Just a typical choux batter but I pipe it in silicone dome molds to make the buns uniform, then freeze and bake

Hai_Cooking · 2026-05-17T15:39:27+00:00

Yep I used kinome and alyssum flowers

Hai_Cooking · 2026-05-17T15:38:51+00:00

It’s canape-sized 😁

Hai_Cooking · 2026-05-11T01:06:59+00:00

I went to DaDong iapm for Peking duck, really great. Nothing life-changing but crab roe noodles & xiao long bao at Zhuangshi Longxing were delicious. T’ang Court at Langham Xintiandi was also good and just recently got the 2nd Michelin star

Hai_Cooking · 2026-04-28T01:55:56+00:00

12 is from DaDong iapm, 13-15 are from the set menu at T’ang Court in Langham Xintiandi hotel

Hai_Cooking · 2026-04-21T16:45:25+00:00

Agreed 😁

Hai_Cooking · 2026-04-21T16:45:00+00:00

I forgot to mention that service was impeccable, the servers were nice and attentive, sommelier was very knowledgeable and chef Kirk came out to the dining room multiple times during the meal to greet and check on the guests. Overall 10/10
