Lu Gang Xiao Zhen by The Asian Kitchen

As a roast pork lover, I was intrigued to try out this place when I saw a picture of their roast pork on their menu. The review is below. Also found out that this place is also mostly Taiwan food therefore went to try it out. Have a read below on the dishes I had. Sorry I don't have most of the prices for the dish because I misplaced the receipt and their website is quite lousy because their menu do not have the prices to the dish and they do not have pictures of their dishes.


Village Tofu

Comments:  The starch is slightly salty and thick but you can't go wrong with tofu. It still taste nice but the portion is quite small. Serving it in a claypot also keeps the dish warm.


Fried Glass Noodles

Comments: Quite a refreshing and nice dish. Easy to eat but not much ingredients in it.


Oyster Mee Sua $8.90

Comments: Quite salty and not quite the same as those in Taiwan. A very small portion for $8.90. Not worth it


Guitar Duck and Roast Pork Combo

Comments: The meat is slightly fat, moist but the skin of both the duck and the pork could be more crispy.


Crispy Duck Roll

Comments: This is quite good although could be quite filling. The duck inside is moist and soft and the roll is crisp.


Prawn Paste Chicken

Comments: Normal. Chicken was quite tender


Lemon Sliced Fish

Comments: The fish was fresh and the lemon gives a nice citrus taste to the dish.

Overall Review: In all honesty, this place is a nice cosy place to have dinner, but the downside of having it in ION Orchard means that during dinner time there would be this never-ending queue, plus the dishes would be expensive and their serving really small. The food is not that fantastic to die for also. There are other places that money could be more well spent. Their website is also not done up properly. So I'm not really gonna recommend this place to my readers out there.

Details of the place: 2 Orchard Turn #B3-22 Ion Orchard
