Di King Heen Review

There are not many writers whose works can be used in cuisine, and Eileen Chang is one of them. The Eileen Chang banquet launched by Royal Plaza Hotel in Mongkok combines nine stories from the novels. The presentation is beautiful and moving. Even if you have never read Eileen Chang's novels, it is enough to make you linger on the taste!

You can taste authentic Hong Kong-style Cantonese cuisine here. The products are very refined and elegant, and the taste is very good. Recommended signature dishes include salt-baked chicken, abalone, goose feet, braised vegetable gall, pine nut, chrysanthemum and mandarin fish, crystal shrimp dumplings, braised pork, etc.

It is a good place to taste hairy crabs in Hong Kong. I recommend the Crab·Palace·Feast offered by Dijingxuan, which is just right for two people. In addition to two 4.5-liang male hairy crabs, there are also pine mushrooms, crab roe, braised silky snow bird and two six-head tiger prawns, which are really delicious.

The Chinese restaurant is still very popular, with a solemn and old-fashioned decoration. The black truffle foie gras tofu skin rolls, the subtle fragrance of truffles, and the taste of foie gras, together make it a bit greasy. The signature barbecued pork is large in portion, a bit fatty, and sweet. The soup is delicious. I can drink two more bowls. The dim sum is very delicate and cute in shape. The name of each dish is announced before it is served. The dessert after the meal is the signature red bean paste, which has just the right sweetness and a crunchy feeling. The service is first-class and it is suitable for business negotiations.

The grouper was the best, must try the big pieces, well seasoned overall. Can taste the freshness of the fish, firm and meaty.

As autumn arrives, hairy crabs are in season again. Dijingxuan offers a crab/palace/banquet set menu, which includes two steamed Taihu hairy crabs, crab roe soup dumplings, snow bird's nest stewed with pine mushrooms and crab roe, barbecued pork with black pork, six-headed tiger prawns, Phoenix glutinous rice, brown sugar ginger tea and five-nut walnut cakes, and can be paired with a special rose Huadiao cocktail. It feels great.
