I saw this is a Michelin-rated restaurant so brought my family here for my dad’s birthday.Their 白玉葡萄 (wintermelon with soup, in the shape of pretty grapes) was pretty cute and I found it a quite enjoyable experience. Looks nice on the table too. The 雞煲奇味 was also rather tasty. These are the two best dishes I feel for the whole night.擔擔麵 personally I’ve found it fairly average (felt I’ve definitely eaten much better noodles in many other restaurants), though I personally found the 改良版 with 肉碎 tas

擔擔麵 personally I’ve found it fairly average (felt I’ve definitely eaten much better noodles in many other restaurants), though I personally found the 改良版 with 肉碎 tasted better than the original spicy. The noodles were thin and rather plain, and if you don’t eat it with the soup & sauce/dressing then I feel it’s not particularly striking. But even when you do, it didn’t really have the wow factor as I’d imagined they would have — as a 招牌菜。
To me, Q版松鼠鱼 was better in taste than appearance. I’m not much of a fan of this, felt like the sweet-sour sauce was somewhat too strong and it hid the taste of the fish. However my mom disagreed and found it quite fine - she also was satisfied with the fish meat (conceding here I’ve only eaten a few pieces and not as much as her). We do all agree it’s a bit expensive though.
牛腩筋煲 was super super 燉得軟, 軟到 like 被打斷腿筋 & boiled all the springiness out of it 的牛, but lost the zing flavor when it’s that soft. Personally I did not find it very remarkable.
楊家小湯包 was dainty, there’s a little 清甜 if you eat it in 小小口。
生煎包 I didn’t understand why it’s recommended at all. To me it felt like what you could have gotten with a good, expensive brand in a supermarket. But to each their own preference I suppose.
冬菇小棠菜 there’s nothing very remarkable about it at all. It’s the standard you can get at home cooking. Don’t spend $78 for this unless you really are in dire and absolute need of some veggies and didn’t care about value for money.
Our entire meal cost $900++
