Owner of this place used to own the Cha Chan Tang chain "New Union" that served old styled Hong Kong "Iron Plate" (鐵板扒）steaks, the previous version of this restaurant was located inside one of their Cha Chan Tangs, serving VIPs upon request. Therefore I'm very glad that they finally created a restaurant for us to enjoy their food as booking was impossible back then. I haven't been to this new restaurant before and the last time I visited them was 2 years ago so it is very exciting. Turns out I w
It's got a very nice private room which will be excellent for party. It comes with a terrace/outdoor area which would be perfect for pre-party drinks/smoking.
Menu for the night. Again too many dishes I could only show the ones that I liked the most.
Fried tofu, very crispy.
Char Siu made from Miyazaki pork. It is very very fat but also delicious! Absolute must have in this restaurant.
Golden avocado - essentially salted duck egg wrapped around avocado and deep fried. As unhealthy as that may sound, it is one of their signature dishes.
Fish belly and beef brisket pot. Not too special.
Alaskan crab stir fried in Foie Gras. Honestly speaking it is a bit too rich for me I would prefer something lighter so you can actually tastes the freshness of the crab.
Claypot ginger and spring onion abalone. I do think they are better in preparing meats and poultry comparing to seafood.
Sweet and sour pork with aged balsamic vinegar, this is an evergreen dish from them, they've been serving it for quite some time and it's fabulous as usual.
Dried shallot and black bean chicken was very tasty.
Water boiled fish. I didn't eat any of that as I'm not a big fan. Heard from friends that it's quite good, just not very authentic Sichuan style.
Fried Shitake, I thought this was very nice and probably a good replacement for French fries (in Chinese style that is)!
Their last big dish and probably one of the most famous dish here is the claypot mutton brisket. To be frank, they used to make this dish a lot better so was a bit underwhelming. This was rather unfortunate as I was really looking forward to this.
Overall I quite liked it. As we had too many people and had to meet minimum charge so we ordered according to their recommendation. If I come here next time with less people I would probably go for a la carte as there are plenty of interesting things there. Not all the food are so rich on the a la carte which is a good thing for people looking for a lighter meal. Quality wise I wouldn't be able to complain as it is quite good. Certainly would be one of my go to places for fine Chinese food with good ingredients.
