Double Boiled Bird's Nest Soup 4.5/5

Our dinner started with bowl of Double Boiled Bird's Nest Soup that comes with other luxurious ingredients such as the Fish Maw, Chicken and American Ginseng. The comforting bowl of soup is well flavoured from the essence of the ingredients, extracted over long hours of cooking.

Next we tried the Sauteed Scallop stuffed with Prawn Paste and served with Dried Oyster and Broccoli. A classic dish coated with the aromatic smokiness.

Deep Fried stuffed Chicken with Prawn Paste and served with Mango 4/5

The Deep Fried stuffed Chicken with Prawn Paste is a rather unique combination for my palate. It is further served with mango for a sweet and refreshing touch. Overall it turned out pretty delectable.

Ee Fu Noodles with Crabmeat and Crab Roe Soup 3/5

I was a bit disappointed with the Ee Fu Noodles with Crabmeat and Crab Roe Soup. I looks very appetizing with the orange broth from the crab roe but it lacked the soup base was rather bland and it lacked the robustness to be a good noodle dish. The texture of the noodle is commendable though.

Double Boiled Snow Lotus Seed with Red Date 4/5 and Green Tea Nian Gao 4.5/5

Wrapping out the dinner, we had the Double Boiled Snow Lotus Seed with Red Date and Green Tea Nian Gao. I was somewhat surprised with the green tea infused Niao Gao coated with a thin layer of egg. The texture is almost like having mochi, soft and slightly chewy.

Note: This is an invited tasting.
