Chef Tan Highland Park 蜀湘门第

💥 Chef Tan East Village Shuxiangmendi 📍 37 St Marks Pl, New York, NY 10003 🕙Monday to Sunday 11:30-22:00 💰40 dollars per person An antique Chinese restaurant located in the East Village, the cuisine mainly features a fusion of Hunan and Sichuan cuisine. I first heard about their restaurant from my friends in Jersey. Now that it has opened in the Isle of Man, I have to try to check in. The store is located on the corner of the street. The design and decoration are antique and modern, especially the bonfire-shaped wall, which is matched with the fire pattern shape, which is very unique. The waitress is also very enthusiastic and will help introduce the signature features of the store. Their seats are all leather, soft and comfortable to sit on, and the dining experience is also very good. They just opened and don’t have a formal menu yet. They launched a tasting menu. I thought it was a lunch set menu when I saw the menu, but it turned out to be a normal portion of dishes, $11.95 per portion, great value for money. The new store is open for 12% off, and you can exchange for a portion of black fungus for one dollar. 🍽Brother Tan’s Pickled Cabbage and Live Fish🍽 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The signature must-order item in the store is made with fresh live fish. Each piece of fish meat maintains the perfect thickness and fresh taste. The fish fillet is scalded with hot oil to stimulate the aroma of the seasoning. The fish meat is slightly curled, and each chopstick is full of smoothness. The pickled cabbage soup base is sour and refreshing. Take a bite before the meal and you will feel your appetite is whetted. Pour a spoonful of fish soup into the rice, stir the rice and sour soup evenly, it is fragrant and sour 🍽Smoked tripe shreds🍽 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A classic representative of Hunan cuisine, it has a relatively high requirement for the heat. The tripe shreds must be fried until they are tasty, but they must also maintain a smooth and tender taste and not be overcooked. They perfectly present both. The amount of tripe shreds is also sufficient, and each chopstick is a slightly crispy tripe shreds, a main dish that goes well with rice 🍽Osmanthus sugar lotus root🍽 🌟🌟🌟🌟 You need something sweet after the meal, especially after the spicy stir-fry, the cool and slightly sweet osmanthus sugar lotus root is very refreshing, and it is also full of summer flavor. Their sweet osmanthus sauce is a plus, sweet but not greasy, the lotus root tastes crispy and lacks some softness 🍽Sizzling squid shreds🍽 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Theirsizzling squid shreds feel different from the traditional sizzling method, this one is more like stir-frying, not like the sizzling sauce flavor of sizzling, the squid shreds are still sufficient, the taste is also relatively crispy, and the seasoning 🍽Spicy chicken🍽 🌟🌟🌟 This dish is slightly inferior to other dishes. It feels that the flour coating of spicy chicken is relatively thick, and the seasoning of chicken is added with bean paste, which will dominate the taste and weaken the crispness and spicyness of the spicy chicken itself
