East Delight

East Delight, a casual, trendy Chinese restaurant specialising in dim sum and other contemporary Cantonese dishes, is the latest dining creation from Tang’s Catering Group, one of the city’s prominent dining operators anchored by its East Ocean restaurant group, and an impressive one at that.

Located in a redeveloped basement shopping complex in Quarry Bay, East Delight caters to a younger, more casual clientele, paying tribute to the city’s artistic cultural roots. The restaurant’s entryway is draped in a painting with and calligraphic artwork from noted local Movie Posters Master Jimmy Keung.

East Delight is spacious, its décor is contemporary Chinese infused with classical design elements. The pleasant and well-appointed ambience makes for a relaxed setting to enjoy a sumptuous Cantonese meal.

We first tucked into a variety of dim sum and appetiser dishes. They included Chilled Cucumber w/ Chinese Vinegar ($38), Pickled Radish in Homemade Sauce ($38), a tasty and soft Deep-fried Diced Bean Curd($68), which is quite unusual and nice, and its popular Roasted Pork Belly($118).

For dim sum, we ordered a smattering of dishes including Steamed Rice Roll w/ Shrimp & Chives ($50), Steamed Minced Shrimp Dumpling ($16/piece), Steamed Scallops & Minced Pork Dumpling($18/piece), Pork Dumpling w/ Soup ($13/piece), Beef ball w/ Beancurd Sheet ($42), and Deep-fried Sticky Dumpling w/ Minced Pork ($16/piece) served in a cute birdcage

There are several chef-recommended dishes that we had to try. Braised Beef Cheek w/ White Radish ($148), in which the braised beef cheek meat is stuffed into a large white radish and cooked together is a signature dish. The radish keeps the meat tender and moist while the beef flavour permeates the radish. Another is Sautéed Prawn w/ Caramel

Crispy Longjing ($168), the longjing tea is caramelised to a crisp and sautéed with the succulent, large shrimp – an absolute delight. Another highly touted dish is Boston Lobster in Curry Sauce with E-fu Noodles ($298), a yummy, savoury dish that certainly impresses.

East Delight is a gastronomic delight. The restaurant offers excellent Cantonese food at reasonable prices in a comfortable setting. It’s a fine place for a hearty, casual meal or if you just want to enjoy a good dim sum lunch. Give it a try
