Dim Sum Brunch Buffet

17April21

*One serving. Very interesting and well executed clear fish maw soup.*

*One Serving but it lacked luster thou. Salted egg wasn't really present, lacked seasoning but the plus side of it was that it came along with a hassle free de-shelled claw.*
*The wasabi prawns lacked luster/ Though plump and very well fried with a light batter, it lacked seasoning. As did the tender beef which lacked in seasoning. Scallops and roast pork(A little disappointing),
have had better in other places. Average.*

*The fish are absolutely standout greats! Mostly fat chunks of bone free fish! Some of the best, premium fish dishes had and each were distinctively different and delectable. A must order for sure!*

*Mostly to a good standard. The specialty ones like the Foie Gras (green) and truffle mushroom dim sum lacked and distinct flavors weren't prominent in the dishes at all. A little disappointing. The rest were to a good standard.*
*The standout here was the grated yam and pumpkin dish. Really sweet, good textures and layers of flavors. The smaller appetizers were welcoming as well.*
*Vinegar pork trotter was little different from what we were used to. Thou the ginger bits were nice, the vinegar wasn't as thick or strong in flavor. It had more of a floral accent to it.*
 
*The dessert all fantastic. The fried noodles was exceptionally well executed. Quality a class above Zhi Cha level!* 

*Both excellent. Mango Pomelo was well executed. The aloe vera jelly was particularly aromatic which did add some freshness and dimension to the dish.*

Complimentary for Birthday Celebrations
*So pretty! Purely for decoration*

150SGD/Pax (with taxes) (Kids dined free)
Food 3.5/5

*The fish were really the stars there. Apart from a lack of seasoning on some of the dishes, the rest were pretty good. Would be a strong 4 if all dishes were well seasoned.*
Service 4/5
*Great attention to service. Plates were changed at well spaced intervals. It didn't feel too rushed and was timely. The pace of food was decent and well managed.*
Ambience N/A (Private dining room)
*The sitting capacity from what we saw the max seating capacity of the restaurant looked limited.*
Value 3.5/5
*Though still a little pricey, compared to a coursed meal, the additional charge would grant you access to the full extensive menu to try out all their dishes which makes it worth it.*

Stand out winners were clearly the fish dishes and their soups. Fish were mostly bone free, quality cooks and incredibly enjoyable. Most of the dishes were of good standing, with the exception of a few dishes which were under seasoned.

In general, good quality but not at a level which towers over other places serving similar dishes. Stick to their classic selections, whereas their more unique fusion flavors lacked in delivering that punch. Nice to go for those big celebratory events.
