The quality is guaranteed to a certain extent. The skin of the crispy roast pork is very crispy and crumbly. The ingredients are more lean and less fat, and a little bit of sugar is just right. The must-order dish, green mushrooms, royal scallops and shrimp balls, has plump scallops, which are huge and satisfying. It's no wonder that consumers order it for just over a hundred yuan. The skin of the roasted chicken is also well handled. I peeled off the skin and ate it without eating the meat. The chicken tastes lighter and needs to be coated with sea salt. The scallop and wild mushroom dumplings are also filled with scallops, but I tasted a slightly alkaline taste that I didn't like. The steamed chicken feet, peach gum and snow lotus seeds stewed papaya, and mango sago are all impeccable.

Check in at Michelin Cantonese cuisine. We went there early (noon on a weekday). There were still some empty seats when we arrived, but they were full soon~ [Environment] Although the indoor layout is a bit crowded, there are floor-to-ceiling glass windows in the lobby~ [Service] The staff are quite busy~ [Taste] The dishes taste good, |Star barbecued pork^ must be ordered by every table~ |Fresh shrimp crispy rice rolls^ I like it very much, it's delicious~
This restaurant, Xiyue No. 8, is located on Nanjing East Road, and the transportation is more convenient than the old restaurant on Runan Street. If you order chrysanthemum, Pu'er, fragrant tea, etc., you will be charged 8 yuan per person, and water is the same price. Takeaway is free. Probably because of the set meal, the dishes were served quickly, and the table was basically full in fifteen minutes... The surface of the pepper and salt seven-flavor tofu was crispy; the crispy salad shrimp balls were large, with some mustard added in them; the crispy roast pork king had distinct layers, but this was the third crispy skin, which looked a bit like Kamen. Among the snacks, the scallop siu mai king was average, but the scallop and wild mushroom dumplings were good, with elastic skin and fresh fillings. The choy sum egg white fried rice was a large portion, and the ingredients were simple, but it was fried very fragrantly. The old Hong Kong milk jelly tasted very similar to the one I had in Hong Kong, with a full milky flavor.
Breaking news, Xiyue No. 8 has opened a new store on the Bund! ! There is also Light and Salt in the same building, and the location has become much more upscale. For me, it is close enough to eat at a corner. Regardless of how shining its 20-meter halo is, I love the affordable food that can be enjoyed at such high-quality Hong Kong-style flavors for less than 100 yuan per person. The tea fee is 8 yuan per person, and my friends in the same group said it was cheap. Looking at the price of dim sum on the menu, it can really be described as affordable. So don't be picky about whether it deserves the Michelin title. After eating, touch your conscience and decide whether it is worth it. The environment is nostalgic Shanghai style, and the leather sofa shows the style. The downside is that the interior decoration smells a bit pungent. The black pork barbecue pork is limited to four servings per day. I didn't get it, so I have to hurry up next time. There is no lava bun either, and I feel a little disappointed that I want to eat it but can't. [Crispy Roast Pork King] The char siu was sold out, so I ordered this dish as a second choice. It tasted good, the skin was crispy, and there was a layer of fat in the middle. It didn't feel greasy, and the meat fragrance filled my mouth. The shrimp dumplings tasted amazing! [Xiyue Shrimp Dumplings] I didn't expect that the most common shrimp dumplings in Hong Kong-style dim sum could be so delicious and unforgettable. The shrimp meat was large and plump, very elastic and chewy. The key is that the price is conscientious and fair, and I have to give it a good review. The rice noodle rolls and chicken feet were average, the bird's nest egg tarts were a bit average, the pastry was not crispy enough, and the egg tarts didn't have much milk flavor.
Located on the 5th floor of No. 139 Nanjing East Road, Xiyue No. 8 is a Michelin two-star Cantonese restaurant. If you book a private room, you can only choose a set menu, not a la carte. The minimum price of the set menu is 388 yuan per person, including 8 dishes - one cold dish, one soup or stew, four hot dishes (2 seafood + 1 beef + 1 vegetarian dish), one staple food and one dessert. Each dish is one person, no need to pick up the dishes, the portion is not large, but it is enough to fill you up. People with a big appetite may need to add dishes! There is a waiter in each private room, and the service is really good. You can bring your own drinks. The largest private room can seat 12 people. Personally, I think the price of dishes in the private room is relatively high. Next time I have the opportunity, I will choose to eat in the hall and order dishes freely. I feel satisfied overall!
With the title of "people-friendly", it has been on the Shanghai Michelin two-star list for two consecutive years The old store is on Runan Street. I accidentally discovered that a new store had opened in the city, so I decided to go there Opposite the Daimaru Department Store on Nanjing East Road, in the "Bund.Central" building with the Jordan logo The place is not big, and I made an appointment more than a week in advance The dishes of the two stores are slightly different, but I am generally satisfied and the trip is worthwhile Most of them are compact leather sofa seats, various picture frames on the wall, retro lighting, and a balcony, with an old Shanghai atmosphere Courteous service, dim sum is three pieces per serving, especially suitable for three people, tea is 8 yuan per person, unlimited refills "Xiyue Shrimp Dumpling" ¥28, crystal clear skin, crisp appearance, and plump shrimp and bamboo shoots inside, one bite is not enough "Scallop and Wild Mushroom Dumpling" ¥28, spinach juice skin, fresh and plump scallops inside, with a strong mushroom flavor Endless aftertaste "Steamed chicken feet"¥28 The chicken feet are stewed until soft and tasty. They are not outstanding among the snacks, but are of normal level "Crispy spring rolls with shredded chicken"¥20 This is the first time I have tried spring rolls with shredded chicken. They are definitely worthy of the name of "crispy spring rolls". The spring roll wrappers are cut diagonally without falling apart. The knife skills are amazing "Golden lava buns"¥20 The wrappers are thin and fluffy, the lava is overflowing, the custard and egg yolk blend together, delicate and soft, rich and sweet "Crispy shrimp rice rolls"¥38 It has a bit of a golden net feel. The rice rolls are thin and soft, and the fillings are crispy and tender "Crispy roast pork"¥88 The presentation and appearance are both OK. The skin of the roast pork is not thick and hard enough, and it can't bring hardness, only crispness. The roast pork itself is soft. Eat it while it's hot. It will be greasy when it's cold "Abalone sauce and sea cucumber risotto"¥88 The thick abalone sauce permeates every grain of fragrant rice It is mixed with precious sea cucumber, chicken, asparagus, mushrooms and carrots. It has a sticky texture. The color of the soy sauce seems ordinary, but it tastes quite good. "Old Hong Kong Milk Jelly" ¥28. Silky smooth and just the right sweetness. It is exactly the same as what I had at "Lily House". Rice porridge "Date Paste Swan Pastry" ¥28. Cute and realistic swan shape. Thousand-layer pastry texture. It contains plump date paste filling. It is sweet. Recommended for those who love red dates Lunch starts at 11:00 and dinner starts at 17:30. It is necessary to make an appointment in advance
Last night, I suddenly wanted to try the new store at No. 8 Xiyue, so I called its reservation number at nearly 22 o'clock with a one-in-a-million hope, and I was super lucky to get Sunday lunch~~ Lirong Crispy Goose: The crispy goose I wanted to eat had to be reserved three days in advance, so I had to try this unusual dish instead. After all, I have eaten a lot of lirong duck, but this is my first time eating lirong goose. From the finished product, the production process is basically the same as lirong duck. The frying temperature is good, but the presence of goose meat is not strong, which is not a very outstanding improved version. Scallop Wild Mushroom Dumpling: Like its shrimp dumplings, it is full and sweet, full of original flavor. It tastes just right, but it is not too amazing. But if you look back and compare it with other restaurants, the difference is immediately obvious, and the goodness of this place is immediately obvious! Century Egg and Spotted Rice Noodle Rolls: This combination has a fresh and fresh atmosphere, without any fireworks, which is really rare. Crispy BBQ pork buns: The crispy skin on the outside is really perfect, but I always feel that it is a little inconsistent with the BBQ pork filling. If it is changed to other sweet fillings, it seems to be more compatible. I wonder if black biscuits will work~_^ Beef tongue with braised sauce: Black pepper is the perfect supporting role, and the overall seasoning is great. The ox tongue is not just tender, but has a crisp and elastic taste, which is obviously more suitable for the braised sauce method. Vermicelli with scallop and minced meat: The most rare thing is that it is not greasy~ Steamed chicken with red dates and lotus leaves: The chicken is not only tender and smooth, but also very flavorful. The sweet taste is vaguely a bit of the local style~~ Abalone sauce sea cucumber risotto: The price-performance ratio is unbeatable, the delicious taste, plus the full portion, no wonder it is called a must-order for every table. For the last dessert, I ordered coconut purple rice cake and old Hong Kong milk jelly this time, which is a bit mediocre. By the way, the service of the new store is definitely praised, which is much better than Runan Street and Yuebanya. Three friends sat at the same table, eating till they ate and took some away, the average price per person was over 210, which still maintained Xiyuejia's usual affordable consumption level.
