Executive Chinese chef Chun Siew Seng and dim sum chef Ooi Eng Lam will be dishing out dim sum and Cantonese dishes in six set menus. The promo is extended till August due to positive feedback from customers.
The menus consist of three to four types of dim sum, soups, seafood, meat and vegetables dishes, accompanied by steamed rice and fruits.
My personal favourite was the grilled salmon, an unusual choice in a Cantonese menu, as I did not have to worry about bones.
