Review Date: 12 Feb 2008
201 Keppel Road, Level 9 Prima Tower, Singapore
"Lo Hei" Lunch - what's the rave about?

Seriously, what's there to rave about except for the being a part of "lazy susan", revolving round the tower...

Menu of the day:

发财鱼生
Prosperity Yu Sheng: Tasty with fresh fish but the waitress wasn't entertaining enough in "chanting" the nice words meant for CNY

海跃龙腾 - 海鲜鱼翅
Braised Shark’s Fin Soup with Seafood: This is really blend. I'm like a mini chef, performing my own culinary skills with vinegar, pepper and light soya sauce to enhance the flavour of the soup

花开富贵 - 椒盐石斑
Deep-fried Garoupa with Salt & Pepper: Nothing interesting. another blend dish but they did have those "char siew" sauce which you have to dip in.

贺岁填鸭 - 烤北京填鸭
Authentic Barbecued Peking Duck: the crepe tasted nice but the duck skin wasn't very much interesting. i LIKe the way they cook the meat with bean sprouts. iT IS meant to be wrapped in lettuce. tASTED refreshing and not heavy for the meal


四平八稳 - 京烤骨皇(配花卷)
Stewed Pork Ribs (served with buns): Oily and i don't like the strong vinegar smell

龙马精神 - 白灼活虾
Boiled Live Prawns: Pretty much like what you can DIY at home since it's juz plain boiling

鸿运双宝 - 红烧鲍鱼海参
Braised Abalone with Sea Cucumber: tHE DISH itself doesn't look appetizing at all. With the wormy dark sea cucumber swimming in a pool of gravy. abalone wasn't 'strategically' placed and it made the dish looked cheapo

安居乐业 - 腊味荷叶饭
Lotus Leaf Rice with Chinese Sausages: Can't rem the taste of this because by this time, we felt so stuffed. The set meal was really heavy and we are so sicked of anything served right before us. Perhaps planning of the set menu has failed to consider the heaviness of every dish

海洋藏宝 - 海底椰龙眼
Sea Coconut with Longan: Well something sweet to end off but this definitely seem like something you can get from the food court. Expected something better and harder to whip up.

Pretty disappointing as i expected better food with the corporate crowd and price stated. Still, the variety for this set menu is well appreciated

 
Must Tries: not this set menu definitely
 
I also recommend this place for
Type of meal:Lunch, Dinner
Occasion:Large Groups/Gathering, Children/Family, Corporate Functions
Atmosphere:View/Scenery
