For a limited time from 22 July to 28 July 2024, Min Jiang Goodwood Park presents an exclusive collaboration featuring Michelin-starred chef couple Sam and Forest Leong alongside Min Jiang and Min Jiang at Dempsey's very own Master Chefs. Themed "Min Jiang Reimagined: An Exquisite Showcase by Four Culinary Masters", this collaboration offers two exclusive set menus for dine-in only at Min Jiang at Goodwood Park Hotel. Here's a closer look at the culinary masterpieces we had the pleasure of experiencing.
Abalone, Sea Cucumber, Wild-caught Eel Maw in Golden Organic Pumpkin Broth 4.8/5
Uni & Jamón Ibérico 4.8/5
We kicked off the dinner with a bowl of golden soup, A Sea of Treasures, by Chef Sam Leong. This dish, featuring Abalone, Sea Cucumber, and Wild-caught Eel Maw in Golden Organic Pumpkin Broth paired with Uni & Jamón Ibérico, was a luxurious delight. The pumpkin broth's collagen-rich consistency, with its natural sweetness, complemented the delicacies excellently. A dollop of red vinegar enhanced the overall experience, adding a tangy depth to the broth.
King Crabmeat in Light Curry Sauce with Seasonal White Asparagus 4/5
Chef Forest Leong brought a touch of Thai influence with The Ocean's Embrace, a dish comprising King Crabmeat in Light Curry Sauce with Seasonal White Asparagus. This dish skillfully merged her Thai heritage with contemporary French elements. The depth and savoury, spicy kick of the king crabmeat curry complemented the springy white asparagus perfectly, making this dish a standout.
Slow-braised ‘Live’ South African Abalone 4/5
Simply executed to highlight the prized ingredient, A Dream So Deep featured South African Abalone slow-braised for two hours in a full-bodied concoction of abalone jus. Paired with lightly fried okra for extra textural contrast, this dish was a sublime testament to the beauty of simplicity in showcasing premium ingredients.
Typhoon Shelter Turbot Fish Fillet and Soft-shell Crab 4.2/5
The Perfect Calm featured Turbot Fish and Soft-shell Crab done in typhoon shelter-style. A fragrant medley of breadcrumbs, scallions, garlic, curry leaf, dried chillies, and dried shrimp, expertly stir-fried to bring out the aromas, added depth and complexity to the dish. Each bite promised a satisfying explosion of textures and flavours, with a hint of spice that left us craving more.
Slow-braised Wagyu Beef Cheek with Japanese Daikon 4.5/5
From the Prairies to Harmony showcased an innovative creation that seamlessly combined traditional Chinese culinary techniques with subtle Japanese flair. The tender Beef Cheek, slow-braised and paired with juicy Japanese Daikon, soaked up the delicate beef broth beautifully, making for a harmonious and flavourful dish.
Barley Pearl Congee with Handmade Shrimp Balls and Dried Scallops 4.2/5
Chef Sam Leong's Smooth as Silk was a silky smooth Congee with celtuce, barley, and handmade shrimp balls cooked in a heady, opaque chicken broth. Topped with crispy dried scallops and served with salted egg salmon skin, this dish offered an irresistible crunch and was a comforting, umami-rich delight.
Crispy Crepes, Meringue and Gold Laced Threads with Assorted Berries Gelato 4/5
We wrapped up the dinner with Chef Forest Leong's dessert creation, Playground in My Mind. This deconstructed version of Khanom Bueang, a traditional Thai street snack, was a visual and culinary treat. Topped with a sprinkle of crumble, fresh strawberries, and blueberries and finished with a scoop of assorted berries ice cream, this dessert was a delightful end to a remarkable dining experience.
