To kick start our appetite, we shared a small plate of
pickled fruit and vegetables which was balanced in terms of acidity, sweetness
and spiciness. Next up was a clay pot dish with sea cucumber fillets, abalone,
broccoli and shitake mushroom, stewed and thickened with the addition of
potentially corn flour.
Second dish served was a four seasons plate – deep fried,
crispy squid tentacles dressed in a citrus concoction, savoury fried spring
rolls, jelly fish salad topped with finely sliced purple onions, chilli and
coriander and a serve of fried roll stuffed with imitation crab roll, taro and
sweet potato. One of my favourite dishes of the night albeit costing about
RM128.
The fried roll stuffed with tuber and crab meat was delish, the addition
of tubers had absorbed any excess oil from the frying process and thus,
retaining the roll’s overall crispness. Not a big fan of jelly fish but found
this to be refreshing, especially when mixed with the sweet and sour dressing.
Lastly, a plate of sang har mee (big prawns with noodles)
arrived at our table. Diners can choose between being served larger prawns or
the average sized prawns. With larger prawns, more flavour can be extracted
from it, lending more fragrance to the overall dish. Pretty good in my opinion,
again, costing quite a fair bit as well.
Finding food in uncommon grounds is a tedious process,
sometimes bearing drool worthy results and sometimes, questionable outcomes
after foraging for that place.
