This restaurant specialized in Shandong cuisine, and had been awarded Bib Gourmand of the Michelin Guide 2018. Originally I came here a couple of days ago but found that the restaurant closed on Wednesday so ensure that you take attention to that. The decor and environment is simple and no-frill, with us having to sit on the same side of a cafe table, so it was not too comfortable. We ordered the signature Shandong Grilled Chicken to start. Unlike the same dish I had in other restaurants, there
The decor and environment is simple and no-frill, with us having to sit on the same side of a cafe table, so it was not too comfortable. We ordered the signature Shandong Grilled Chicken to start. Unlike the same dish I had in other restaurants, there was more spice on the marinating sauce, making it more interesting but I still prefer the 'common' style more.
We tried three different types of dumplings. The first was a Noodle with Cabbage and Meat Dumplings. The dumplings were tasty, with the dough skin of the right thickness and texture, and juicy inside. The cabbage were chopped so finely that you would not find its trace in the dumplings too. A nice start.
The second type of dumplings was Spanish Mackerel Dumplings. A new twist by the restaurant, these dumplings were made from the fish meat with coriander. It is nice, but personally I prefer the traditional cabbage and meat better.
The third one was Tsingdao Squid Dumplings. The skin is also black in colour having added the squid ink into the dough. Again something innovative but I still prefer the traditional cabbage and meat.
Concluding the meal we had the Crispy Melted Sugar Apple. I haven't eaten this dessert for a long while, as it took a lot of effort to prepare and most restaurants now don't want to put this on their menu. The apple was not sour enough, but the melted sugar coating was quite good, crispy to the bite.
With a bottle of soy milk the total bill on the night was $262, and the price was in my opinion quite reasonable. Overall the restaurant is quite good, but maybe a bit overrated if I have to consider the Michelin guide recommendation...
