    Few people understand not only how hard it is to get three stars, but more so to maintain them. Unbelievable that they have kept that level of excellence for ten years. Incredible!

    So many salty comments ! Firstly the restaurant isn't forced to accept the stars, if they don't think they are valid or don't care they can refuse. Nobody knows who the reviewers are, they could well be people from HK, so lets not say they are from France and don't know how to rate Chinese food. I didn't see any evidence that the restaurant adjusted their cooking style to suit western tastebuds. This is high priced restaurant popular with local rich people as well as tourists. Also there is nothing wrong with using non-traditional ingredients to create new flavour combinations. Restaurants in every country do it ! They are still using the traditional cantonese cooking style. I didn't see them doing any of the molecular gastronomy type stuff.

The staff are clean cut and dedicated, the food is well presented and looks smart and appetizing why is everyone complaining? They experiment and apply new ways to make chinese food tasty, its fresh and inviting!

  • @PillsLifestyleReviews
    @PillsLifestyleReviews 6 ปีที่แล้ว +300

    I don't get why so many people are against Asians pushing the boundaries of their food. Western food is suppose to keep innovating and integrating ingredients from all over the world while Asian food is somehow supposed to remain as "traditional" as a badly dubbed Kung Fu movie...

    • @FoieGras
      @FoieGras 5 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Chinese cuisine is actually SUPER progressive. I find sashimi and goose liver (not quite Foie Gras) on the menu when I go out to eat all the time! They just like to incorporate the ingredients INTO their dishes. Japanese is more tradition-bound, but that's changing as well thanks to the Japanese take on foreign restaurants

    • @CaptainGrimes1
      @CaptainGrimes1 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think anyone is against? If Asian food was 'traditional' there would be no chilli peppers or corn or potatoes in cuisine and that would make Chinese food difficult to cook and Indian food impossible. But I guess people want Asian food to keep true to the cooking techniques and philosophy of how they cook just so the whole world doesn't end up eating fusion cuisine and also because those classic recipes have been perfected over hundreds of years, would be a shame to lose them or to change them.

    I've been to Lung King Heen many times both for lunch and dinner. I really love the dim sums there especially buns with BBQ pork and pine nuts and steamed rice rolls. But dinner pales in comparison with lunch. The food is actually quite disappointing considering the price. Lunch is much better value for money. That's why nowadays I usually just go there for lunch. If you want to enjoy the full range of dim sums (not many choices in any event), you need to come during weekends and public holiday and book way in advance. Based on my experience, I need to book 2 to 3 months ahead for a table for 4.

    • @terencewong4687
      @terencewong4687 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      HeAdSpInNeR96 For lunch, if a group of 4 want to eat decently and leave not still feeling hungry (but not stuffed), expect to pay between USD 70 and 80 per head. This will include tea, some dim sums (including (a) the abalone and diced chicken pastry and (b) the steamed lobster and scallop dumpling both of which is charged by piece), some fried noodles/rice, some vegetables and a dessert. But, drinks other than tea isn't included.
      It's hard to say for dinner. It really depends on which kind of dishes you order if you go a la carte since some of the wagyu beef and seafood dishes can be really expensive. But as I say, I prefer lunch there.

    Belated congratulations for the stars. Here in the USA, the dreaded americanized ubiquitous "chinese takeout" restaurant scene is slowly giving way to much more authentic and seasonal regional cuisines, in tandem with changing tastes and a broader interest in global cuisines in general. Given a choice between chicken chow mein (shudder), and say stirfried cumin lamb from Beijing style cuisine (yum), I will nearly always choose the latter, and that is just one of many regional styles in china. It gladdens me to see our cultural blinders slowly falling away ... it is not true everywhere, but it is definitely happening here on Long Island.

    The thing with Michelin star is: They're unfair
    No offense to Japanese (as I eat sushi), but how does one shop gets michelin stars and the others are not?
    As far as I know (I've eaten countless high-end sushi across Japan), the shop that received the stars DOES NOT INNOVATE, they just do the same thing continuously for decades without changing a single thing (without innovating, breaking the boundaries, making new stuffs)
    Imagine if Eleven Madison Park keeps doing the same dishes for an entire year without innovation? The stars will be removed.

      It started by accident. They created their tour guide so people would drive and need tires. Seriously. Once those customers started flocking to the places they recommended the stars were created.

      @@lovefromethan Vietnam literally has dog meat restaurants and pet dogs are frequently kidnapped and sold (as food).
      But to be objective, there's really nothing wrong with eating dog meat. Why is it okay for the West to impose its own moral values on other cultures? You don't see the West cutting back on beef consumption even though people in India see cow meat as taboo. Why do Asians in Asia have to respect the cultural taboos of white people, when white people flagrantly disregard the cultural taboos of Asians living in Asia? It's always Western morality above everyone else. The mantra that "West is Right," or more explicitly, "White is Right." I know Vietnam was colonized by the French so you can't help but to pedestalize them, but please stop putting white people on a pedestal--it's embarrassing.

    I’m not judging wether this restaurant deserves it or not because I’ve never been there , but those restaurants awarded Michelin stars recently in Taiwan are overrated. We local are not so impressed about their food, and believe me there are others out there deserves the award much more. However, if the foreigners are willing to overpay for the meal you are welcome to do so. After all it is the safest bet when you are not familiar about the area, and at the very least you can show off your Michelin foodie on social media and get a couple thumb up...

    It's not that few Chinese restaurant qualify Michelin, but that true Chinese cuisine is too little known and experienced outside China. Open a stirfry restaurant in Beijing or Chongqing and you'll close up on the third day.

    Let’s be honest, Asian cuisines are complicated and difficult to master. The most difficult part is to use basic food material to crest a delicious dish while in the west will use expensive materials. If you throw a live lobster in a pot and it will come out tasty.

  • @bertoman1990
    @bertoman1990 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    The only western ingredient they incorporate with their dishes is the truffle. Besides that they modify their dishes a little supposedly taste wise. To be able to get three stars would mean to be playful with your cooking style. I'm surprised he maintained the stars for 10yrs. Most restaurants lose em after a few years

  • @MerricMaker
    @MerricMaker 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well-earned. But generally, more pomp gets you more Michelin stars. They don't focus enough on the food itself. There are so many places making superior food that get two stars and one star because their place settings aren't pretty enough or other meaningless ephemera.
