dimsum was mediocre. and this is what what other people were raving about. it was bland. tasteless.
for example, we had the chicken pie - the crust was hard and too sweet.
we tried the abalone - it was expensive, nothing more.
the spring roll had black truffle - yes you could smell but not taste.
pork dumpling - too gooey

we also tried the fried rice with egg, crab meat and black truffle. there was hardly any taste.
the fried pork belly with garlic - you would think it was full of flavor due to the garlic, but total opposite.

the service was excellent though. for the small place there seemed to be too many people walking around but you never have to wait to call someone's attention.

why this has 2 michelin stars I cannot explain. I don't think those guys at michelin have gone around HK enough to find the really good, authentic places.

if it's cantonese and/or dimsum you want, there are literally dozens of other places with better food. perhaps not the ambience. but for this price, is that what you really want to spend your money on?
