I've been here for dinner before but never for lunch so came here with a friend and between the 2 of us we ordered:Kurobuta Pork, Crab & Caviar, Shanghainese Soup Dumplings ($95 for 4) - there was not enough soup for a xiao lung bao while the crab and caviar flavors never came through. An average dish at best especially for the price.Kurobuta Pork, Soft Quail Egg, Black Truffle ($60 for 2) - the smell of truffle was strong and it was interesting to bite into a quail egg in the middle of the siu

Kurobuta Pork, Soft Quail Egg, Black Truffle ($60 for 2) - the smell of truffle was strong and it was interesting to bite into a quail egg in the middle of the siu mai but flavor-wise it didn't really come together for me.
Prawn, Crispy Rice Paper ($80) - this was one of the better dishes we had as the crispy rice paper was deliciously crunchy to eat with the fresh prawns.
Signature Crispy Sugar Coated BBQ Spanish Tervel Pork Bun ($60 for 3) - I love the crispy top of the bun while the BBQ pork fillings were delicious as well but I can't help but compare this to Tim Ho Wan's which only cost $18 for 3 and was just as good.
With just 4 dishes, the tab came out to almost $200 per person and we were still only half full. I wouldn't mind the high prices if the quality can justify it but we didn't find this to be the case.
