Located on a prime corner of Magazine Street in the Garden District, The Kingsway is a surefire looker with its chic, dark blue exterior and sleek, bright dining room armed with wood plank flooring, cream walls and linen-draped tables. Welcome to the home of Chef Ashwin Vilkhu, who draws inspiration from several Asian cuisines and packages them in a succinct, reasonably priced tasting menu. The prix-fixe includes a range of dishes from steamed snapper in a delicate dashi broth to crispy lamb with rice noodles. The beverage program is double trouble. Clever cocktails are flavored with elements such as Thai tea, lychee, black sesame and Asian pear cordial. The wine selection, meanwhile, highlights small producers and back vintages.
