After a couple of minutes perusing the menu my boyfriend decided to order. He ordered 5 dishes for us. The first dish he ordered was the "Yang Zhou Mixed Fried Rice"

Creamy Seafood soup
The first soup that arrived was the "Hot and Sour Soup." My boyfriend told me that the taste of this soup might be a little odd for me and it is an acquired taste. I smelled the soup and told my boyfriend that I could not eat that soup. I said that it smelled odd. My boyfriend only laughed at me and told me that the overpowering smell was the smell of Chinese vinegar and the black vegetable were mushrooms. There were some Tofu also but I cannot make out the other ingredients. With much persuasion from my boyfriend I tasted a couple of spoon full. The taste was too overpowering for me and it it tasted really different from the soup I am used too "egg drop soup" of Knorr. I beg my boyfriend if I could just have the "Creamy Seafood soup" instead. He agreed and he ate the "Hot and Sour Soup." I could see that he really enjoyed the soup since he was eating one spoonful after another. Honestly, I can still remember the taste of "Hot and Sour Soup" it didn't taste bad it just tasted different. Actually writing this blog is making me crave for "Hot and Sour Soup" I should have enjoyed it maybe I will try again when I visit Pavilion Mall to buy the Sofa bed I saw when I went.
The "Creamy Seafod Soup" was was awesome to say the least. It looks like egg drop soup with lots of seafod in it. I asked what where the white meat that was in the soup. My boyfriend does not really know it but he guessed it was abalone a type of sea molluscs. It was tasty that I wanted more but my boyfriend reminded me that there were more dishes to come so better not order another one. Comparing the two soups I really enjoyed the "Creamy Seafod Soup" but the "Hot and Sour Soup" had a more lasting appeal to me. I can still remember the odd taste and the more I imagine the taste I want to try it once more with a more open mind.
The next dish my boyfriend ordered was the "Butteryfly Prawns"

Butteryfly Prawns
I really loved this dish it tasted like tempura. However unlike Tempura this dish does not need any soy souce to dip in. It tasted great with the "Yang Zhou Mixed Rice" we ordered. It was so crisp and delicious you can even eat the tail! Comparing it to tempura does not really do this dish justice as I believe this is far more superior in terms of taste and texture. I liked that dish so well that my boyfriend reminded me that that dish was meant to be shared and there was another dish that I have not tasted it was the "Kung Pao Chicken."

Kung Pao Chicken
The only way to describe "Kung Pao Chicken" was like tasting heaven. It was so delicious even if the chicken skin was removed. I really love that dish that I researched it in online how it is made and learn how to cook it. It turned out that it was so popular that it was made the official dish in the summer olympics of 2008 according to this site. I love the taste of the all the ingredient. The chicken was superb, the vegetable was crunchy even the peanuts was delightful. Anyone who will visit this restaurant should try it.
I was so delighted with our food that I wanted to try the other dishes. But our stomach cannot handle it anymore. I will definitely go back to this restaurant and try the other dishes they offer. After eating to our hearts content. My boyfriend ask for the bill. He told me that the bill was not that high for the quality and quantity of food we had. This was our bill:
Hot and sour soup: 49.00 PHP
Creamy seafood soup: 59.00 PHP
Chicken mixed fried rice: 59x2 = 118.00 PHP
Butterfy Prawns: 299.00 PHP
Chicken KungPao: 199.00
Canned soda: 2 x 45 = 90 PHP
Extra plain rice: 19 PHP
TOTAL: 833.00 PHP or 16.6 USD or 5.8 SBD
