Saw a review on this place earlier showing pictures of Fish maw and sharks fin at cheap prices so decided to give it a try.
There was one in Mong Kong I intended to try, but that place and food didn’t convince me enough, this restaurant looked reasonably clean and specialised at these delicacies.
Anyway picked the set for two with braised duck feet with fish maw, and sharks fin soup.
The set also includes a choice of two Chinese dishes, so picked sweet and sour fish, and steamed tofu with scallops and black beans.
First to arrive was the sweet and sour fish, then came the sharks fin soup. The soup was thick clear broth with chinese mushrooms, chicken, sharks fin in it. The taste was ok on its own, you didn’t have to add any red vinegar or sesame oil.
Tofu was the last to arrive, and after all that strong tasting food, the tofu was a bit tasteless.
The braised duck feet was nice and soft, the bones were easily removable, the fish maw was big in size, but needed pepper to balance out the fishy taste.
The sweet and sour fish was really good too, the portion could have been bigger.
However the cost of the set was $258, so if you exclude drinks, main dishes, the fish maw and sharks fin is worth around $80-100, so that’s $40-50 per person for fish maw and sharks fin.
I think this place is a nice place for people who want to have those delicacies at a low price, but don’t expect it to be as good as the expensive ones. What you pay is what you get!
