Checking this one out to see if it’s living up to the hype. The most anticipated fish maw Karasumi spring roll that eminent foodie been raving about and server suggested serving first was a major letdown. Wrapper was cprisy but a tad thick for my liking. Fish maw was gelatinous but it did not blend harmoniously with the rest of the stuffing. Not exactly a good start to the evening.Roast pig has a nice crackling. Highlight for me was the 胡椒炒大肉蟹 that followed. The crab itself was incredibly sweet

Roast pig has a nice crackling.
Highlight for me was the 胡椒炒大肉蟹 that followed. The crab itself was incredibly sweet and meaty. Flavourfully deep fried in a light coated peppery batter. It was very aromatic and had a very balanced amount heat that accentuated the sweetness of the crab, not overpowering it. One of the best crabs that I’ve had this year.
爵士湯 Very hearty. Loved the fish maw that had the right amount of thickness. Cantaloupe was candy sweet too.
Crispy Chat Siu with aged mandarin peel
脆皮陳皮黑叉燒, using the belly of marumiton and sprinkled with 50-year-old aged mandarin peel powder. Interesting fragrance and flavors.
鷄汁扒蘭花苗 Sweet and tender.
三牛黑蒜油牛濃湯手工麵 The beef was incredibly tender and flavourful. Beef tendon was also properly tenderised. Broth was fused with generous helping of garlic oil. Hand pulled rice noodles were also nicely textured.
Trio of desserts to end 冰鎮杏汁黃耳燕窩豆腐, mango mochi wrap and house made coconut gelato. All deliciously done.
Overall a dinner that had gotten better over the course of the meal after the starter. A resto that is certainly living up to the hype.
