And now, the FOOD!
 |
| The pork with mashed garlic 蒜泥白肉 was rather amazing. Haven't had this dish for a while, most of us were deceived by the look of the mashed garlic which looked as tame as mashed potatoes. As a result, most of us were taken by surprise on the first bit. The garlic was deadly!!! It tasted much better subsequently once we were mentally prepared for it. |
 |
| The spicy chicken 口水雞 was acceptable. No surprises there. |
 |
| The green chili pepper with century egg 青椒溏心皮蛋 was excellent. The century egg yolks were suitably runny 溏心. |
 |
| The dumpling 紅油抄手 very tasty. Sweet and not too spicy. |
 |
| Next came a herbal fish soup 天麻魚頭湯 which was very very delicious and a welcome break from all the spiciness. These were the ingredients of the soup, the 湯渣. |
 |
| The 干煸四季豆 was nicely done with mince meat and pickle veggies. Not oily. |
 |
| The smoked duck 煙燻樟茶鴨 was very fragrant - can smell the smoke before taking the bite. A little too salty for me. |
 |
| I like this one 回鍋肉 a lot. Seemed like a lot of fatty pork from here but didn't taste fatty at all (if that was at all possible!). We also ordered a 粉蒸排骨 (the one we had at another restaurant the last time was terrible, so we wanted a second try) but the waiter forgot to put down the order. Bummer! |
 |
| 川麻豆腦桂魚 This was the most amazing dish of the night. Tofu and spicy fish came separately. |
 |
| Mixed together and eat. Amazingly good! The spiciness of the fish totally complement the silky smooth tofu. |
 |
| Although already filled to the brim with excellent food, cannot resist the dessert 流沙包. |
 |
| Just look at the runny yolk filling.....soooo good! |
G also had a almond tea which he thought was pretty good.
