my favourite chinese restaurant thats not on any fine dining list, nor do they care to be.
located on the 25th floor of the Andaz Hotel, 5 on 25 isnt like your typical chinese restaurant in that it doesnt have a chinese name. interior feels contemporary, and are the minimalist plateware the dishes are plated on. i love the view here and how peaceful this restaurant feels. i visit whenever i need a hit of comfort in a safe space.
everyone ive introduced this restaurant to were shocked its not packed to the gills with diners. selfishly i had hoped it’ll stay this way. but i dont wish to gatekeep good food anymore.
my favourite comfort staples at 5 on 25: lobster paofan, tea smoked roast duck, HK kailan.
this time round i was introduced to the sunday dim sum lunch set.. at $68 per pax. we got a FEAST of 1 soup (per pax), 5 dim sum baskets (for the table), 2 main dishes (for the table), 1 carb (to share) and dessert (per pax).
we ordered: chicken soup, abalone glutinous rice in lotus leaf, deep fried lobster rolls, siew mai, black pepper duck buns, mushroom dumplings, sweet sour pork, salt pepper squid, seafood fried rice, and for dessert mango sago.
SO SATISFYING and super great value. pay by Kris+ and earn 10 miles per dollar you pay on ur bill.
big love to my favouritest server Theresa for always anticipating our needs.
