Iced Lemon Tea:
The first sip was a refreshing burst of tangy lemon, expertly balanced by just the right amount of sweetness. The tea was perfectly steeped, imparting a robust flavor without any hint of bitterness. Served over ice, it was the ultimate respite on a sweltering day. What truly impressed me was the attention to detail - a delicate lemon slice and a sprig of mint adorned the glass, elevating the beverage from mere refreshment to a visual delight.
Old Fire Bath:
The bite-sized portions of marinated meat were served on skewers, accompanied by a selection of dipping sauces. The meat boasted a charred exterior, hinting at the bold flavors within. With every bite, a delightful explosion of spices danced on my palate, a symphony of sweet, savory, and smoky notes. The textures ranged from tender to slightly crispy, contributing to a satisfyingly complex mouthfeel. The Old Fire Bath was not only a flavorful prelude but also an homage to the art of grilling perfected over generations.
Braised Rice with Shredded Fire Duck.:
The tender shredded duck rested atop a bed of fluffy, fragrant jasmine rice, which had absorbed the essence of the braising liquid. The sauce that enveloped the duck was a symphony of flavors - a harmonious blend of soy, ginger, and subtle heat. Each forkful was a delightful journey through layers of taste and texture. The duck melted in the mouth, offering an irresistible combination of tenderness and robust flavor. This dish was a true masterpiece, a testament to the culinary finesse that Hung-To Café prides itself on.
