Last week, Hubby treated me to a very nice lunch at The Han Room. It's Hubby's first visit here, but he was impressed with the food. I have been before when the restaurant newly opened last year (read review here).
We came after lunch peak hours, so no problems getting a table. We did notice that the restaurant was still very busy (and this, on a weekday - looks like it's very popular with the office crowd). Food service was very quick, we didn't have to wait very long for our appetizers to arrive.
Braised nuts (RM3) and Jasmine tea
I loved this dish on my previous visit, so I did not hesitate in ordering this again. The tangy flavours of the"Paku" vegetables with spicy sauce (RM8) certainly did its job in whetting our appetite. Even Hubby loved this!
And look what we found.. a heart-shaped onion ring ;)
We have heard some good things about the char siew here (BBQ pork), so we ordered a portion to try. The portion looks a little small, but it was sufficient for two of us to share. We felt it was pretty good too, but not as good as Toast & Roast. Quite juicy, nicely caramelised but a bit on the lean side. We wanted to try the siew yoke too, but changed our mind because I ordered too much. LOL.
BBQ Char Siew (RM16)
I ordered the Deep Fried Chicken Wing with Glutinous Rice (RM9) from the "Special Chef's Recommendation's menu section. A bit expensive for a single chicken wing, which is literally just a wing stuffed with glutinous rice. Crispy, but nothing special.
This very simple noodle dish which Hubby ordered turned out to be one of the best things we ate here. The braised egg noodle village style (RM24) had all the right ingredients needed for a great dish - good texture and good flavours. If I'm not mistaken, there wasn't even any meat in there but the stock, mushrooms, beancurd, greens and smooth noodles was enough to make this a winner. Would definitely reorder this again.
The garlic fried rice topped with foie! gras (RM25) has been on my to-try list, am glad that I got to try it out this time. The fried rice is simple but fragrant, and the foie was nice and rich.
They have a really huge menu here, still loads that I would love to return and try.
Verdict: Very tasty Chinese food, and fast service.
