To celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, I planned to treat him to a very nice dinner with a little birthday surprise. I had him to choose either having Chinese or Western food, and obviously he chose Chinese. I selected this restaurant because it caught my eye when we visit Tai Kwun in Dec 2018 and my colleague strongly recommend it to me after he had dinner here in Jan 2019.We ordered 4 dishes in à la carte although the tasting menu ($688 per person) looks SUPER attractive. HAHA… as both of us do

To celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, I planned to treat him to a very nice dinner with a little birthday surprise. I had him to choose either having Chinese or Western food, and obviously he chose Chinese.

I selected this restaurant because it caught my eye when we visit Tai Kwun in Dec 2018 and my colleague strongly recommend it to me after he had dinner here in Jan 2019.

We ordered 4 dishes in à la carte although the tasting menu ($688 per person) looks SUPER attractive. HAHA… as both of us don’t think that we could finish the whole set menu.

1)
Crispy aubergine with Sakura shrimps & green string beans 魚香脆茄子 ($138)

I love this dish! But I do prefer enjoying it with steam rice. Regretfully, I didn't see it on the menu...HAHA

2)
BBQ pork loin glazed with New Zealand Manuka honey 殿堂叉燒 ($248)

VERY SOFT

Full of surprise!

3)
Sweet& sour Iberico pork with dragon fruit & caramelised cashews陳醋咕嚕肉 ($208)

Sweet& sour Iberico pork with dragon fruit & caramelised cashews陳醋咕嚕肉

I love sweet & sour pork and I love this dish sooooooo much! Pretty presentation, not too sour, interesting food texture! Taste fabulous though it smells so sour. I think that's the power of mature vinegar.

4)
Golden seafood fried rice & salted duck yolk 金沙海鲜炒飯 ($188)

Our first try to use plate instead of small bowl to enjoy fried rice LOL

5)
Green tea cannelloni with sweet red bean綠茶紅豆脆網卷 ($68)

We just ordered a dessert for 1 as we are both full yet I would like to give him a surprise. Since I remarked it will be a birthday celebration dinner when I book the table, they helped me to write a big "Happy Birthday" on the dessert plate

Sonia delivered the dessert and a manager passed a birthday card to us on behalf of the restaurant and the Aqua group. They also took a photo for us, printed it out and framed.

To highlight, Sonia is a star in this restaurant! She introduced every dishes to us and took good care of us.

I would love to try the Peking duck and the lamb that Sonia recommended for my next visit! Thank you The Chinese Library! Thank you Aqua! And special thanks to Sonia, who made our dining experience so memorable!
