Oolong in Rome's Centro Storico is Jiang Yan's small Chinese dining room on Piazza San Paolo alla Regola, cooking imperial recipes and eight regional schools.
OrderThe lacquered duck served in three courses, ordered when you book, plus the four-flavour ravioli.
TipDinner only, Wednesday to Sunday. The room is tiny and the underground imperial hall seats few, so book ahead.
Song in Rome's Prati is Lin Sang Chu's Hong Kong dim sum house on Via Valadier, steaming xiao long bao and crystal dumplings and roasting duck over 30 hours.
OrderThe eight-piece dim sum tasting, then the Peking duck with crepes if there are two of you.
TipOpen daily for lunch and dinner. The dim sum set is about 29 euros; the duck is 18 euros and worth planning around.
Sina Hotpot on Via Ghibellina is the Florence branch of a Prato hotpot house: a simmering pot per table, mild, spicy or split broth, thin-cut meats and tofu.
OrderThe split pot, half mild and half spicy, with the sliced meat platter and mushrooms, added as you go.
TipBookings by WhatsApp or online; the Prato original runs late, the Florence room closes at 23:00. Good for groups, since the pot is shared and the pace is slow.
