Have known this place from "1949 The Hidden City" in beijin, yet never been to this one.
After my first visit 3 months ago, I had a chance to come here again smile
The service is good, nice decor, great ambience with the view. Moreover, the food is excellent!
茶葉燻蛋: It was an amazing experience. The flavor of tea leaves was amazing but somehow I felt this time the flavor is very weak.. is something wrong with my palate? or I have just lost the amazing feel from the first time.
Anyway, thick egg york was great.
花雕醉雞: Very refreshing and appetizing. As a 紹興酒 lover, can not resist ordering this in any Shanghainese restaurants. It is an excellent combination of its light and elegant taste/fravor of 紹興酒.
稻草紮肉: The sauce was a bit too rich for my taste but it looked cute with a garnished tiny bun.
小籠包: I love it. Will definitely order this again next time.
乾煸鮮筍四季豆: It was good, average.
香米布甸伴茉莉茶雪糕: As great as I expected. Personaly I don't like caramerised part of the pudding but this one was very lightly tasted and inside has got soft rice bits which gives a nice texture in a mouth. There were some crispy rice bits as toppings as well which I did'n like much.
豆沙窩餅: OK
In additon, Pekin Duck was OK. Haven't tried anything beyond the original ones in beijin.
The two desserts in the photo were Tiramisu and...(sorry, I forgot the name) I think that was Tofu something, maybe.
Tiramisu is one of my top 3 favorite desserts and this one seemed very fusion compare to the original. Surprisingly tasted great! Never had such cooling tiramisu with a touch of delicate asian fravor. Definitely works for the end of the meal.
