Cyan earns its place in the leaning tower. Come for the 18th-floor panorama, then settle into French cooking with regional accents that have more personality than a predictable hotel menu. The business lunch is a good introduction; save the longer tasting set for an evening with time to spare.

What to expect
01Cyan's windows are almost as compelling as its food: look across the city from the 18th floor of Capital Gate.
02The kitchen combines French brasserie techniques with familiar regional flavours; the business-lunch set includes dishes such as hummus bil lahmeh.
03You can keep a visit efficient with two courses at lunch or book a longer five-course tasting when the view deserves more time.
★ WHAT WE'D DO
“Try the hummus bil lahmeh or burrata from the business-lunch choices, or book the five-course Table d'Introduction.”
♥ LOCAL TIP
“Ask for a window-side table on the 18th floor. If you want a shorter meal, the weekday two- or three-course lunch is a better fit than the five-course tasting.”
