8.5/10

Dan Dan noodles great, almost too rich with the spicy peanut sauce. Xiao Long Bao had a nice thin skin and a good amount of "soup". Beef roll was good but over the top with the meal. Too much hoisin sauce.

Ordered the corn kakiage twice and both times it was too heavily battered. Asian kakiage was excellent - crispy, airy and a good balance between savoury with the scallops, squid and shrimp and sweet with the onion. Beef filet fried rice was great as usual (love the slight bitterness from the fried garlic) as was the salmon carpaccio and tuna tartar (toast points stale, however). Matcha brulee was a little too frozen but included the hard caramel top.
