Finally have time to finish this last part the of the first dinner of HK x TW 4 hands series, @mume_taiwan x Neighborhood. The meal reached climax when we were presented with a roasted baby goose which is the new signature at Mume. @richie_lin dry aged these local baby geese for a week and then prepared with both Chinese and Western techniques so that the skin is like Chinese Peking duck while the meat is like Western duck in medium rare state (as compared to Chinese roast duck...

When Mume just started 10 years ago, they used to have a la carte menu with a barley porridge dish with mushroom and egg. It has been long gone but brought back by David & Richie together in a very “Neighborhood” fashion - chicken offals as topping like his famous salt baked chicken rice! It made so much sense as chicken & offals in Taiwan are so fresh and quality is extremely high. From chicken heart, testicle, crown, gizzard and tails (2! 😍) all cooked in chicken jus, we had a bit of everything... More

Hong Kong and Taiwan are two of the first places that closed the borders and opened last due to pandemic. Chefs in HK and TW have always had very close knit and it was the time to reunite as friends for a 3-day 3 four-hand dinner series in Taiwan. The restaurants are :

Chairman, Neighborhood & Vea from HK, & Mume, Le Beaujour & JL Studio from TW.

1st collaboration meal was held at MUME in Taipei where chef Richie and David Lai cooked together for the first time. But their history started a decade... More

#tbt to favorite crab moment last year.
竟然有叻沙生拆蟹粉😍😍😍 差唔多就來俾鄉愁擊潰既偽姐弟兩人即刻又充滿電啦!Don’t we all love a nice surprise? Holy crab goodness with laksa spices. Stunning yellow croaker. Favorite drunken quail. Succulent pigeon. Different versions of “ Asian potato” collected from a few visits. Over the top dungeness crab and trout roe starter. Marinated tomatoes and ginger curd that I couldn’t get enough of. Incredibly...

Seriously. WOW!!! When @notsoearnest doesn’t shy away from his least favorite ingredients, as lucky diners we get this stunning yamaimo and okra caviar with miso burnt cream, glamoured up with truffle. Drunken quail, gorgeous rendition of the classic Cantonese steamed fish, drool worthy slow roasted Taiwanese kurobuta pork glazed with balsamic vinegar and shiso paste served with bagna cauda( so happy my friend was full and gave me half of her dish). Koji mousse with longan, jack fruit... More

So impressed that I went back 3 more times!!!
Kegani and all its goodness topped with freshest Taiwanese trout roe( stripped in the restaurant) lightly marinated in sake and soy sauce. 潤餅 popiah inspired eel wrap has the most satisfying flavor and texture combination that I still can’t stop thinking about. Bonito sashimi with Taiwanese pesto, accompanied by galangal and watercress then finished beautifully with cream and dill oil. Prickly ash smoked Taiwanese trout and manjack pesto is choke... More

A solid meal from Mume in Taipei.

European cuisine with local ingredients. Well executed.

Outstanding dish was the grouper which was cut quite thick but cooked to perfection in an aromatic broth which provided enough aciddity to create a prefect balance. The grouper was cooked so the flakes were still glassy and came off easily.
The short rip was rare but eough cooked so it did not become chewy and had a very good flavour on the palate.

The place is small, the table narrowly spaced, so... More
