Social Place has opened their first branch in Shatin district on the 18th Jan, and we decided to come here for our early reunion dinner for CNY! We happened to be the first who came in on that day.Food are great as other branches, but they took ages to come!!! Especially the fish that took more than 1 hour to be prepared!! The most annoying part would be other people who came and ordered after us had got the fish and same dishes before us!!! Anyway... here it comes the food that we ordered! The
Food are great as other branches, but they took ages to come!!! Especially the fish that took more than 1 hour to be prepared!! The most annoying part would be other people who came and ordered after us had got the fish and same dishes before us!!!
Anyway... here it comes the food that we ordered! The Signature Roasted White King Pigeon (HKD 33) was so good that I couldn't avoid having a quarter of it!! The skin was crunchy and the meat was very tender!
Another favourite of mine would be their Flaming Pie (HKD 119). It is stuffed with pineapples and curry beef. The flame wasn't as obvious as the one that I had in their Central branch though. In terms of the beef, they were quite generous, as they came in large pieces.
Stir-fried Baby Broccoli (HKD 79) was really fresh, but the portion was too small. Was expecting the portion to be doubled.
The Spicy Whole Fish (HKD 199) was not spicy at all, but it gave you a numbness + tingly feeling on your tongue instead. I don't think it is amazing at all though. Was expecting something impressive, if you had to wait for more than an hour to get this ready.
Last but not least, desserts!! We pick a Piggy Caramel Pudding, Snowy Durian Cake, and Passion Fruit Pudding as the dessert platter for HKD 79. Personally I think it is a pretty good deal! I don't eat durian myself, but the Snowy Durian Cake wasnt too bad, the skin was very thin with a lot of mouse stuffed in it. The Piggy Pudding and the Passion Fruit Pudding both have a very strong flavoured of coconut and passion fruits!
Given it is the 5th year anniversary of Social Place. For every HKD 400 spent, the staff would give you a token to win a selection of prize. You can present your prize to the staff in your next visit for a selected dim sum for free!
... and I won this! So... we won Charcoal Custard Buns (HKD 49) for free in the next visit!! We made a lunch booking for next week just for that. Lol!
Best to book in advance. It's gonna be a long wait as you see!
I overheard the table next us mentioned that "there are plenty of seats here, why we need to wait for so long", it which is so true. Lol!!! Saw these 3 empty tables as we stepped out.
The only difference in the Shatin branch would be they sell other products near the entrance too!
