A luxurious 5 course meal consisted of Shanghainese Dumplings with Lobster Filling, Spice Salted Lobster Head and Claws, Lobster Meat with Ginger & Spring Onion, Fried La Mian with Lobster Tail and Double boiled Longan with Snow Fungus.
Shanghainese Dumplings with Lobster Filling
It’s Xiao Long Bao which never ceases to please me! Thin and translucent skin encasing the warm savory broth moistening the patty of minced lobster meat. The natural sweetness from the king of crustacean conquered my palate and sent my brain into “food orgasm”!
Lobster Meat with Ginger & Spring Onion
Chunks of succulent lobster meat was lightly stir fried with lots of gingers & spring onions, the flavor was mild and showcased the sweetness from the lobster itself. I always has impression that lobster meat is tough and coarse but this definitely not, the juicy and tender meat was so delectable and I can’t resist to have a few helpings 😛
Spice Salted Lobster Head and Claws
The head and claws are not wasted too, prepared with moreish spice salted style and I saw everyone licking the shell clean :p
Fried La Mian with Lobster Tail
Although the lobster meat was the main actor here but the La Mian (Hand Pulled Noodle) as co-actor definitely manage to steal the limelight! The al-dente texture noodles were well absorbed the soy sauce flavor, make every strand was slurpilicious!
Double boiled Longan with Snow Fungus
I felt so refreshing and nourished by just looking at the brimming ingredients!

Glutinous Rice Dumpling with Sliced Abalone
Soft and flavorful from the ingredients, all is truly unique and features its own flavors and textures harmonically! Being told by Master Chef Li a new method to savor this dumpling by dipping it with SUGAR! We were skeptical just like you but try it, definitely gave a new dimension to the traditional way to savor a dumpling!

Doubled Boiled Lean Pork Meat Soup with Conch Meat
Clear broth full of flavor from the sea contributed by the conch meat.
Japanese Cucumber with Garlic
Crunchy cucumber served cold drenched in garlicky sauce, indeed a good appetizer to open up the palate.
Crispy Beancurd Skin Roll with Mushroom
A merely ordinary dish.
Honey Glazed Eel
Slivers of eel were deep fried and evenly coated with honey sauce, crunchy and addictive, on sampling just one piece you will get your tempo going on and will not lay down your chopsticks 🙂
