Sample the seasonal spring delights at Dragon Noodles Academy
If you're celebrating spring this month, Hong Kong-style, look no further than Dragon Noodles Academy in Central, which has created innovative new dishes and two new cocktails to up its seasonal offerings.
The light and bright menu items include toasted coconut corn cob (HK$59), presented in lollipop-like form with a coating of coconut flakes; marinated winter melon in blueberry sauce (HK$69), in which the melon balls are dipped in blueberry sauce and presented like a bunch of grapes; and baby cabbage florets with ham (HK$129).
New to the menu are three specially created dim sum offerings: the crispy lobster puff (HK$79 per piece), which is a crunchy roll of lobster pastry painted with carrot juice to resemble a plump lobster tail; steamed shrimp dumplings (HK$59 for three pieces); and steamed crab and shrimp dumplings (HK$65 for three pieces).
And don't forget the seasonal cocktails, either. The Easter Bunny (HK$119) comprises Pimm's, orange, cucumber and strawberry topped off with refreshing lemonade, while the Spring Blessings (HK$119) is composed of Malibu rum, banana, milk and white chocolate and is topped with soft marshmallows. Happy Easter – and happy eating!
