1st Course:Four Seasons Quintessence Platter (Jellyfish, Wasabi Prawns, Smoked Black Pepper Duck, Crispy Silver Fishes and Drunken Chicken)
Better than the average cold dishes in most Chinese restaurants, grand enough to be the first dish. Inconsistency in the saltiness of the fish.
2nd Course: Bird Nest
A more savoury than sweet version of bird nest with unfortunately, overcooked chicken meat. The usage of chicken breast is inappropriate for such a cooking method, they should have used chicken drumstick instead for a more tender bite. The soup is too thick, cannot taste the authenticity of the bird nest. The bird nest appears to have undergone some sort of processing.
3rd Course: Prawns and Asparagus
Prawns are juicy and piquant to the tastebuds, but the asparagus should be bigger and remain uncut.
4th Course: Steamed Live Soon Hock, Hong Kong Style
The fish meat is really tender, generally very good! My favourite dish of the night. The sauce is light on the palate and not overwhelming, yet very tasty. They should reduce the amount of leaves for presentation though.
5th Course: Roasted Duck
Fragrant and juicy meat, but inconsistent throughout with portions more tender than the rest.
6th Course: Crabmeat and Pork Ribs
Would prefer the pork ribs to be bigger and more tender, and need more "ribs" part of the pork ribs. The crabmeat tofu is really savoury and yummy.
7th Course: Mushroom and Bo Vegetables
The sauce is too saturated and intense. Vegetables end up soaking too much of it, becoming overly salty. The mushrooms were surprisingly difficult to bite too.
8th Course: Ee Mian
One of the best ee mian I've tried. Wokhei fragrance throughout the dish.
9th Course: Red Bean Soup with Glutinous Balls with Sesame Paste
Not a fan of red bean soup and this did not change my mind about this dessert either. Bordering on being a little too watery. The best part about this were the glutinous balls stuffed generously with sesame paste.
10th Course:White Chocolate Mousse Hazelnut and Raspberry Compote
Eat in moderation as it can get too sweet and cloying, but I really love this. Sinful but so good.
