Bold and unexpected — the century egg salad greets your senses with glossy wedges of preserved egg, their translucent jelly-like whites shimmering around creamy yolks that carry a deep, mature richness. A bright, savory dressing of garlic, herbs and a touch of acid and spice brings a fresh lift, cutting through the yolk’s mellow intensity and giving the dish a lively balance. Each bite offers a fascinating contrast: the bouncy, springy “white,” the silky-soft yolk, the zing of aromatic garlic and chili, and a whisper of refreshing herbaceousness. Served cool, this salad is at once exotic and comforting — perfect as an elegant starter, a bold side, or a curious treat for those ready to explore traditional Chinese flavours with a modern twist.
Juicy prawns sizzle in fragrant garlic-infused oil, releasing an aroma that is both rich and inviting. A hint of chili adds gentle heat, perfectly balancing the natural sweetness of the seafood.

Ginger, garlic, green onion, and a mix of green, red, and dried chillies add fragrance and heat, finished simply with salt and white pepper for a rich, deeply satisfying bite.
Turkish Egg With Smoked Salmon is a brunch-style plate built around a garlicky Greek-yogurt base, topped with soft poached eggs and finished with smoked salmon and toasted bread.

This is a cold dish with multiple layers of flavour, perfect summer.
