金銀蛋浸莧菜($65)
很多蛋白,但皮蛋粒和咸蛋黃卻很少。嫩嫩的莧菜浸泡在上湯,味道適中,不會過咸或過淡。八珍扒大鴨半隻($98)
與八珍炒麵的用料不同。計有鮮魷,冇味蝦仁,海參,香滑鳳片,叉燒,泡油春蛋,吸收濃汁的魚肚,薄片帶子各兩件,一開二小棠菜四棵,當然吾少得半隻燜過龍的鴨。筷子一挾,皮,肉和骨很容易分開,味道和肉質就像我兒時吃的罐頭紅燒排骨一樣。德國咸豬手($98)
賣相吸引的咸豬手熱辣辣上枱,店員用刀叉把約六吋長的豬手骨肉分離。怕吃了脆卜卜的皮會上火,可沾少許附上的南乳醬,油膩和熱氣感盡消。豬手的肉與超市檔口賣的豬手味道一樣咸香,很嫩滑。

每一年中秋，無論如何我都一定會吃些月餅應節，其中陪伴我大部份中秋時光的，必定是美心雙黃蓮蓉月。今年有點例外，捨傳統而取奶黃和冰皮，新意感大增，味道也不錯。美心在冰皮市場算是遲起步，可能知恥近乎勇，投放的心力研究卻不少，今年的冰皮月餅，相比起往年，餅皮更煙韌，也更為好吃，據說，是多年研發成果的收成。今年吃到的冰皮，是仲夏水果系列，以雙水果味道作賣點，共有四款味道，分別是粉紅番石榴杏脯、藍莓二重奏、士多啤梨、熱情果柚子，每款兩個。仲夏水果系列，中間的是水果果蓉，選取的都是夏日當做的水果，在秋意漸涼的日子感受夏日的氣息，讓人感覺很舒服，哈哈。四款之中，個人最喜歡熱情果柚子，熱情果的清新和柚子的酸甜很夾，和冰皮的味道也很匹配，吃了一整個也不會很甜膩，不錯。唯一要挑釁的是中間沒有果蓉的口感，可能是水果種類的問題吧，沒有如士多啤梨那一款的口感。至於士多啤梨和藍莓兩款，在室溫下解凍一會，中間的流心效果做得很不錯，也不會很「藥水」的味道，喜歡流心的朋友可以試試。最後是粉紅番石榴杏脯，最沒期望的一款反而有點驚喜，緣於個人很怕太甜的杏脯，但用杏脯做成的冰皮卻沒有太甜感覺，也是以清新為主，很特別。

總括而言，美心冰皮的餅皮的確是改進了，口感煙韌更佳，但除了熱情果柚子的流心問題外，另外三款雖然流心，但餅底卻看到明顯的冷縮熱脹做成的凹陷，雖然不會影響味道，也希望明年能有更改良的版本吧。吃過冰皮，是時候試試我喜歡的奶黃月。今年的美心尊貴奶黃月餅包裝很高貴，用來送禮，對方應該很開心吧？和冰皮一樣，奶黃月面上有美心二字，今年包裝上多了一金屬圓圖案，真如名字一樣尊貴了很多。

今年，每一盒尊貴奶黃月裡都有一張問卷咭，客戶可上網頁填妥問卷，可得一份小禮品。奶黃月要熱的才好吃，把它放進微波爐加熱十秒左右，就差不多了。輕輕切開，雖然已經經過微波爐加熱，但切下去的感覺餅皮還是有點過濕過腍。

切開後，中間的奶黃餡偏向黃色，蛋黃味有但不重，甜而不膩，味道還是一貫的美心水準。

冰與火的交融，先吃冰，後嚐火，兩種不同口感味道的月餅，各有特別，也很滿足。今年的美心月餅，我就只差最喜歡的雙黃白蓮蓉還未吃，就留待中秋節才吃吧！

另一半今日OFF~所以齊齊去美心飲茶
幫襯過本區其他酒樓..好似得美心仲係保存舊有特色"推車仔點心"
食物方面..其實一向對美心集團都有信心~因為水準真係高D
同集團係商場樓上果間酒樓~我地都係常客~食物質素同樣高
~~~~~~
今日第一次坐2樓~之前去都無特別開放~可能依家比較多人
不過又唔係太多人鐘意坐2樓~因為無推車仔點心..要剔點心紙
但對我地黎講真係無所謂~反而仲覺得幽靜好多^^我地點個"一盅兩件"
菜乾粥+潮州粉果
粥底比較杰~通常自己都會加少少水中和濃稠度
粥底夠味~料好足..最鐘意食脆脆~伴粥食特別正~香口又唔會炸過火潮州粉果皮層好薄..有一隻薄到穿左~味道正..料足皮層夠煙韌"芋角"傳統酒樓炸點心~今次個味道ma ma..唔夠五香粉
而且味道好淡+無乜料~外層就夠鬆脆"蓮蓉包"美心既包類本身都做得好好~由其中式包包層..好軟綿綿帶彈性又有包味
黃蓮蓉餡好香..唔會好甜~餡料份量剛剛好..不過有蛋黃仲正(以前細個食有架)
煮蓮蓉既時間都掌握得好好~因為試過有d食店既蓮蓉..燶+酸味的整體食物依然有水準~只係個芋角比較失色左

OK, so my wife's parents were visiting and I thought we should take them to Maxim's. Now, I had never been there before, so that was one reason I wanted to go. A second was that I had heard it was good and that it was a good place for tourists. Third, I'm a big fan of both Jade Garden and House of Beijing, two other Maxim's restaurants that have locations in Citywalk. And finally, Maxim's is right by the Sam Tung Uk museum, which is also touristy, if only moderately interesting.

That being said, I didn't find the experience all that satisfying. I can't say that it's Maxim's fault-- but there were language barriers. At other dim sum places (like Jade Garden) you get little paper menus to check off what you want. Maxim's still does the push-cart thing, which is big in the US-- but of course, there's no language issues in the US. Mostly you can just point at things you want, but there were a couple of times where they came by with a cart where you couldn't see anything and they wouldn't show you anything except signs, which were written in Chinese. There were other minor issues too-- I think we got two dishes free, because they forgot to write them down on our card, but I couldn't really explain that to anyone.

From subsequent reading-around, it seems like not all Maxim's are created equal. The one in Central has computerized images of dishes on the trolleys, and English AND Chinese. That's just not true at the Tsuen Wan location. Here's what we got though:

Rice sheet rolls: They were a little crispy from frying, which I liked, but also a little bland-- not much filling.
Sesame balls: Sometimes these have bean paste in them. Not this time
Shrimp dumplings: What can I say? It's a prawn in a dumpling skin.
Fried crab rolls: These were actually great. Unfortunately, they were a little lukewarm.
Shrimp wontons: I like fried things as much as the next person, but there wasn't much going on here.
Cha siu buns: Classic. And tasty.
Siu mei dumplings: Meh.

At the end, I recommend going to Jade Garden instead. Maxim's says they have "over 100 dim sum dishes" but I didn't see much more than 15. The push-cart thing is bothersome if you speak only English, and none of our dishes were as hot and fresh as I would have wanted them.

5月11日一早訂左位食母親節飯,這裏推出一個套餐,好抵,我地就食呢個餐呀! 用信用咭還再有折添呀!

套餐包括:

上湯焗加拿大龍蝦(伊麵底)
龍蝦都算大隻,但係唔夠新鮮,d肉唔夠爽口呀,伊麵都ok

一品燒味拼盤
有雞,鵝,燒肉,叉燒,海浙,冇咩特別,ok唔差的

豉味鳯片翠花枝
翠玉瓜都鮮甜的,有花枝片,雞肉,有些蝦醬味,花枝片都好薄好爽口的

家鄉釀玉環
瑤柱好大粒,醉係節瓜入面,味道幾好,上面有一些生菜作配菜

紅燒銀簪大煲翅
後尾唔係呢個翅,係變左花膠燴雞絲,但都冇同我地講過有呢個轉變,雖然味道都ok,幾多花膠及雞絲的呀!

沖菜欖角蒸海班
呢條唔知咩班,咁樣切開蒸冇咁滑喎,ok啦

珍菌湯泡津白
有些什菌配津白,都鮮甜的,什菌入味,我鍾意食休菌所以good.

原味水晶雞
沒有甚麼特別的蒸雞,雞肉都滑身的,唔知點解叫水晶雞啊.

鳯凰馬蹄露
有些蛋塊,感覺好怪,唔好食啊,有種腥味架.

我地有十四個人,所以驚唔夠食,另外叫左一個福健炒飯,一個雪菜肉絲炆米,但係仕應話如果我地叫散叫既餸要等1小時以上,咁我地咪早d叫囉,但係15分鐘之後就嚟晒啦. 福健炒飯可以啦,都多料,但係雪菜肉絲炆米係碎米,好似食糊仔咁,唔掂啊.

今晚係食母親節飯,所以勁多人,勁忙亂,但係都唔使分兩輪的,我見枱枱都幾乎食呢個套餐,真的係抵食的,份量都係大份的.

5-9-2011(Mon)放工後同男友行o黎呢o度攞公司送o既冰皮七星伴月,返到屋企食完晚飯,我就拎出o黎影相.點知男友見到一個黑色o既覺得好奇,話要試.我話佢知係魔鬼脆脆－黑巧克力脆米,好啦,開o黎食啦.食落,甜度適中,似食凍朱古力,口感軟綿綿,介乎慕絲同朱古力漿之間,呢個口感討好.而唔多o既脆米只係小點綴,其實冇都唔緊要.
味道: 4.5分

2. 抺茶甘栗呢個冰皮已經話畀人知係緑茶,切開睇,好似冇栗子肉,食落,绿茶味淡,但栗子味更淡,食四份一件至食到一粒直徑約5毫米o既硬栗子肉.不過呢個清得o黎唔漏都可以o既.
味道: 3分

3. 藍莓芝士同上次用團購揀o既味道一樣,如果攞餅時知道,真係想問可唔可以換另一隻味.
呢個切開時有啲硬,冇上次咁黐刀,所以切開出o黎係整齊啲.而今之味道好似濃啲,好味啲.
味道: 5分

上次食美心冰皮月餅o既食評: http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/commentdetail.htm?commentid=2190470

4. 芒果脆脆為o氹甜品中只喜愛芒果o既爸爸食冰皮月餅,所以開呢個,亦好期待.切開睇,好失望,芒果醬得好少,食落,我好似食唔到芒果味,只食到啡色餅皮o既可可味,裡面o既所謂脆脆都唔脆,有冇攪錯?
最離譜o既係遲o黎o既男友拎o黎食後,都唔知自己食o左咩味,話食到朱古力味.我睇返罐底寫o既成份,話有綠豆蓉,即係o個啲青青地色o既係綠豆蓉啦,我亦都食唔出.
味道: 0.5分

5. 楊枝甘露之前o個個咁失望,就唔敢對呢個有期望喇.切開睇,餡好似多啲,食落,呢個味道對版啲,都食到有西柚肉.
味道: 3分

6. 12-9-2011(Mon)中秋節正日,男友,我同爸爸食完豐富晚飯後,都要應吓節,攞個燕窩緑豆冰皮月餅食.切開三份睇睇,係有類似燕窩o既餡,同樣係唔多,食落,緑豆蓉o既’香’味蓋過一切.而燕窩,口感係一pat pat漿住咁,算吧啦,係咁o架喇.
味道: 3分

7. 休息幾日唔食住,到16-9-2011(Fri)晚,男友o黎食飯,食完飯就話要食冰皮月餅,佢揀o左天使白朱古力脆脆o黎開,切開睇,個樣麻麻地,未食時估佢會好甜,但食落,冇朱古力味o既?o個啲咩o野脆脆都係冇朱古力味,成個就只有白豆蓉味,名不副實.
味道: 1分

8. 奶黃18-9-2011(Sun)晚,食埋最後呢個.切開睇,全個奶黃餡,食喇.好味喎,錎夠香夠味.好正常.呢個係咁多中最好食o既.下年我要買返奶黃月餅食先.(鴻星除外.)
味道: 5分

一向對美心中菜的印象唔差，也不介意食店方預先設定的套餐，這晚就吃了圓桌歡聚宴。

大概是套餐關係，餸菜好快送上。衝頭的有冬瓜盅，材料有冬瓜、雞肉、夜香花、蝦仔、甚至蓮子，蠻豐富的。各樣料的味道對辦，湯水清甜，喝兩大碗，是消暑的好方法。

喝湯後，就是上湯焗龍蝦，加伊麵底。麵條幾爽口，龍蝦則是加拿大產地，都幾多肉的，只是肉質稍稍韌了少少。

接著的茶樹菇炒腐皮，菇是香口又夠爽，韭菜花同樣香氣撲鼻，沒有渣，腐皮微脆，裡頭更有馬蹄粒，增添了層次感；貴妃花枝圓，特別之處是醬汁，大概是蜜糖芥末醬，跟爽彈的花枝丸很合拍。

吃套餐，總有些懶名貴的菜色，繼剛才的龍蝦伊麵，現在又來個鮮鮑扣花菇。鮮鮑細細隻，扣得不算入味，勝在稔身之餘，仍保持一定咬口。花菇就厚身爽口，菜吸了鮑汁味，亦好吃。

魚最大路是蒸，不過今次又另一個玩法，是起肉浸湯。桂花魚一如以往的嫩滑，只是魚味就無咩，跟預期的完全一樣。反而湯是幾清甜，勝瓜也合我口胃，偶爾試試另類做法，未嚐不可。

再來的鹽香雞，出來是幾香，肉質尚且不嚡口，不能挑剔太多了。客家蒸芥膽，其實就是用上甜甜的梅菜去蒸，但我幾喜歡芥菜的口感。

鮑汁荷葉飯確實散出陣陣荷香，不過我嫌個飯太濕，麻麻。至於甜品，是海底椰銀耳露，清潤又不太甜，做對了。

半席的套餐，用獅子銀行信用卡有折，埋單九百有找，抵到爛！

晚上九點到達，只是等兩三分鐘就有位。不過很多普通餸菜都無。唐生菜無，通菜無，燒鵝無，炸生蠔無。其實上次年初四晚上也是這樣，只有特定餐牌，但中央的主打餸晚上七點也是無，請管理人員注意！

Siu mei deluxe

The quality is not very large and the contents are: chicken, duck, jelly fish and cha siu

Chickenit’s a bit 梅, no chicken taste, not a fresh chicken, may b a frozen one and it’s quite fat coz the skin is thick…

duck quite thin, the skin is crispy and when dip with some sour source it’s quite good

jelly fish it’s spongy and 爽, quite spicy, and they put some seasame on the top~

cha siu quite sweet with bbq sauce, it’s half fat half thin it’s good, and it’s still juicy too~

vegetable with mushroom a lot of bak choi there! And they washed very clean which has no sand. The vegetable is sweet and fresh also, they give lots of mushrooms too~

呢日放假, 同屋企人去綠楊美心皇宮飲茶
以美心皇宮0黎講, 佢都係比較細的一間, 不過水準不俗

食物方面
整體都好對板, 聽講美心個總廚stay左係呢間
所以食物有保證 (消息未經證實!!)
本人會推介燒腩仔, 真係燒得好出息
皮脆肉軟, 個mustard都好好味
另外, 福建炒飯都非常有水準
個飯炒得夠乾身, 加上味道, 濃度適中的sauce 剛剛好!!!

環境方面
樓底真係好高, 不過地方唔係大, 所以怪怪的
唔算太迫, 可以接受
Overall都算幾乾淨

服務方面
都幾好, 部長好有禮貌, 值得加分!!

總結
各方面都有唔錯的表現, 價錢都合理
值得推介!
