Due to the massive cold front from north west and north east sweeping thru' China down to Southern China coastal area, HK has unually been dropping to 10 degree celsius and broken the record of November. The weather can be really extreme. So in seeing this restaurant promoting their buffet hot pot and show a net price as HK$108, my feet immediately jumped into this restaurant. It's on the 3rd floor of the Emperor Group building at the junction of Johnston Road back on Hennessy Road.
1. So the soy sauce, chilli and various juices are inclusive. I prefer this kind of net incl. price without any trapping misleading misc. charges, like peanut as $10, chili at $20, tea@per head $8, hot pot soup at $40-70. So even if some others say it's $88 for all-you-can-eat, it would turn out the bill would be over $150 to $180 per person. 2. So I chose the drunken chicken soup base. The chicken is pretty nice and has chicken taste.
3. All right - put the chicken first to make a nice soup base. I would recommend to get some soup before putting all the other hot pot food so that you can try the real taste of the soup. It's pretty good. 4. Then order a deep fried fish skin - very crispy and even after dipping in the soup for 10 to 15 seconds.
5. The shrimp and oyster are a bit beyond my expectation - pretty fresh. The restaurant offers bean sprouts from Beijing. Then they have the black pig's pork (bottom one). In general, most of the food are pretty good but avoid to take the faked crab fillet and fish ball. Anyway, $108 net is a very good price. Though some food are not too good, I can't have any complaint considering paying for such a good price.
