Har gau, which is available either in a traditional bamboo basket or in orchid soup, was wrapped in a paper-thin pastry to protect the firm and succulent shrimp within. The seafood dumpling was topped with slices of crisp asparagus and a dollop of orange roe for interesting textural contrasts. The deliciously gooey sauce with chicken feet was worth slurping down on its own.

Yet the hands-down show stopper was the goose and radish puff. Meticulously crafted to resemble miniature swans, each was covered in sesame seeds. It seemed a shame to ruin them, but they didn't exactly fit into my mouth with a single bite. The pastry was flaky, the radish was a perfect balance between sweet and savory, and the overall taste was pure satisfaction.
