I hadn't a clue what this building was going to be when it was being built but it definitely stands out on the road being silver and metallic.
Inside there is a cute wooden house right in the middle of this spacious hall.
On the first floor, there is a Chinese restaurant where people can dine before the show or for the theatrical groups to go and celebrate.
To tie in with Chinese opera, Moon Lok serves quality Cantonese dishes and dimsum by day.
The restaurant is also conveniently located near the China Ferry terminal and Sorrento so you will also find a residential and commercial crowd.
Started with Chinese Roast which was great for sharing and definitely delicious accompanied with rice.
Both were served with soy beans.
The roast pork was impressive, they were thick chunky pieces.
The roast pork we got was soft and moist.It was quite lean as well which was brilliant.
On the healthy side there was the braised mixed mushrooms with fungus.There were four different types of fungus in that dish.
It would be good if it wasn't that oily though because it defeats the purpose of being healthy.
For the mains, we had the eel steamed in plum which makes it refreshing as the plum balances the oilyness of the eel.They also have it in black bean sauce.
The fried rice with minced beef was inspired by risotto which is why it looked so moist when it came.It was quite nice and tasted like fried rice risotto which the chef intended.
Last but not least was the steamed crab with pork patty which was a huge meat patty ring mixed with crab roe then steamed with the crab shell on top.The pairing of pork and crab meat were surprisingly good together.
Finished with the almond soup which was nutty and milky.
As it is newly opened, I think I will come back for dimsum and see how it fares.
