TungLok Signatures

I just had salts egg prawns & roast pork烧肉 at a 13pax RI friends G20 dinner at peach garden @ metropolis the evening before, and that was good too. We can see from the photos that the presentation & colours of the 2 dishes at tunglok were better. taste-wise they were close – the roast pork烧肉 about same, the salted egg prawns maybe tunglok a tad better.We had the deep-fried cod fillet that seemed to be salted egg flavoured also. it was a well executed dish, somewhat oily. not really a preferred preparation for me. the same dentist friend & mei mei had a birthday dinner for me in 2013 here at this same tunglok outlet. we had star garoupa fillet with broccoli & lily bulbs & that was very good. of course for me, steamed fish is the best. haha!^^ We had the elegant 三层楼, which is a tunglok long standing dish of fried bean curd on spinach & shimeji mushrooms. there was a newer dish of charcoal tofu with lily bulbs 百合. Both tofu dishes were very nice! Next was a string beans with egg plant. just mildly spicy (if any at all) & quite nicely done. Another dish was a bit unusual combination, some squash with japanese edamame & slightly sweet sauce. can’t figure out this dish. As it was a birthday, the restaurant provided complimentary longevity buns 流沙寿桃. they were presented together with our own birthday cake, and handwritten “calligraphy” by a talented restaurant manager. haha! 少年壮志当十一 英俊潇洒二十一 状元高中三十一 年龄岁岁四十一 成就显赫五十一 儿孙满堂六十一 回想当年七十一 福禄寿全八十一 享受人生九十一 要找北京101？？？ The message changes according to occasions, so the guy must have a whole bookcase of them. haha!^See my full reviews & photos at = http://chefquak.com/2015/05/28/a-relaxing-birthday-dinner-at-tunglok-signature-central-on-27may2015/last evening, we had a birthday dinner for another close friend at tunglok signature @ central on 27.5.2015. ^^ …Read More

Patronized one of my favourite restaurant for lunch on a fine day...I love their shark's fin soup. It's very special and unique. I was first attracted by its presentation. The bowl of shark's fin soup was attached to its plate with some wax, and its lighted with fire so as to keep the bowl of shark's fin warm. The soup taste awesome! Not very starchy and has Tung Lok's unique touch to it.Pork Siew Mai - still taste great!The samshui chicken, however, doesn't taste as nice as the one in soup restaurant. The chicken rice is not that tender, and it's a little uncooked such that the reddish marks on the chicken bones makes one lose its appetite. The chicken paste is quite tasty though.The deep fried dumplings definitely goes well with the mayonnaise sauce. Thumbs-up!Overall, Tung Lok still has not failed me... I will definitely continue to support them as long as their standard of food remains as good as now. …Read More

I got some Tung Lok vouchers which were expiring soon so have to head down and use it. I decided to spend it at Tung Lok Signatures @ The Central. The staff are very friendly, helpful and patient even though I hesitated for quite some time when deciding on what to order. At the end, we ordered the Braised Bee Hoon, Sweet & Sour Prawns and Mango Roll! The whole restaurant gives me the impression of a very bright and spacious oriental decor. Braised Bee Hoon: The springy bee hoon soaked up the flavourful and tasty broth cooked with conpoy, egg white and ham. It is simple and nice! Sweet & Sour Prawns: Fried prawns coated with tangy sweet sauces, very appetizing! Mango Roll: Fresh mango wrapped in thin chewy glutinous rice sheet cover with shredded coconut.…Read More

The FoodI ordered the Braised Pork Belly ($20), Deep Fried Frog Leg and BBQ Peking Duck ($28)I loved the rich, strong braised flavour of the pork belly and was robust and heady, with thick black oyster goo. As for the deep fried frog leg, even though is deep fried, still can taste the freshness of the frog leg and the meat is crispy and juicy on the inside Lastly for the Peking Duck, the duck skin is crispy and sweet wrapped in a steamed pancake served with spring onions and sweet Hoisin sauce. The ServiceI find the service to be quite good. Waitresses are friendly and attentive to our requests. Overall, I've had a good impression of the service here. The AmbienceIt is a wonderful place with cosy ambience and the best place where we can celebrate birthdays or have a reunion dinner. The service there is always excellent and the waitresses will always smile. The PriceSpent about $100 for the final bill.OverallI will definitely come back again to try the other dishes and highly recommended to try this !! …Read More

The mooncake box was really traditional looking. It even haa a traditional lady printed on it. There were a few different flavours to choose from. For our case, my dad bought the standard combination of 'Low sugar red beans with champahne' and 'Mocha with bailey's'. Both types of mooncake tasted really good. Each of them had a chocolate ball within, either containing champagne or bailey's. …Read More
