It's a birthday celebration of an uncle, invited over 30 guests to have a Cantonese home-made dinner. His kids would like to do something different, other than hosting a party in traditional large Chinese restaurant; this private kitchen seems a ideal choice. This should be my first time trying Chinese private kitchenIt's located in TST, quite convenient as it's just opposite to MTR station. However, the building entrance is under renovation and there is no signage, kind of Discrete feeling.Ther

There is no special interior design or decoration, 2 rooms with round table of 12 each, and 2 in the "main area". They have booked 3 tables, and for "younger generation", I was arranged to sit in one of the room with the other younger ones It's the final chapter of a popular TV program, and I felt happy when I saw the TV in the room but found out the connection was not that good later on.
Had been waiting and waiting from 7:30 till 9 to have all guests arrived....was starving as I only had breakfast that day in early morning, followed by non-stop meeting schedules.
Finally, the first dish, black chicken soup was served...within 5 min, it's done! It's good to have Cantonese soup, especially this one, I seldom have chance to make it at home. Following by their signature dish, Shrimp balls and pan-fried shrimps with plum, the shrimp balls were yummy, but the rest were just so-so.
Next one was fried ostrich meat with bell peppers, not bad. Steam scallops with glass noodle tastes fine, kind of standard of most Chinese restaurants. I love this one, sea cucumber, proven to be a natural health food that benefit to our immune system. Steam fish was nicely cooked, we finished all, and the roasted chicken was delicious, although I felt full already. Vegetables, yee fu noodle, which was just so so, the portion was very big; and the star of the night, Birthday Buns, lovely and yummy!
The best thing is, they didn't put a lot salt and MSG, at least for someone whom has MSG allergy didn't feel unwell after the dinner.
It will be better if they can purchase proper wine glasses, make sure the TV connection is good and ready for food boxes, not only plastic bags, as customers usually do take away to avoid wasting food
