Spoon by Alain Ducasse

Alain Ducasse’s innovative French food rarely has to compete for attention but the location of this restaurant, in the Intercontiental Hotel, is nothing short of stunning. Diners sit almost at water-level with expansive views of the Hong Kong skyline (the hotel and restaurant are in Kowloon), and the dining room is decked out with a massive chandelier made of more than 500 Murano glass—what else?—spoons.
