Mushroom Cake is palatable and not oily. There are four pieces of
sliced mushroom on top of potato mash. The base is a piece of bread in
circular shape.
'Braised Ox-Tongue' should be one of the signature dishes. But it is a bit too tender this time. It is average only.
'Chicken
in Sauce of Plum and Wine' is one of the signature dishes. The sauce is
very flavorful, it is not commonly available in other restaurants. If
the chicken is bought from the Mainland China instead of in Hong Kong,
it must have attained full marks.
Fried Jumbo Prawn w/ Soya Sauce. Each piece should have about 8 inches in length.
The meat is very bouncy and good in taste. It should be eaten with
knife and fork, or it would not difficult to handle the meat by
chopsticks. It is also needed to cut into smaller pieces.
'Fried Kale w/ Ginger Sauce' is vividly green in colour. Together with
ginger sauce and the sophisticated cooking skill, this simple dish
becomes an outstanding one.
Signature Fried Rice is a must to order . We have nothing to comment, but continue to finish in silence.
Almond Puree is served at free. It does not mean that the quality is
not good. It is in fact a quality sweet soup. I am willing to pay $35
for this free dessert.
Assorted Fruits are complimentary as well. All fruits are strictly selected, they are fresh, juicy and naturally sweet.

Celebrity Cuisine is one of the Chinese restaurants we are eager to
have a try in Central and Sheung Wan. We make reservation in advance,
for fear that we cannot reserve a table for tonight.
It
is a small sized Chinese restaurant in a hotel, but its decoration is
very chinesed and impressive. Before any dish is ordered, we are
delighted to have selected this restaurant for our dinner. It gives us a
very positive impression. Servers are trained and very polite, but may not be professional enough. We are already contented with the service we have.
We
have five persons tonight and ordered six dishes, dessert and fruit are
complimentary. Though Celebrity Cuisine is appraised with high rating,
it is not a must that all dishes would have top quality. Generally
speaking, most of the dishes should have above average quality and
are savory. This is the target or result we are looking for. Besides,
average spending is comparatively higher than normal. This has to be
prepared. You are highly suggested to have a try in Celebrity Cuisine.
If not, it would not be a Michelin one-starred restaurant in 2009.
