10/11/2025: Great Dining Experience with Impressive Dishes! I had a wonderful meal here that totally exceeded my expectations! The food is prepared with great care, and each dish has distinct flavors that left a deep impression. The grilled red sea bream was incredibly flavorful and well-cooked, while the sweet and sour pork (guobaorou) was a standout—its meat is firm and slightly chewy, which I personally loved (food preferences are subjective, after all!). The dumplings had a chewy wrapper, though the shrimp filling had a slight fishy taste—reminding me of the tough texture issue with Tunisian shrimp I had last month, a minor letdown. As someone who prefers vegetarian dishes over meat, the "Lotus Pond Moonlight" was my favorite—it’s fresh, crisp, and so delicious that I could finish the whole plate alone! The home-style tofu isn’t the fried type, so I was a bit disappointed at first, but it turned out to be savory and tasty. The chestnut chicken was also excellent: the chicken was perfectly tender, and if the chestnuts were a bit softer, I would’ve eaten the entire portion by myself. The rice was fragrant and fluffy, and I ended up having half a bowl without realizing it. The portion sizes aren’t overly large, but that’s actually a plus—it lets you order more dishes to try a variety of flavors . The overall atmosphere is pleasant, and it’s a great spot for anyone looking to enjoy authentic, flavorful food. Highly recommend giving it a try!
