We started our meal with the Preserved Smoked Chicken , featuring tender meat infused with a rich, smoky flavor. Each bite was perfectly seasoned, and the subtle notes of spice complemented the chicken's natural taste. Meanwhile, the Sliced Pig’s Knuckle in Peking Style was another highlight, the gelatinous texture mingled with a savory, slightly sweet sauce, creating an irresistible combination. Lastly, the tender Marinated Abalone with Lees offered a touch of luxury, showcasing the delicate seafood paired with a fragrant marinade.
The Hot and Sour Soup arrived next, steaming and aromatic. This classic dish was a perfect blend of heat and tang, with a complexity that kept each spoonful exciting.
For the mains, the Barbecued Peking Duck was undoubtedly the star of the evening. The skin was crisp and lacquered to perfection, while the meat beneath was succulent and flavorful. Wrapped in thin pancakes with hoisin sauce and fresh vegetables, each bite was a delightful harmony of textures and tastes. The Grilled Hills Herring provided a lighter contrast, offering a smoky, grilled flavor that paired beautifully with a hint of citrus. The Mixed Vegetable Chop Suey with Egg in Peking Style was a colorful medley of fresh vegetables, stir-fried to retain their crunch and vibrancy, while the egg added a creamy richness. Finally, the Sautéed Pig’s Trachea was an one of my adventurous choice, showcasing the chef's creativity. Its unique texture and savory seasoning encapsulated the essence of northern Chinese dining.
The Caramelized Apple were perfectly cooked, as their natural sweetness intensified by the caramelization process.
Each course was a celebration of authentic flavors, making our visit to Sun Moon Place a true culinary journey.
