The service was appalling for a restaurant, it was more like a Cafe de Coral than a proper restaurant, flinging your dishes at you as if in a fast food place. The main restaurant was full so we had to eat in a Japanese restaurant downstairs. The best part was when the wraps for the Peking duck had a dead cockroach inside. I was so horrified I forgot to take a photo but the waitress took it away without an apology and simply replaced it with a new lot. You would have thought the manager would have come and at least apologised or acknowledged the issue but they basically just carried on treating all their guests like Basil Fawlty and Manuel in Fawlty Towers.
The Peking duck was pretty yummy before we found the cockroach.
Dinner was HKD 800 for 3 people with no alcohol....

Overall EXTREMELY disappointing for the price. 3/10 meal. I’ve had better food and...
Read moreCame after reading a great food review. Very disappointed. The restaurant markets and anchors itself on one dish — roasted Peking duck. The duck unfortunately was cut and the meat “dug out” in a butchered manner, without factoring in the direction of the meat pattern, the thickness of a slice, nor a balance between fat and meat. The skin is not crispy. The wrap (quite elegantly and delicately done) was brought out right upon ordering; so by the time the duck was served they were cold and dull. Tried its other signature dish - braised ham with honey sauce. The dish is rather average, blend, missing the typical salty-sweet balance expected...
