I came here for breakfast once after a night stay at the St. Regis hotel. It was OK. Didn't particularly find their breakfast amazing. However, my mind was changed after going back for lunch on a Saturday afternoon with my family for a fancy 1 Michelin 🌟 dim sum fix.Out of my surprise, this place was extremely popular and booked out for a couple of months especially on the weekends. Similar to the popularity of Lung Keen Hing, a 3-star Michelin for Cantonese cuisine. Luckily, we managed to score
However, my mind was changed after going back for lunch on a Saturday afternoon with my family for a fancy 1 Michelin 🌟 dim sum fix.
Out of my surprise, this place was extremely popular and booked out for a couple of months especially on the weekends. Similar to the popularity of Lung Keen Hing, a 3-star Michelin for Cantonese cuisine. Luckily, we managed to score a reservation for a Saturday within 3 weeks with American Express Platinum Card.👏🏻
We ordered a la carte and shared various dim sum dishes, which included Deep Fried Lobster Spring-roll (HK$ 168), Deep Fried Diced Wagyu Beef with Black Pepper Sauce (HK$ 128), Steamed Shrimp Dumplings (HK$ 98) and Steamed Shrimp and Pork Dumplings (HK$ 148). They tasted good, but nothing mind-blowing.
We also tried their Fried Rice with Mullet Roe (HK$138 p.p.) and Wok-fried Crab Claw with Dried Shrimp and Bean Curd Sheets (HK$ 368 p.p.). Both were flavorful and delicious, but expensive as the price was per person. Especially the crab claw 💰💰💰 Small portion for the price. You could almost get a whole crab at that price, instead of just a claw.

Most interesting and adorable dish was their Baked Crispy Bun with Diced Chicken in Porcupine form! Too bad other cute dishes I wanted to try were already off menu. Their menu changed seasonally.
My favorite was Barbequed Iberico Pork (HK$ 368). Super succulent with crispy smoked flavored on the outside, it was absolutely the highlight of the meal. Perhaps the best BBQ pork I have eaten in Hong Kong. On par with Lung Keen Hing's BBQ pork, which was my favorite.
Their desserts were also tasty. We got the Dessert Duo (HK$98) which was Chilled Ginger Panna Cotta and Deep Fried Sesame ball with Mashed Pumpkin and the Chill Pink Guava Cream Sago with Coconut Jelly (HK$ 78), which I really enjoyed and devoured.
Lunch for 3 people (without tea, no alcohol) was : HK$ 3100.
Overall, it was a delectable but expensive lunch. Get your wallet and taste-buds ready. Worth to try
