vintage-infused interiors with a menu that blends classic and contemporary dishes. The dining room is decked out in vintage prints, velvet- and tweed-upholstered banquettes and chairs, patterned wallpaper, luxe drapery, funky pendant lamps, two-tone Edison bulbs and a giant modern chandelier; a massive U-shaped grey-topped bar with comfortable black high-top chairs sits alongside three private dining rooms and a communal table that seats 28, billed as the largest of its kind in the city. A striking wall installation of demitasse tea cups on narrow vertical stands serves as the space’s focal point. On the menu expect Hernandez’s takes on xiao long bao and Cantonese roasted duck alongside modern dishes like duck confit croquetas, and a tea-forward cocktail program led by Kyle Hilla — including the Hidden Gem (vodka, green tea, Calpico, lime, served with popping boba)." - Amy McCarthy
