...This kind of quality control has helped to keep Garnaut in business for two decades in an industry notorious for failure. So has the combination of homely Australian cum Mediterranean cuisine (her salt-baked lamb is a comfort-food classic), served in highly original settings. The latter constitute a distinctive selling point in a country where smart restaurants are more likely to be found in the contrived spaces of soaring hotels or office-block podiums. "When I first arrived in Asia," she explains, "I was in Hong Kong and got into a lift to go up to a restaurant...

The mixed-vegetable platter and the sampler dish of Inner Mongolian lamb will give you plenty of things to simmer, and go well with either the mushroom broth or the herbal black-chicken soup. The latter features medicinal ingredients like goji berries and red dates for extra goodness. Get a side order of the restaurant's award-winning sesame crispbread, and wash it all down with a jug of cold soybean milk. Dinner for two runs...
