Water Margin @ Times Square, Hong Kong
During my previous visit, IT brought me to Water Margin @ Times Square in Causeway Bay for dinner. Water Margin specialises in Northern Chinese cuisine. She said that the Crispy Deboned Lamb Rack is absolutely delicious. I had to give them a try! She was right, the lamb was succulent with a fragrant and crispy exterior! This is definitely a MUST-TRY!
We also ordered a Szechuan Spicy Chicken dish. The dish was interestingly presented with a sea of Szechuan Peppers all over it and one had to rummage through the dish to look for the deep fried chicken pieces. Unfortunately during our visit, the chef must have forgotten to add salt and so the dish was pretty bland. IT was disappointed as its usually well done and very spicy. The waitress serving us noticed that we barely touched the chicken and asked if there was something wrong. We told her that it tasted bland, she offered to have it replaced but IT and I declined as we had quite a few other dishes anyway. I hope that this dish will taste better on our next visit.
We had also ordered a Wintermelon with Salted Egg Sauce. We didn't enjoy it as much as the tofu but it was reasonably tasty. The sauce was less salty (maybe because it has less salted egg) and oily. I loved how it was presented with a wooden spoon for us to use as a serving spoon.
