I'm enjoying a weekend dinner here with a friend. The food is still delicious, although it is a little salty.Fried heng hua mee hoon remains one of my favorites, must eat if I visit this Michelin restaurant.

Michelin 5 stars restaurant. Decided to give it a try. Located in the garden mall, parking can be hard during weekends.

Went during lunch time, didt take too long for the wait, service is great. The staff are very friendly.

The food is good but not as I expected, maybe I have very high expectations for it. The price is quite pricey though.

Overall experience, maybe just treat it as a normal restaurant you will feel more satisfied

This restaurant has a huge menu to go with its huge reputation. First time here though I have been several times to the one at One U.

Unfortunately several fails here:
- no round table. Chinese cuisine for 10 pax doesn't work!
- staff service attitude is bad given the Michelin status. If they are trying to emulate the snobbish 3 star Michelin service, they have succeeded. But it doesn't go down well here.
- service that is kopitiam standard; they had us passing dishes from one end of the table to the other. 🤦

Fortunately, a few dishes from their set menu managed to it impressed; the steamed fish, the stir fried spinach, the lor mee, the crispy skin chicken.

But some failed miserably as well; the 3 cup chicken (hardly any chicken inside), the white fungus dessert (so basic and cheap).

Honestly, I was expecting a lot more from this restaurant.

My second time in Putien but first try in this branch located in The Gardens Mall, ordered their 8 pax set meal A (RM738) which come with 3 starters, 1 soup, 3 seafoods, 1 chicken, 1 vege, 1 main course (we choose fujian seafood loh mee) and 1 dessert each. The sweet and sour pork is ordered ala carte.

First impression when come to the starters, all 3 taste good but you might be surprised by its small portion (it is a starter for a reason i guess haha).

The PUTIEN Bian Rou Soup, it just like mini delicate wanton inside the soup. Very special and nice.

Both the eel dishes executed perfectly, good texture and not overcooked and as usual for their seasoning is always on point.

For the deep fried squirrel fish, this is my favourite dish as the knife work make it so easy to consume without any messy bone work to be done xD fresh and tender meat as expected.

Next for claypot chicken in fermented red rice wine, the sauce consistency is quite concentrated yet it taste just nice, not a fan of chicken so I just try one piece and is quite good haha

Stir fried kailan with beancurd skin with light and subtle taste after all the heavy dishes. Same goes for Fujian Seafood Loh Mee, very light and comforting.

The only complain I have is with the dessert..is toooooo sweettttttt!!! We need to add our chrysanthemum tea to balance out the sweetness for god sake 😅 hope they can take note of this as I still wish to keep both of my legs T.T

Overall a good experience and recommended for sure ;)
