We ordered the Wagyu Beef Lunch Tasting Menu (HK$1000) and it was on discount on weekdays. Perfect!



The 9-course tasting menu starts off with “Taste of Marriage”, which are little appetizers in 5 different flavors - Sweet, Sour, Bitter, Spicy, Salty 甜酸苦辣 to signify what you will go through in a marriage
What a fun, fascinating and creative concept to incorporate the Chinese traditions to your tastebuds!!

For appetizers, the set menu also includes their signature Molecular  X-trend  “Xiao  Long  Bao”
This is a must try!
I still remember I had this for dinner many years ago! Look how delicate it looks before the flavors burst in your mouth 💥

The next courses are “Son of a Scallop” , “Pieces Paradise” and “Rich Abalone” . All the dishes look so beautiful yet also tasty on the palate
Clearly many Chinese ingredients are used here with a twist. My favorite dish is “Rich Abalone” - which is poached abalone with caviar 20g and mung bean.

The other course “Yin Yeung” , egg yolk with black truffle, is also delicious
Very rich and heavy in flavors.

However, the main course “Wagyu Beef” is decent but not to my liking. Maybe it’s the dense black pepper sauce or the chewy texture of the meat, I didn’t enjoy it throughly.


Also, “No Shark Fins”, faux shark fins in rock sugar syrup 冰糖, is not my cup of tea either as I don’t normally fancy this type of Chinese dessert. Just my personal preference. I am sure many others like this course.

Then it’s “Comes after Sex” , which is a can of baby food! Just kidding….it’s a can of foam with crispy crumbs in Braised Pork in Preserved Vegetables flavors. It was very unique! Must try
Interesting name too!
This is the other signature dish I’ve had many years ago except it was in a different flavor.

Lastly, the final dessert “V generation” is composed of diced apple and chestnut mousse in ginger vinegar 姜醋 to complete the journey.

After many years, I must say I am still fascinated with this place
As their menu changes quite regularly, the new menu really caught me by surprise. In fact, I think the whole journey was elevated by the entire Chinese Marriage theme. Beginning from courses relating to wedding traditions to Chinese banquet and then ending with baby food and the classic Chinese dish after giving birth. What a delightful and inspired story and experience!!
Definitely recommend it for everyone to try at least once, especially for tourists to enrich their Chinese culture through fine food! 👌🏻💫


The only small matter is I feel that their staff is not very genuinely friendly or attentive. Their service is ok and they will explain the menu and every course to you, but that’s about it. You would expect more enthusiasm and care from a 2-Michelin. Perhaps that’s why they lost a ⭐️ ?


Lunch: HK$ 1000 per person
