00:00 Who doesn't love Chinese cuisine?

00:01 We know we do, and if you're like us,

00:03 drop by China Blue to try award-winning chef Jeremy Leung's special set menu

00:08 available only until July 23.

00:10 The Hong Kong-born chef uses techniques and ingredients

00:13 from different parts of China, and we were blown away by every course.

00:17 We were first served two appetizers in a plate,

00:19 lobster marinated in coriander lime jelly that's zingy and tangy

00:23 and deep-fried kataifi with a stuffing of seafood otak-otak.

00:27 Next is soup.

00:28 This was super earthy thanks to matsutake mushrooms

00:31 and double-boiled mary fruit, a local fruit from Guangdong.

00:34 It also had peach gum, sea cucumber, dry moon clam,

00:37 and a black chicken dumpling for a mix of taste and textures.

00:41 First, sea garupa that chef Jeremy salts for a couple of hours

00:45 to make it meatier in texture,

00:46 then steams with sun-dried ginger, red chili, which was surprisingly subtle,

00:50 black bean paste, and superior chicken stock we'd slurp by the bowl if we could.

00:55 The star of the set is the slow-cooked beef made with boneless short ribs.

00:59 This was super smoky in aroma and insanely tender.

01:02 We'll just let the video do the talking.

01:04 Plus points for the super tender radish.

01:07 It ain't an Asian meal without rice,

01:09 and ours had black sesame, dried scallops, spring onions, and egg white pearl.

01:13 To close the meal, they served hawthorn ice cream,

01:16 yup, that's the stuff hawflicks are made of,

01:18 with Chinese sweet vinegar caramel and an onion pancake for a savory contrast.

01:23 This is only available until Sunday, July 23 at China Blue in Conrad, Manila.

01:27 Don't miss it.
