The hours here are incorrect. They close at 15:00 and reopen at 17:00. Food: sea cucumber. Meh, nothing special. Same thing as you'd get in any corner restaurant the signature crispy duck. Quite tasty and juicy. Would be amazing if they didn't chop it bones in, this means with every single bite, you get a mouth full of bones. It really ruines the experience. You can see in the picture the pile of bones. the pineapple buns. First, I don't know why there is a minimum order of 3, no matter how many people there are at the table. The buns are huge, I would say one is enough for 2 people. They taste good, but honestly it's pretty much bread with pineapple jam. Nothing more, nothing else. Service: We'll leave aside that the staff doesn't speak ANY English, which is not unusual in China, but it is in a Michelin restaurant. They're overall nice and fast.
One thing that stood out was that they charge you for napkins :))) Seriously! It's a low amount, but it's more about the principle.

But definitely not...

Roasted pigeon is juicy on the inside with crispy skin, pear soup is thick and full of flavour, fried fish is seasoned with pepper and chillies kick, egg tart is so good with crispy pastry layers and soft silky egg custard inside. Fried radish, red bean and ginger cake is good (start with radish flavour than red bean end with the strongest flavour, ginger cake).
However, the buffalo’s milk with black sesame is overly sweet and pumpkin with peach gum is kind of tasteless like not much of pumpkin puree.
This place is worth a try, I will definitely come back next time to try their...
Read moreActually it is not a seafood restaurant, it is a modern Cantonese restaurant although they serve some seafood menu. They do deserve for its simultaneously Michelin Award for many years. All of their dishes are really well prepared and delicious. Service is great and the price is reasonable. They don't take reservation, so you have to come directly and queue for the table. Avoid lunch and dinner time, come earlier or later after the peak hours to avoid the queue. I highly recommend this restaurant when you are visiting Guangzhou, Guangdong...
