For Christmas dinner, grandma took my brother and me to One Harbour Road.  It's been a few years since I've been here, but my brother had accompanied grandma on several previous occasions as grandma has joined Club Hyatt and has been frequenting Grand Hyatt restaurants.

One Harbour Road has its own elevator since the restaurant is on 2 levels of the hotel, and the elevator stops in the middle.  As the elevator opened, the waiter noted our reservation and led us to our seats, which was a 4 top with a sofa on one side and 2 chairs on the other.  The decor was more Western for a Chinese restaurant, which I believe led to the noise level being much lower than other Chinese restaurants.

The place setting was also of Western style, but they are starting to show their age as some of the paintings on the plates have started to fade.

We started with a cold dish.  The chilled marinated pigeon in "Fa Du" rice wine had a strong rice wine aroma, and the pigeon was quite tender.

Then, we each ordered a soup.  I had the Pork leg, bamboo fungus, Chinese mushroom, and bok choy soup.  The soup was very flavorful, and even with the strong flavors from the pork leg and the mushrooms, the broth was still very clear and not greasy.

Next, we each had the baked sea whelk and assorted meat in shell, mild curry sauce.  The sea whelk shell was packed to the brim.  The curry sauce was delicious and paired very well with the sea whelk and minced meat.  The crust was browned to a slight crisp adding a tiny bit of crunch to the texture.

The vegetable dish came before the others.  The dish was listed as wok-fried organic kale, dried halibut in English.  Maybe, that was to make it easier for tourists to understand the name, but the Chinese name was listed as kai lan, so it was definitely not kale.  The kai lan was nice and crunchy, and the dried fish was a nice complement to the kai lan adding an extra layer of flavor.

Then, the fried rice came out.  The minced beef and egg fried rice, black truffles had a distinct black truffles aroma.  However, my brother and I agreed that the fried rice itself is tasty enough on its own, and the black truffles were not necessary.  If you are a black truffles aficionado, then this fried rice would definitely suit you.

The chicken came out next, and I waited until it came out to have my rice.  I wish they had served this before the rice.  The deep-fried chicken fillet and basil, black vinegar sauce was very delicious.  The sauce was sweet and tangy, which made the chicken perfect for eating with rice.  The basil leaves were fried to a crisp, so they were like little leaves chips.  The chicken meat was nice and tender and not dry at all even though it was deep-fried.

For dessert, I ordered the mango pudding.  For a hotel restaurant, this was not the quality I expected.  First, the mango pudding had a strong chemical flavor like they used a mango jelly powder to make the pudding.  The chemical flavor was quite off-putting.  Then, the mango pieces that were in the pudding had so much fibers in them.  It wasn't like it was one piece of mango that had the stringy fibers, there were 2 or 3 pieces with long stringy fibers, which made the mango pieces hard to swallow.

Overall, all of the dishes were delicious except for the dessert.  However, the restaurant was quite over-priced.  The check came out to over $2000 for the 3 of us, and we didn't order dishes that had extravagant and expensive ingredients.  I understand that it is a restaurant in a "six" star hotel and the decor was very nice, but still over-priced for what it is.

Also, even though the servers apologized for the extremely slow service a couple times during the meal, it was still a very long wait between each dish, and it took us about 3 hours to have dinner.
題外話/補充資料: On a side note, when we made the reservation, the server on the phone noted that my grandma is a Club Hyatt member. Even though it is listed in the terms and conditions that the club discount cannot be used on Christmas, it would still be nice to give a friendly reminder on the phone.
