Overrated and over-priced. We have pre-ordered our menu for 12 persons. The suckling pig was not crispy. 大良野雞卷was overly marinated with rose wine and all pieces are of different sizes. The Pomelo skin was over cooked and more salty than the baked salted chicken. The fried egg white with crab meat was also heavily salted. So salty that I thought the crab was cooked in sea water. Yet the vegetables with crab meat could only taste the ginger taste. Can tell the chef has used lots of ginger and thus the ginger taste covered the crab meat. The bird nest soup was worst. So salty and, i think, it's heavily seasoned with MSG. My tongue was numbed till next day and I have to drink a coke to balance out. (If you were sensitive in MSG like me then you will understand). On the whole, the appetizers can pass but they failed almost all the mains. The desserts are ok but on the sweet side.
For service, I was quite shocked to be told that they ran out of sesame rolls, which was pre set in our menu, that they had to give us some walnut biscuits. First, how can it be sold out as our menu was set? Second, they offered 6 sesame rolls and 6 walnuts biscuits. Seriously, why couldn't they offer us 12 pieces of walnuts biscuits? As not everyone noticed we only got 6 biscuits, they just crapped one piece of both dishes. At the end, 5 of us needed to share the last biscuits. The whole bill was hkd25000.
For this price, i would expect a better quality of food and higher standard of service. For that service and quality of food, definitely overrated and over-priced.
