I and my best friend personally Loves foie gras to bits, foie gras is a must order whenever it is listed on the menu at any restaurant we visit. So this time we found out that W Hotel offers a Foie Gras menu at their Cantonese Dining Restaurant Sing Yin, so we brought real high hopes to it and gave the restaurant a try…We ordered the following dishes, x2 per course (for two persons):油泡鮮越南蟹鉗配鵝肝 (每位) Stir-fried Vietnamese crab claw with pan-fried perigord foie gras and spicy rice wine sauce (per p
We ordered the following dishes, x2 per course (for two persons):
油泡鮮越南蟹鉗配鵝肝 (每位) Stir-fried Vietnamese crab claw with pan-fried perigord foie gras and spicy rice wine sauce (per person)$280
黑松露菌焗美國帶子鵝肝 (每位) Baked giant u.s. scallop with rice wine marinated perigord foie gras and black truffle (per person)$168
俄羅斯魚子鵝肝拌炸鳳尾蝦 (每位) Deep-fried prawn and Russian Oscietra caviar with pan-fried perigord foie gras and orange paste (per person) $168
鹽燒美國生蠔伴鵝肝(每位) Wok-fried Virginia oyster with perigord foie gras and star anis (per person) $138
鵝肝鮮蝦餃(每位) Steamed Thailand shrimp and perigord foie gras dumpling (per person) $38
The way they handled the foie gras for each and every one of these dishes were similar, they steam or pan fry it without adding much flavoring to it. Therefore the foie gras would taste rather plain and tough in texture, totally different style from what we use to have at French or Japanese cuisines. It was rather disappointing during this meal for the both of us because we were expecting to have fat and oily pan seared foie gras dishes instead of steamed ones! Also, the foie gras in every dish did not stand out at all, the name of the menu should rather be “Seafood menu” instead since the other ingredients such as shrimp, scallop, caviar, oyster were all even more delicious than the foie gras itself.Even though the flavor of each dish was above average, but the main selling point of this menu was the foie gras therefore I’d rate it according to our satisfaction of how the foie gras was prepared and how it complimented the rest of the ingredients, which in this case failed to surprise us, not even one single dish we ordered were up to our expectations. Maybe Chinese food really isn’t our favorite cuisine after all.
