Chef shows off his skills
Although I have lived abroad, there is no denying that I have a Chinese stomach, and every now and then I want to eat Chinese food.
The last time I visited the Star Banquet was before the pandemic, how much the world has changed in the past few years I need not say much, the executive chef here has certainly been replaced, so I was in the mood to try as a new restaurant.
I saw a set recommended by the chef, so I decided to eat this set! Doesn't even the chef believe it!
Starters are chili crayfish, barbecued pork, and fragrant pan-fried golden oysters. The crayfish are served in small glassware, dry ice makes a smoking effect. In the age of camera/mobile phone eating first, whatever cuisine needs to take into account visual enjoyment. Again, the crayfish heat controlled at home, crisp and not tough, oozing a faint hemp aroma, is indeed a good start.
The char siu is made from Spanish black-haired pork, thickly sliced with slightly burnt edges. It looks lean, but the meat is loose. The golden oysters are larger than expected, and the sweetness of the osmanthus honey juice is delicious.
The set always cannot be separated from the soup, honeydew melon and orchid are good things, the soup is sweet to a point, plus a thick and large flower stalks, the entrance is smoky and rich in glue. After eating the flower stalks and drinking all the soup, you are definitely full.
Next came the seafood sauce crispy skin stuffed ginseng, thick ginseng covered with a thin golden holy clothes, bite crispy, ginseng refreshing body, then combined with the pork and shrimp stuffed inside, rich layers of taste, dipped in seafood sauce and eat, a unique flavor.
Another main course was mustard Australian Wagyu beef cubes, the beef cubes loosening is inevitable, drizzled with mustard sauce for more excitement, and served with some mushrooms as a garnish, the whole thing becomes harmonious. However, my favorite is the crispy fish fillet on the bottom, which is crispy and delicious.
By this time, I was 90% full. Fortunately, the portion of rice was not too exaggerated. At first I saw the menu saying red rice and thought it was the healthy but not tasty one. It turns out I was wrong, the master cooked the rice with beetroot sauce, it looks good and has a fresh sweetness, mixed with crispy rice, served with scallops, barbecued pork and pickled vegetables, this rice really can be cleared no matter how full it is.
The dessert is not complicated. The layered date cake and the spicy black sugar peach jelly ginger milk jelly have satisfied the sweet stomach.
