I must admit that I quite like the whole dining experience, primarily cuz service was wonderful, attentive without being intrusive, and always one step ahead (cups were refilled promptly, plates were changed regularly etc). Well done!Excellent service aside, the food had some hits and misses. I love the gimmicky fruit juice ($3++ per test tube), a refreshing blend of green apple, papaya, lemon and cai xin. And the really outstanding dishes to me are the deep-fried cod fillets coated with salted
Excellent service aside, the food had some hits and misses. I love the gimmicky fruit juice ($3++ per test tube), a refreshing blend of green apple, papaya, lemon and cai xin. And the really outstanding dishes to me are the deep-fried cod fillets coated with salted egg yolk ($28++) and the deep-fried prawns with wasabi-mayo sauce ($28++). Non-oily at all and flavours were spot on!
Here’s the so-so dishes: decent but not ultra smooth braised homemade beancurd with wild fungus and conpoy crisps ($20++); bland sea cucumber stuffed with “lion head” ($16.80++); tough and chewy Shanghai-style wok-fried ‘nian gao’ ($18++); and my must-order of poached vegetables with 3 kinds of eggs ($18++) was disappointingly insipid, nothing like the flavourful version from Pu Tien!
