Boston Garden | Thank you for roasting pheasant!
🦞 Victoria Seafood: Boston’s Cantonese Gem—Roast Pigeon & Lobster Steal the Show We went big: the 4-person set meal ($161) plus a Satay Beef & Vermicelli Hot Pot ($20). The spread? Generous, flavorful, and full of Cantonese classics—with a few hits and one major miss. 🌟 Must-Order Highlights Roast Pigeon (in set meal): 🐦 Why did I wait so long to try this? Crispy, shatterproof skin with perfectly seasoned, tender meat—on par with top dim sum spots in China. Juicy, salty, and addictive—the standout of the meal. Ginger-Scallion Lobster (2 in set meal): 🦐 Plump, bouncy lobster meat tossed in fragrant ginger and scallions. Fresh, sweet, and coated in a light sauce that’s savory without being heavy. So much meat—worth every penny. Mala Tofu (in set meal): 🍮 A Victoria staple for a reason. Silky egg tofu, fried then simmered with shrimp, scallops, minced pork, mushrooms, and peas in a thickened sauce. Umami-packed, slightly salty, and perfect over rice. Satay Beef & Vermicelli Hot Pot ($20): 🍲 Rich, peanutty satay flavor with tender beef and vermicelli. A little salty (expected in a hot pot), but deeply satisfying—great for sharing. ❌ The Major Letdown Salt & Pepper Short Ribs (in set meal): 🥩 Avoid all (salt & pepper) dishes here. These were under-seasoned—barely any pepper or salt—just greasy, fried meat. Dry, flavorless, and a waste of space on the table. Stick to garlic butter instead. 📍 Bonus Details The set meal also includes greens and a mountain of rice—more than enough for 4 people. Location: Steps from BU (1029 Commonwealth Ave)—convenient for students and locals. Vibe: Casual, no-fuss Cantonese spot—focused on flavor over frills. Overall, a solid choice for a group feast. Skip the salt & pepper dishes, and you’ll leave stuffed and happy. #BostonCantonese #SeafoodFeast #BUFood
