Wanted to go beering but decided we can try some bites at this place which we’ve walked past multiple times and found the menu quite interesting. Unfortunately, service turned out to be better than the food.
Just for a sampling of their bites:
Minced shrimp and water chestnut balls 金钱虾饼 ($9.90) - this was supposed to be one of their ‘star’ items but sadly it was far from wow. 3 coin-shaped balls of shrimp meat which tasted more like fish cake, with too finely-minced chestnut which resulted in the lack of crunch, plus some sporadic bits of green spring onions. A lackluster dish troubled by the slightly too oily batter too.
Jellyfish Salad 凉拌海蜇 ($6.90) – thicker / broader than usual slices of jellyfish tossed in some fragrant oil dressing (not sure if its sesame) and mixed with some chilli and cucumber silvers. Not enough kick in the dressing which made it very bland; we had to add some soya sauce and chilli padi in order for us to finish it.
Seafood Soup 海鲜羹 ($6.90) – This was the only good dish of the evening, with it being very similar to the usual Sour Spicy soup but minus the spiciness. Served hot and tasted like a real broth with just the right amount of starch, with an good amount of fish slices, squid, and 1 prawn.
I didn’t feel the total of $28 for 2pax was worth it, although service and the deco etc was okay. Not sure if I will return to try their other stuff though.
