Old Hong Kong Legend (Closed)

This is the first time I went to Old Hong Kong Legend at Raffles City Shopping Centre. Not easy to find this restaurant because it is at the corner of the shopping mall. Luckily it is next to Esprit so I could see it. When I step in, there is a stone dragon pillar in the middle of the restaurant. Very very attractive. I've ordered quite a lot of food and enjoy so much, especially the soup of the day. Hong Kong soup is so nice. Roasted pork and Typhoon Shelther-style fried crab are perfect

Dim Sum is one of those comfort foods that I really enjoy eating, but sadly my experience at Old Hong Kong Legend wasn't a very good one. The only interesting dish that was good is this deep-fried prawn ball which had a nice springy texture to it. The meat they used in the Char Siew Pau is not the high quality char siew you would expect to find at a Chinese restaurant, but tasted more like those you get for $1 at a kopitiam. Overall, the food wasn't that great and I don't think I would return a

I was with my family and we decided to get some food from Old Hong Kong Legend, since it's conveniently located at Raffles City. The Yi Pin Guo was very good, consisting of sea cucumber, broccoli, scallops and abalone; portion was generous as well, and the food well braised. I also liked the noodles with prawn, as the gravy was flavourful and the prawns big and fresh. The stir-fried pork with ginger and leek was average.

Interesting combination served piping hot are the baked avocado seafood puff. Within this sweet Chinese pastry are combination of generous pieces of avocado, vegetables and crab sticks. The amount of egg added to the puff gives a rich brown top and good flavour together with the generous amount of toasted sesame seed on top of each flaky puff. These bite sized puff goes well with a cup of hot Chinese tea.

Tim Sum can be considered as one of the most complex food item in the Chinese cuisine requiring different types of culinary techniques through out the whole food preparation process. These glistening steamed crystal dumplings with mixed vegetables caught my eyes.Such delicate translucent skin with a blend of mixed vegetables including diced mushroom are wrapped around for each prism shaped parcel.

Dim sum is one my favorite especially on a weekend morning =) Was supposed to go Royal China at Raffles Hotel but we were getting a bit late and they have a certain time slot for you to finish so decided to change venue.Closest to us will be Old HK Legend so here we are! I find the dim sum are decent. Char Siew Sou was pretty good! It's always one of the must order whenever i have dim sum. Love the buttery texture of the skin and the moist char siew filling! Simply bliss with every mouthful i t

Old Hong Kong Legend is one of my favourite restaurant for dim sum! Their food are delicious, definitely well-presented and looks very appetizing. We started of with a bowl of Double-boiled shark's bone cartilage soup ($18 per person). The soup is very rich in collagen, the flavour is so good that I'm totally in love with it. It's served in whole 'shark's fin' melon that gives extra sweetness to the soup. One could also taste the yellow fungus and wolfberry in the soup. Overall speaking, two thu

Upon seated, pickles (80 cents/person) will be served on the table. The dried tofu pickles is plain but nice to bite on.This appetizer was having promotion at that time and only costs $9.8/set (usual price $13.8). The trio appetizer consists of the 10-head abalone marinated with Chinese wine, the Vinaigrette black fungus, as well as the Marinated jelly fish with spicy sauce. The cold dish is such a pleasant start of the meal in the hot afternoon. Steamed stuffed eggplant, beancurd, bell pepper (

Dim sum isn’t my type of food, if I have a choice, I hardly choose dim sum. A friend of mine invited me for this dim sum for afternoon tea, prices are 20% less on all items on weekdays. I have an impression of this restaurant is target for high market, hence, shark fin, birds nest, abalone etc kind of food. Their decoration was nice and seating was spacious.We reached there at 2:30pm, the lunch crowd just left and we could enjoy a peaceful moment for our afternoon tea. This was my first visi

I used the discount coupon to eat at this restaurant. The menu picture looks so great on the food. So we get to order some promotion items. Shark fin is one of the food that we ordered in the promotion. I ordered a tea with a teapot. The tea taste good and the teapot looks nice. The food menu at Raffles City and Serangoon Garden Village seems like a bit different. I still prefer to eat at Serangoon Garden Village, as not so crowded and the food suits me.

From 11 to 13 April, Old Hong Kong Legend has a special menu prepared especially by Michelin Star Chef Ng Sui Hong and executive Chef Yau Chin Ping. =) Being a fan of Hangzhou cuisine I just had to try it out. And so, I went to their newest branch at Raffles City Shopping Center. It was during lunch time so there weren't many people dining. It was good for me and my friend since we didnt have to wait long to be entertained.I then ordered the Michelin menu they have. It was a bit expensive, yes,
