Mott 32, which opened in Hong Kong in 2014, has redefined upscale Chinese dining by integrating traditional culinary practices with contemporary design. Named after the first Chinese convenience store in America, its philosophy focuses on honoring heritage while promoting evolution. Founded by Malcolm Wood and Maximal Concepts, it quickly became a culinary sensation in Hong Kong. With eight locations worldwide and more planned, Mott 32 epitomizes how thoughtful innovation can elevate traditional Chinese cuisine globally.
"We wanted to create something that preserved the soul of Chinese cooking but presented it through a modern lens," explains Malcolm Wood, co-founder and Group Managing Director of Maximal Concepts.
The goal was never just to make another Chinese restaurant, but to create an experience that could showcase the sophistication and complexity of Chinese cuisine to the world.
Today, with eight locations spanning three continents and more on the horizon, Mott 32 stands as a testament to how thoughtful innovation can elevate traditional cuisine to new global heights.
The restaurant's name pays homage to 32 Mott Street in New York City's Chinatown, where the first Chinese convenience store in America opened in 1891.
