Central, Hong Kong｜MIAN

It’s my first time visiting this restaurant, and I’d say it is great value for quite exquisite dishes. The menu has quite a number of interesting dishes (particularly seafood) not typically found in upscale Chinese restaurants. Every dish we ordered was tasty. We had the red crab steamed with egg white and yellow wine (花雕蛋白蒸花蟹). Full of flavours and there’s a lot of meat. Egg white with smooth and you taste the hint of yellow wine - definitely a dish I would order again. The braised bitter melon in broth (翡翠玉枕) was one of their signature dishes. Bitter melon was finely chopped into thin slices soaked in their house broth. Very impressive too, but since I’m not a bitter melon fan, I did not love this dish. Their deep-fried crispy chicken in scallion sauce (紅棉蔥油雞) was recommended by the manager to us. We loved it - chicken skin was beautifully fried and so crispy, meat was tender, scallion sauce was light but flavourful. We also highly recommend their seafood fried rice (海鮮炒飯) which simply had so many ingredients that compliment each other super well. Great solid delicious fried rice. The restaurant offered tang yuan for free as it was the Chinese Lantern Festival. We topped it with some crispy fresh milk curd paired with sweet rose jam (玫瑰鍋炸), this was also yummy but it’s not a WOW dish, and we loved the rose jam so much. One small negative point I experienced was a very slow drinks service. I had to wait for 15 minutes for a simple soda mocktail, and another 15 minutes for the straw. The staff apologised about this and reasoned that they ran out of straws. Parking is available at the hotel premise at quite a hefty price. But you can also park at the commerical building carpark just next door at a much lower price. Overall the experience was great, service was fine and met the expectations, prices were on the higher end but a worthy meal. I will surely revisit with my family.

Dinner is already a super class (ceiling level). It is recommended to have tea and snacks, but book a table in advance.
