Honest
opinion:
TLDR
-
it’s
just
not
the
place
for
me
Hakkasan
Hanway
Place
is
recommended
by
Michelin,
but
not
recommended
by
me,
as
a
HKer.
Growing
up,
I
have
been
eating
DimSum
for
years.
Hakkasan’s
DimSum
is
more
of
a
“fusion”
of
Western
&
Asian
cuisine,
which
tastes
alright,
but
not
traditional
&
authentic.
Thus,
why
it
didn’t
appeal
to
me.
Tea
is
£4-8
(as
of
2023),
which
is
served
in
one
teapot
without
any
tea
leaves
inside.
Personally,
the
tea
tastes
quite
“watery”,
lacking
much
flavor.
Not
worth
the
price
for
drinking
“slightly
flavored
hot
water”.
Below
are
some
dishes
we
tried
+
feedback:
Grilled
Chilean
sea
bass
in
honey
(£58)
-
the
sea
bass
is
usually
served
with
sauces
still
dripping
off
of
it.
Yet,
the
sea
bass
is
rather
dry,
and
there
is
not
enough
sauce
to
give
it
that
extra
flavor.
Sweet
and
sour
Dingy
dell
pork
(£32)
-
no
complaints
there,
pretty
well
done,
would
actually
recommend
Black
truffle
roasted
duck
(£51)
-
one
of
my
favorites
among
the
rest
of
the
dishes,
would
recommend
Wok-fried
Yorkshire
Wagyu
beef
ho
fun
noodles
(£33)
-
as
someone
from
HK,
I
can
say
that
this
lacks
“wok-hey”,
and
the
beef’s
texture
is
a
bit
stiff.
Char
Siu
-
this
is
below
average
compared
to
the
Char
Siu
in
HK
-
as
the
pork
is
rather
lean
and
the
meat
is
dry.
In
HK,
we
usually
use
a
more
fatty
cut
of
meat,
which
gives
the
Char
Siu
a
more
fatty
&
soft
texture.
Plus,
we
serve
it
with
more
sauces
on
the
sides,
which
pairs
well
with
rice.
Tofu
claypot
(£24)
-
actually
not
bad,
would
recommend
Environment:
it
seemed
more
like
a
club
than
a
YumCha
place.
The
music
is
loud,
and
the
place
is
dark.
So
if
you’re
genuinely
there
for
traditional
YumCha,
I
don’t
think
this
is
a
good
place.
I’d
recommend
visiting
other
YumCha
places
in
Chinatown
if
you
want
a
more
authentic
&
traditional
taste
of
YumCha
for
a
much
cheaper
price.
