Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong｜Spring Moon

One Michelin star Chinese restaurant, Spring Moon, located in the famous and posh Peninsula Hotel Hong Kong. The menu is quite extensive and quite mind blowing. Must haves at this restaurant are the Hungarian Mangalica barbecued pork, char siu, it melts in your mouth, it’s that good! And also have to try the steamed whole crab claw with egg white and aged Chinese wine, and for dessert, we also ordered the baked tapioca pudding with chestnut, immensely satisfying. Not to mention the service is also exceptional. We have eaten here numerous times and I highly recommend this restaurant!

Attentive service. Good quality food. Well prepared dim sum. Mouthwatering and satisfying all taste buds. The radish pastry, fish soup and lobster rice rolls exceeded expectations. Highly recommended. Moreover, 2h free parking.

Heard so much about Spring Moon and after so many prior visits to HK, we decided to make a visit to Spring Moon. From reservations to our actual lunch, everything was done in a superb manner. Marco was the one who emailed me and recommended dishes that I might wish to possibly reserve for our lunch. On our visit, we were made to feel very warm and welcomed to our table. Service was impeccable and our main server for the day was Jerry. He came by numerous times to check on us and how was our dinning experience. We saw that the hotel was serving dumplings so we decided to ask if we could have them for lunch since it was supposed to be a takeaway item. Jerry checked with the chef and made sure we got our item abet he had to stress it would take some time like an hour but we were fine with waiting. Food wise, everything was tastefully done from the setting to the appearance and the taste itself. From the explanation of the sauces to use to the dish itself. The server was on task for the tea, moving the pot back to the counter to top up and to make sure our tea was hot all the time. Nice. We had some dim sum which was good and we had from the main menu, the crab claw which was well worth what we paid for. Sweet and succulent to the last bite. The BBQ pork was great. I must say that I had three versions in the last 3 days from Tin Lung Heen, Man Wah and Spring Moon and all three tasted great. But if I was to choose one, I would go for Spring Moon’s one. It had that extra sweet taste in it. Dessert was almond cream and it was good. Even my wife who doesn’t usually take almond tried a few spoons before passing me to finish up the rest which I duly obliged. What made our lunch extra special was what Jerry had prepared for us while serving the dessert. We received a lovely platter with delicious mini egg tarts and a kind of “kueh” to mark our wedding anniversary. I mean it was thoughtful enough as they didn’t need to do that. Not all places would do that. Probably if you ordered some desert with cake, they might add in some wordings but kudos to Jerry. Definitely would come back again on our next trip to HK. Well worth all the hype and the food and service was top notch. In fact I feel that a 4.3 review is kinda unfair to them. This was at least on par with what we experienced in Man Wah and Tin Lung Heen.
