We had high hopes for Bo.lan as the wife and husband team had long been lauded for their authentic Thai cuisine with modern updates.

Unfortunately while the flavors were good, we didn't find it to be anything special. And the practice of serving 5 main courses together and having them turn cold before we could eat them was not to our liking.

The collaboration between Gaggan Anand and his "brother from another mother" Fukuyama "Goh" Takeshi - known as "Gohgan" - is always a fun and special affair. It takes place 2 or 3 times a year, and is an opportunity for the two chefs to create new dishes.

We flew to Bangkok to participate in the 7th edition of Gohgan a week before Christmas, and it was a Christmas party complete with decorations and Christmas music...

Lung King Heen has always been good but never great, catering more to tourists and people ticking off a list. Mom was visiting Hong Kong for the first time in years, so I took the parents out for an introduction.

As usual, the meal was decent but not really special the way a 3-star should be.
