I invited my mom to have a dinner date with me because she's been living in Hong Kong for many years, and she absolutely loves Chinese food! Before you even enter the restaurant, you can really see how well they've decorated the restaurant! From the entrance, to the ceilings, walls, tables, absolutely everything! They serve the usual Chinese food, like siomai, Hakaw, Pork Buns, and the like.. But they've also got unique dishes I've never heard of or seen anywhere else like their Northern Style Lamb Dumplings, and their Minced Lamb wrapped in Pancake with leeks (this dish was delish!) We ordered a lot of food like the Smoked Duck Breast in Hoisin Wrap! I love duck and this dish is so good and contains a lot of vegetables! Their chicken dishes are also quite known to those who have tried them because of how good they are... I especially LOVE their sweet and sour chicken and their Honey Sesame Crispy chicken too!

Opting for a quick bite, we had pork and chive dumplings which were a tad bit small but big in size. Love the hint of star anise in its filling and black vinegar dipping sauce that came with it (I usually request for black vinegar at other dimsum places). On the other hand, the beef Hofan was pretty good and textbook stir fry- good balance of flavor and textures. Both dishes came too oily but that's synonymous with Chinese comfort food!

They once had spectacular views of the bay but now what you see is the process of reclaiming land - ugh. But never mind, it doesn't take away from the wonderful experience. Service is fantastic too. Very warm, friendly but respectful, mindful and solicitous. So deserving of 5 stars. And the food..... every superlative I can think of goes to their Peking duck. Their menu is extensive and every order we made just kept getting better. You can't go wrong. It is a bit pricy but this is a perfect example of you get what you ay for.

Hand-pulled authentic Chinese noodles for only 80 pesos? YES PLEASE!…read more I love going to this places, mainly because they serve a big bowl of noodles. When I say big, it's almost thrice as large as the Chowking noodles! All that for under 100 bucks? Enough said, I'm taking everyone with me. Lan Zhou La Mien is located in Masangkay Street in Tondo, just across the Metropolitan Medical Center. I have gone here a couple of times now, thinking that I am THAT hungry to finish one bowl--I am always wrong. I think it's bigger than my stomach. Another great thing about this place is that they prepare it in a glass-covered kitchen so you can actually see how they do it. When served, you also have a big bowl of chopped spring onions to add to your soup!

That's not quite true, especially for the Chinese kid in me. For that kid, the universal panacea is the beef lamien from this place, served in a bowl bigger than your head, with soup that can be refilled if you ask nicely. Lan Zhou La Mien is one of those Chinese places that's crowded and hot, but you know the food's authentic and amazing. They even make the noodles right there in plain view of the customers, and it always ends up chewy and delicious. Order their lamien with a big plate of dumplings and you're all set. I've also discovered that that combination is perfect for hangovers. As if I needed more reasons to love this place.

In preparation for Chinese New Year, they had festive red lanterns hanging from the ceiling that didn't take away from the crystal chandeliers. There were regular tables but we preffered the booths that were slightly elevated and were definitely more private. The staff is very well trained, attentive, ever-present without being obsequious. We learned that every team member helps serve each table, from taking orders to pouring water, serving tea, etc. And all tips are shared. That's great way to promote teamwork and camaraderie. We opted for the Yum Cha, a Cantonese tradition literally meaning "drink tea," referring to a brunch meal where various Chinese teas are enjoyed alongside "dim sum"--small, shareable, steamed, fried, or baked dishes. In our case, that meant dim sum, as many as one can order for one set fee. They have an extensive selection that should please every palate. We ordered pork, chicken, seafood, tofu, even chicken feet. And every single dish was scrumptious. We made the suggestion that they change their tea pots into copper or something else that will retain heat. Their current ceramic tea pots just didn't keep the tea hot enough and we had to keep asking for new pots because our tea got cold very fast. The Shangri-la where Shang Palace is located is another matter. A very elegant hotel that offers venues for all kinds of celebrations. What we noticed was that as busy as it was, it seemed quite serene. It was quiet and very clean, a real show piece.

Shang Palace Christmas Set Menu Review…read more We had the Christmas Day set menu at Shang Palace, priced at around ₱2,800 per head, with higher-tier options at ₱4,000 and ₱6,000. For the price, this was a very satisfying experience and a great option for a festive family lunch. The ambience is classic Shang Palace, elegant, quiet, and slightly majestic, perfect for a Christmas celebration. Service was attentive and polished throughout, with good pacing between courses and no feeling of being rushed. The meal started with dim sum, which set the tone nicely. The siomai and shrimp rolls were standouts, delicate, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The beancurd roll was also very good, crisp on the outside with a well-seasoned filling. Among the mains, the Wok-Fried US Beef Tenderloin with Black Pepper Sauce was a highlight, tender slices of beef in a rich, savory, slightly peppery sauce that felt comforting and indulgent without being heavy. The seafood dish featuring scallops served in a crispy taro nest was both visually impressive and enjoyable, paired with vegetables that balanced the dish well. A mushroom and vegetable dish with bok choy came in a glossy, traditional sauce and complemented the meat dishes nicely. The fried rice was fragrant, well-cooked, and generously studded with meat and egg, the kind that keeps disappearing from the table. Dessert was the only weak point. It was a taro-based sweet soup with sago, similar to ginataan, and felt underwhelming compared to the rest of the meal. Overall, this was a very good Christmas set menu. The food was consistently well-prepared, the ambience elevated the occasion, and the service lived up to expectations. The ₱2,800 set already delivers solid value, though those looking for more premium ingredients may want to explore the higher-priced options. A great choice for holiday dining, just manage expectations for dessert.

Great Chinese places like Lido's help a lot too, because how the hell do you say no to Chinese food when it's been served in front of you, looking all tempting and delicious? In terms of Lido branches, this one is the go-to place for families, so you might be at a disadvantage if you eat here alone. It's always packed so it's best to call ahead, but once you're there, be prepared to forget all your worries and troubles as you dig into their excellent (and surprisingly cheap!) food. This is also the branch that has the best service so they got that going for them.
