The restaurant theme is very ancient Chinese with bright neon lights of red and blue. It is a sister restaurant with Tian Tian next door so the history is pretty connected as well. We were debating on which restaurant to go to as both needed to queue and at the end went to this as Tian Tian did not have any water or tea that night 😶.

Smoked Deep-Fried Chicken w/ Longjing Tea Leaves (烟熏龙井炸鸡(半只)) $168
The chicken was very smoky and I could tell when it arrived as the air just filled with smoke aroma 😅. The skin is thin as paper and just as crisp. The meat is surprisingly tender and soft although lacking in flavor and seasoning. The tea leaves are smoked well and good with the chicken as well. The chicken is also not as oily and fatty as typical fried chicken which is good. All the parts used appear to be breast and back but that could differ.

Crab Roe & Pea Sprouts 蟹粉豆苗 $88
Big chunks of crab in but surprisingly very little flavor and taste of actual crab roe 🤨. The pea sprouts though were crunchy and light. Eating it together had a nice texture but the crab roe definitely did not provide any additional taste.

Chinese Lean Pork & Duck Liver Sausages w/ Kale in Claypot (啫啫双肠芥兰煲) $78
The kale is crunchy and firm with a nice 3:1 ratio between stems and leaves. The sausages however were given a bit poorly with only 2 thin pieces of each, although the taste was impeccable.
The kale is also seasoned very well with tastes of garlic and ginger that continues cooking in the claypot.

Fried Glutinous Rice (蛇王芬山炸糯米饭) $38
I personally do not like fried glutinous rice but I’ll give this an unbiased review so you can see for yourself. We ordered this as al their other rice dishes were unavailable 😕.
The rice is chewy and well seasoned on each grain, perhaps a bit too chewy as it did stick to my teeth a lot. There is also sufficient toppings of chopped lean pork sausages and peanuts for a nice crunch and extra umami-ness. Quite a big portion as well and very filling.

Scallion Oil Stirred Noodles w/ Prawns (虾球海味葱油干捞面) $88
Super tender and soft prawns with a light crunchy outside too 🤤🤤. The prawns were already butterflied so it absorbed the flavor even better. The texture is extremely silky as well. There is 4 big plump prawns.
The noodles were delicious as well, with an appearance and smoothness of rice noodles but the chewiness and texture of wheat noodles. Perfect vessel for the scallion-soy-oil sauce and fried scallions as well 😋.
Sadly, it did get a bit dry towards the end but that just means you have to eat it faster 😅😂.
The noodles also all come in this really big bowl with a blue chinese pattern. Highly amusing and fun to eat out of with the big wooden spoon they give as well 😝.

Noodles in Yellow Croaker Soup (原条黄鱼喂面) $98
The highlight of my night.
The fish is served beautifully with it fried as a whole. The meat inside is flaky, soft and melts. Exactly what you want white fish to be. The outside is crispy due to a thin layer of batter and makes the contrast between the meat and skin that much more compatible. The only sadness was that there is a lot. And I mean A LOT of big and small bones in the fish 😞.
The noodles are the same as the stirred noodles and this time, the springiness and chewiness of them hung onto the soup extremely well, the noodles are surprisingly not heavy or filling at all and honestly it’s close to being the best noodle I’ve ever eaten 🥸🤫.
The springy noodles are also well compatible with the long strands of scallions they give. Very acidic but welcomes a new flavor combination.
The soup is extremely flavorful as well. With richness and lightness coming from the yellow croaker. It’s not heavy or oily at all and I wished there was more of it. But sadly, the amount of soup was estimated accurately by the restaurant so they give you just enough for all the noodles to be eaten without being dry 😶.

Snake Banquet (花胶太史蛇羹) $98
The signature of this restaurant ✨.
The bowl is actually very deep so the portion size is quite sufficient for 1-2 people to share or even 4 to try a taste.
The amount of snake in it blew my mind, every bite I took there is at least 40% of it being snake. The snake is also very tender and flavorful, thinly sliced so it is easy on the mouth and you can swallow whole.
I also enjoyed the shiitake mushrooms they added in as the chewiness is always welcomed in banquets. They also give you the fried crackers that you see in local congee stalls and that really took me back to my childhood which made me happy 😅.
Sadly, I couldn’t get any fish maw in any of my bites 😕.

💬 Overall, highly recommend trying out there noodle dishes here, the snake banquet is also worth trying if you are a fan. I was really disappointed when all their rice dishes were unavailable and so were the spring rolls which is pretty awkward considering they already don’t have much on the menu.
They also only have 2 vegetable options and both were delicious by itself but paired with unnecessary meats. This place is good for a noodle lunch but definitely not if you are having a family gathering where you order a lot of dishes.
Also the tea price is $10 pp but the tea is good and quite intense throughout the whole meal.
