Our usual dim sum place was full, so we drove to Wan Chai to see what we could possibly have for lunch. We were planning to go to a kebab place, but it was not opened. I then noticed there was a Tsui Wah right beside the kebab stall. Is it just me or is Tsui Wah popping up everywhere? The outside looked quite classy for a Tsui Wah, and I always love coming to this place for slightly overpriced local food. We entered the restaurant and were ushered upstairs. I must say, the decor was quite impres
This dish was served hot. The portion appeared much smaller than in the other Tsui Wah Restaurants. The soup was definitely over-seasoned. The ham was cold and quite fatty. The toast was really small, but the eggs were cooked very well. This dish came within two minutes of placing our order, which is what I call speedy service.
This dish was served hot. Once again the portion was tiny in comparison to the other Tsui Wah Restaurants. The soup was was only a little bit over-seasoned this time. The shredded pork was very fat. This dish took five minutes to come, which I would still consider very speedy service.
This is one of Tsui Wah's all time most popular dishes. The portion was tiny, however the bun was very crispy. My dad commented that it was not up to it usual standard, but liked how they did not douse the bun in condensed milk. The amount was just right.
I always order this, as it is one of my all time favourite dishes. The dish was steaming, and when I put a bite to my mouth, it was too hot. That is a very good sign. There were more ingredients then usual, which I liked very much. The noodles were fried perfectly and the portion although it appeared smaller, was actually larger than at other Tsui Wah Restaurants. My only complaint was that there was too much sauce, and it was more viscous than usual, I prefer it slightly thicker.
This was a huge disappointment. As a classic Tsui Wah dish, I believe the standard of this pineapple bun was appalling to say the least. First, it was not hot. Secondly, the top of the pineapple bun was not crisp at all. With that being said, when I finally proceeded to bite into the bun, it was not warm, or tender, and I felt really disappointed. I think if this branch is to survive, the pineapple bun must be improved to meet the high quality standards set at this restaurants other establishments. Otherwise, the reputation of Tsui Wah in my mind will drop many points.
Luckily, the milk tea was not a disappointment. A classic, and a definite must have. What really added value to this simple local drink was the presentation and the choice of cups to serve it in. Hot, yummy, rich, soothing goodness.
The overall dining experience was pleasant. It was not crowded at all, probably because it was only 11:00am on a Sunday morning. I am delighted that there is now a Tsui Wah in Wan Chai, as it is less crowded then Causeway Bay and Central. However, the quality at this branch is much lower than the other eateries. Maybe, this place still needs a little bit more time to get into the swing of things, but I'm not sure I will be returning here in the near future. I will, however be paying the Tsui Wah in Causeway Bay a visit to restate my confidence in this restaurants pineapple bun.
题外话/补充资料:
For first time diners, it may be useful to know that it is customary to bring the bill downstairs to pay. I would also recommend going on a Sunday morning as there will be less people, however if you want an authentic Tsui Wah experience, then you have to go at lunch time on a business working day. It is great that there is now a Tsui Wah in Wan Chai near the bars, a good place to sober up after a good night out at the nearby bars and clubs.
