Had lunch there - the dishes were decent but unfortunately some of them missed the mark despite the elegant and clean appearance of the restaurant. Apple appetiser - appetizing but could do with a little less seasoning which was heavy for some pieces. The uni seaweed starter was very disappointing - look at the photo on the menu and the actual uni seaweed starter look starkly different in terms of the uni quantity and colour, not to mention when eating it I could not taste the uni at all. The clams were good! If a little spicy numbing. The yellow croaker was decent if a little overcooked. The hot sour soup was just overly peppery - could not taste the seafood. The seaweed soup was good, it had a rich flavour to it beyond just seaweed. Ginger duck was good as well, the spiciness was cooked right out of the ginger slices which we finished all of. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with wood and red accents, unfortunately marred by wailing children - the waitress did her best to try to placate the child with sweets but it was more of a parental issue beyond their control. There was also a China “Karen” who kept scolding the staff sarcastically - it did not seem they had anyone senior or authoritative enough to handle her repeated loud comments which were clearly intended to cause discomfort to the rest of the diners and make a scene. It was overall too easy to be overhearing all the conversations up to a few tables over.
