Lai Lai mass produces their ramen by making sure their own recipe is properly produced as final product in a factory. Half-lean half-fat pork belly layers that melts in your mouth easily

Ramen noodles served in milky coloured broth with braised pork belly slices, seaweed, fungus and spring onions. The braised pork belly is easily one of the best around, well braised resulting in balanced layers of tender meat and melting fats. Indeed, it is delicious and absorbed most of the flavours from the broth used for braising. As for the ramen, I find it slightly losing its springy texture, but perhaps it’s because of us taking quite some time to snap photos of this dish. Due to long hours of boiling, the broth resulted in milky colour that infuses the essence of pork. We find the broth just average, as it lacks the porky flavor that it should have. On the positive side, I was pleased with the broth that has slightly thick consistency.

As starter, we have this nourishing soup to warm up our tummy and prepare to savour the coming dishes. The experience is enhanced when it is being served in a hot claypot, so fret not that the soup will turn cold fast. If you dislike strong herbal taste, this soup is good for you as the mild aroma from Dang Gui and Wolfberries contributed pleasant taste. I personally find that the herbal taste was not strong enough to have the ‘oomph’ that provides comforting effect. The goodness from herbs and duck had partially infused to the broth, which I felt could be done better. The duck meat is easily shredded and tender, shown that it has been boiled for long hours. Although there was a thin layer of oil on the surface of soup, I was glad that it did not affect the overall taste that badly.

Fresh Mango Cream with Pamelo

Incredibly rich, thick and creamy dessert that makes us craving for more after the first sip. Filled with sago, pamelo and mango cubes, we enjoyed the overall flavour a lot. Definitely a cooling dessert that offsets the heat from spicy dishes we had earlier.Hong Kong Ice Lemon Tea

Good thirst quencher but needs a stronger lemon taste to contribute extra sour tinge.

Mapo Bean Curd with Chicken Meat & Chili Sauce

A spicy dish due to the addition of red chilli padi, which I expected dried chillies to be used initially. A decent tasting dish with a more apprent soy sauce flavour.Fried Broccoli topped with Crab Meat

Fresh broccoli doused which starchy sauce containing fresh small pieces of crab meat, a comforting and homey dish indeed. I like that the broccolis are not overcooked, retaining adequate crunch, sweetness and bright green colour. The size of broccoli could be bigger to enhance overall appearance of the dish.

Deep Fried Large Sea Prawns with Salty Egg Yolk

A very memorable dish excecuted well by pairing creamy salted egg sauce with prawns. Prawns were boasted with freshness and succulent meat texture.Eastern Special Seafood No. 1 Hot Pot

Contains good spread of seafood items such as crab claws, squid, scallops, fish, prawns and beancurd. All of the seafood were very fresh, further enhanced by the starchy flavourul sauce that infuses the goodness of seafood. Another well cooked dish that most of us like it very much.
