The plump pan-seared scallops, served with corn and teriyaki sauce, are firm and tender, and make an enjoyable start to the meal. In a league of its own is the luxurious and exquisitely gelatinous braised superior bird’s nest, accented with pumpkin sauce and garnished with aromatic black truffles. The pan-fried chicken is another stellar dish, with the delicate fungi providing an earthy touch. Seafood lovers will enjoy the tender lobster pieces in wok-fried rice, made richer with the addition of a spicy XO sauce. The compact wine list features a good range of by-the-glass options, with Chinese wines available upon request.
