Confidence Guarantee

Friends need to meet in person. As we reach middle age, we need to learn to treat ourselves better. Tonight, I’m having abalone with a few friends. Ah Wong Abalone’s quality is unquestionable, having received Michelin recognition for consecutive years, which says it all. No need to overthink, the best choice is the set meal, perfect for a late-night treat: the "Ah Wong Abalone Signature Feast." It starts with braised shark fin in clay pot or crab meat with bamboo fungus and fish maw stew. I had never tried the latter before, so I gave it a go. The dish is very generous, full of crab meat and fish maw strips, paired with broth, every bite is delicious. The star of the show is the abalone with goose web, using 30-head premium abalone. Although farmed, thanks to Ah Wong’s unique cooking technique, it remains tender with a soft center—excellent! The goose web is huge, not tough at all, tender and flavorful without falling apart. I really like it. The abalone sauce, of course, cannot be wasted, served with the crisp and crunchy Chinese lettuce hearts—top-notch. Next up is the traditional deep-fried stuffed crab shell, with a dry and crispy exterior and packed with abundant crab meat inside. Every bite is fresh and tasty. If you like, you can dip it in a little vinegar—high quality. For two people, the meal includes a crispy fried chicken or deep-fried golden roast pigeon. I’ve always been a fan of the fried chicken, having tried it many times, it’s absolutely a confidence guarantee. The scallion and dried scallop fried rice is visibly dry and each grain is separate, fragrant and delicious. I didn’t leave a single grain behind. Dessert at a high-end restaurant naturally includes almond tea with egg white, freshly ground, smooth and soothing, very satisfying for the sweet tooth! Then a bite of the crumbly almond and walnut cookie, followed by the sweet coconut milk mung bean cake to finish. This set meal is flawless~ Restaurant info: Regal Restaurant Shop 402, 4th Floor, Food Forum, Phase 1, Mira Place, 132 Nathan Road, Tsim Sha Tsui #FoodGuide
