This happened some time ago, but the badness still leaves an awful taste in my mouth. The decor was fun: there were fishes swimming in the hole in the middle of our table, but that’s the best thing I can say of the restaurant.

We ordered the set menu, which came up to over $360 for 6 adults. The steamed fish and fried prawns were stale and limp; the Peking duck was sawdust dry; no sharks died for the shark’s fin soup because we couldn’t find any fin; the dumplings were just lame; and the best dish was the brocolli. 

Why is this restaurant still open?
