Despite being in Hanghau quite often, I haven't had time to try this but since this restaurant has been there for a year now and the queues have gone I finally decided to go.
It is located on the corner near Marks and Spencer and Muji.
The decor is modern yet with a twist of old school elements to it.
Obviously they specialize in casseroles aka Chinese claypot dishes.
There were two rice pot dishes that got my attention because of the creativity and simply it would taste quite different served in a pot.
The hainan chicken which is normally served in a plate was presented in a casserole.
The chicken and pickles were laid on top.
In terms of taste, it was super hot and the rice had more flavours because of the constant heat from the casserole forces aroma in it while you are eating. I loved the pickles as well as they were tart and not sweet like other restaurants.
The other rice pot had a Japanese twist to it, the rice for this one was more al dente so I liked it and there was a lovely matcha fragrance infused in every grain of rice but not too overpowering.
As well as the eel, there were dried Sakura shrimps which came it a crunch and briny flavour.
The eel was delicate and sweet brushed with Teriyaki sauce.
Last but not least was the traditional fermented red bean curd vegetable casserole.
This was the best fermented red beancurd vegetable casserole I have had as it was not sweet or oily and the red bean curd was strong.
It might be a bit strong for others but I think this is how it should taste.
