Not up to par at all

I went here for my 21st Birthday, with my parents, 2 months ago. We always wanted to try the revolving restaurant, but never did until now.

We decided to get the set lunch for four - 168 dollars pax (without service and gst). It was one of the most terrible traditional chinese meals we have had. I have eaten much better food at those 2-dollar dimsum places.

First they came out with a weird concoction of eggs and chicken sauce - I can make that at home, if I wanted to. That would not have been so bad, had it not been followed by a bland tofu-spinach soup. Everything served was just way too hot and did not have much of a flavour. The stir-fried vegetabled in ginger had way too much of a strong ginger taste, and I could eat more than 3 bites of it. It was the most disappointing meal I ever had.


The only plus point is the service staff - who were polite, expeditious and attentive. And the novelty of being in a revolving restaurant and seeing the view. That's about it, really. I wish my parents had checked with me before they decided to go to this place for my birthday, and I could have checked the hungrygowhere reviews before we wasted our money on it.
