As a BBC it is strange that I like Hokkien food.Currently there are less than three Hokkien restaurants in Hong Kong.Putien is different because it is modernized with lovely decor and a comfortable environment.Compared to the ones I have tried, the food at Putien is not as salty and I appreciate that the Menu has English because the original restaurant is from Singapore.The menu has pictures as well which is helpful to those who are not familiar with Hokkien Cuisine.At the other Hokkien restaura
Currently there are less than three Hokkien restaurants in Hong Kong.
Putien is different because it is modernized with lovely decor and a comfortable environment.
Compared to the ones I have tried, the food at Putien is not as salty and I appreciate that the Menu has English because the original restaurant is from Singapore.
The menu has pictures as well which is helpful to those who are not familiar with Hokkien Cuisine.
At the other Hokkien restaurants, it was just Chinese on the menu so I ended up ordering stuff that looked good on the reviews.
At every table, there is a pot of homemade chili sauce.
I tried it and loved it because the sauce was exciting and tasted exactly like my favourite sauce at PFC in the UK.
(While stocks last)
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Infusion by Mr. Qu
A mixture of soursop juice, plums, pineapples and green vegetables.
In UK we call them Custard apples which are commonly found in Indian groceries.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chilled worm jelly:
Tried them here and the worms were chewy just like whelk meat and not soft as I expected.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Iced Bittergourd:
Each slice was ultra thin so when you bite into it, the bitterness is not that concentrated and it gives it a lovely refreshing crunch with icy cold bittermelon juice oozing out.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
***Deep Fried Bamboo Clams:
Tangy clam meat deep fried to golden crispiness.
There is a wide selection of bamboo clams dishes on the menu that are well hidden because they are on the folded page of the cover.
Although this was one of my favourites, the salt and pepper bamboo clams would be a good pick too.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
***Drunken Cockles:
Cockles drizzled with a specialty blend of garlic sauce, then topped with generous servings of garlic flakes and chillies.
The cockles were clean because I did not have any unpleasant effects the next day.
WILL CERTAINLY ORDER THIS AGAIN.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
**Seaweed with Mini Shrimps:
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
PUTIEN Style Century Egg
Century egg covered in a sweet and sour crust, topped with homemade specialty sauce.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Homemade Bean Curd
Daily fresh made smooth egg bean curd stir-fried together with mushroom, carrot and sugar snap peas.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
***Stir-fried Yam
Cubes of golden crispy Yams with caramelised crunchy exterior over light fluffiness within.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
***Bamboo herbal prawns
Sweet live prawns with light nourishing chinese herbs such as, angelica root and chinese wolfberries infused in chinese wine.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Deep Fried Tenggiri Fish
Deep fried till crispy, the fish is moist on the inside and golden brown on the outside. Served with our homemade dip.

Deep Fried Pig’s Trotters with Salt & Pepper

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
PUTIEN Sweet & Sour Pork with Lychees
Deep fried to light golden brown, the meat is tender and moist on the inside. The lychee adds a burst of sweetness to the sauce.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
PUTIEN Bian Rou Soup with Vinegar
Delectable PUTIEN signature pork dumplings in a light vinegar-infused soup.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Fried Heng Hwa Bee Hoon
Heng Hwa Bee Hoon is made from old rice milled by hand in Putian. The bee hoon is translucent, silky, fine, chewy but not brittle. The flavour of the bee hoon comes from the rich, milky stock of pork bones and old hens cooked for hours at heat. Infused with 10 ingredients, this dish is one of our crowd favourites.
After adding chili sauce to it, the noodles were even more appetizing that I end up eating two bowls.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
DESSERTS:
Here were the desserts we had, my favourites were the sweet potato balls because they were crispy and fluffy inside.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Purple Sweet Potato with Pumpkin Cream
Chilled Putian Loquat in Herbal Jelly
Hot Yam Paste with Ginko Nuts
Putien rice cake
Sweet potato balls
Golden rice cake
Green bean glutinous rice cake
On our way out, we bumped into this local celebrity who dined there two nights in a row according got to the restaurant.
She also sent a bouquet of flowers as well.
