Xi Yan is one of those restaurants around work that delivers consistent food with a nice and clean environment. It also helps that there are many seats available as they have multiple stories, so it's a safe choice to battle the hectic lunch crowd sometimes. I came here for lunch with a coworker, and we were seated on the ground floor.The lunch menu ranged on average $80 with one main dish and a free soup or drink.

The lunch menu ranged on average $80 with one main dish and a free soup or drink.
Honey Kumquat - I chose the honey kumquat as my free drink with the meal. The kumquat wasn't really strong so the whole drink just tasted a bit strange. It was like drinking watery kumquat without the tangy or sweet taste that I was accustomed to.
Zhenjiang Spareribs with Rice ($80) - the spareribs were tender and fatty with a nice coat of tangy marinade. They were sweet and tart at the same time. For the price, the portions were a bit tiny though.
Double Boiled Duck Rice in Prime Stock ($82) - I think we ordered this dish thinking it will be healthier, but the duck was really lean and flavorless. It was also really hard to eat as the duck was given to us in a big piece without any knife or fork. Even after asking for a knife, it was still hard to cut it in the bowl. The stock was alright and a bit oily. Nothing special there.
To be honest, the food is not really spectacular here but just a safe choice for lunch due to the lack of choices in this area.
