Staying on par with other examples of Chinese fine dining in Macau, the execution is remarkable and consistent, as is the rich array of artisanal teas. Featuring seasonal varieties and bespoke blends, they undergo proper brewing throughout the meal by experienced service staff, whose attentiveness and keenness to provide fine hospitality is in another league all on its own.
