Not just Chinese Tapas
2019-06-06  44 瀏覽
Evelyn's Garden is renowned for Chinese tapas where there are 100 dishes served on a round table.
V Point is the new location as they were at Tonnochy Towers before under a slightly different Chinese name.

The restaurant is spacious with round tables and tables for smaller groups.
The menu is digitalized which is good but the app they use isn't that smooth so it makes it difficult swiping the pages.

As well English Shepherds pie, the Chinese have Sheperds Purse!
Here were the dishes we had and it was surprising that the orange crispy eels were the most expensive dish despite being a starter.

It was definitely crunchy and boneless but couldn't taste any orange.
Next  were the lamb noodles which were rather bland and the noodles were too soft.

The cumin lamb fared better but the plate was just weird and asking for trouble as the lamb kept falling on to the table.

The sweet and sour prawns were quite nice, they were crunchy coated in batter which is quite different to corn flour.

Last but not least was the star of the show!
The assorted Xiaolongbao came in four fancy flavours: Basil, Fennel, Garlic and Original.
I was glad it was not truffle!!
Since they were flavoured, I didn't use the vinegar.
Imagine stir fried Thai minced pork with basil in a xlb and the fennel one just tasted like Northern Chinese fennel dumplings.

Will probably be back to try the Chinese Tapas.
