- Also ordered roast chicken and it tasted quite good. The meat was soft, although a little oily, and the skin was nice and chewy.
-The restaurant isn't that big but it was a comforatble ambience.

Not-so-good:
-Restaurant prices.

Overall:
Will definitely return again, especially for the pork floss eggplant.

Braised Shark's Fins with Fish Maw

Yes people, the shark's fin is real! As we all know, this is a popular Cantonese delicacy. I found the portion very generous, and there's a variety of ingredients inside. I spotted prawns, carrot and fish maw, on top of many more.

Fried Prawns with Orange Sauce

I am a sucker for prawns, having eaten all sorts of them before. But this is the first time I'm trying it with orange sauce! Very innovative. When you first put it into your mouth, you first taste the orange, and then the taste of the prawn sets in. Surprisingly, the orange didn't taste sour at all.

Chinese Herbal Roasted Duck

Another favourite of mine is duck, so my "standard" for it is very high. We had 2 ducks combined together specially for us. I loved how the meat was tender, and the herbal taste from the duck wasn't overwhelming. Simply said, it was good!

Home Made Bean Curd with Conpoy

The tofu was smooth and soft, very suitable for all ages to eat! The broccoli and the mushroom were fresh and not too hard. Add more of the sauce, and they taste really good together.

Steamed Cod Fish with Chef' Sauce

This is the signature dish, and I'm sure there's no need to ask why! The first thing everyone said when the dish was laid on the table: "WOAH IT SMELLS DAMN GOOD!" because of all the chilli and garlic. Despite that, the taste was not too overwhelming and spicy. Fish wise, there's no fishy taste that lingers. Very soft!

Poached Spinach with Whole Garlic and 3 Eggs

I've always loved this dish, and I loved how Canto Kitchen prepared it too! I don't really like eating vegetables, but this dish always trick me in a way. I like eating the eggs and the spinach together to minimise the taste of the spinach in a way?

Spare Ribs with Yam in "Zhen Jiang" Style

This was everyone's favourite, it's damn good! The meat was soft and it goes well with it's sauce. Also, the yam was crispy, very unexpected!

Garlic Steamed Crab with Glutinous Rice

This is my first time seeing a dish like this. I never thought that food like that can be put in small steamer baskets meant for Dim Sum! Food wise, I never expected crab and glutinous rice to go well together. I don't like glutinous rice, but this was not the overly sticky kind that I'm not a fan of.

Chilled Mango with Pamelo

And we also had desserts! I love love love this dessert so much, I order it practically all the time. Honestly, this is one of the best out of all the others I've eaten! It was not sour or overly watery. Just... Nice!

I've tried Chef Kang's food located at Joo Chiat the previous time. After he closed and reopen at People's Park Centre, i was so happy and bring my family there to celebrate Father's Day in advance. After i have tasted on the dishes that i ordered, the results is thumbs up. All prices are reasonable with great dishes. Especially the old cucumber soup, i was so surprise there was additional ingredients inside this soup.
