About the menu

Step into the heart of the 'dragon’s lair', where steam rises, grills sizzle, and flavors erupt in an explosion of spice and smoke. Fire comes alive on the plate, each dish carrying a whisper of tradition and a roar of innovation.

The newly launched menu takes you through a sensory journey of the Tang Dynasty, showcasing some of the best Chinese, Sichuan and Japanese dishes. A royal fusion of flavours, the menu blends modern techniques with traditional Asian flavours bringing the dragon's magic to life through the Fire/Ice menu. Here are some of my favourites that I highly recommend you order:

-Dim Sums that Melt in Your Mouth – Soft, delicate, and bursting with flavor, these handcrafted delights are little parcels of perfection. Vegetarian and non-vegetarian options make the dim sums a must order. It's a burst of subtle yet well-rounded flavours, treating you palate to an umami flavour.

-Hibachi-Grilled Marvels – Kissed by the flames, these smoky delights turn simple ingredients into charred, caramelized poetry. Whether it's the simple yet fulfilling corn on the cobb or unique rice patties with sugarcane, it's a wonderful, smoky experience that leaves a delightful after taste.

- Jumbo Prawns– Big on flavour, succulent, briny, and perfectly seasoned, they bring the ocean’s bounty to your plate with an Asian twist. And is packed with freshness.

-Malaysian Lamb Rendang – A slow-cooked masterpiece bathed in coconut, spices, and heritage, telling the story of a thousand kitchens. Enjoyed with steamed rice, it's love on a plate which will have you craving for more.

-Buttermilk Chicken – Crisp on the outside, tender on the inside—this dish embraces comfort with a spicy, tangy kiss. It was a wonderful surprise with each bite hitting the spot in a refreshing way.

- The Sushi-boat - showcasing a wonderful array of sushi and sashimi featuring tuna, salmon and crab for the non-vegetarians while treating vegetarians to equally delectable options. Perfect for a family or group of friends to enjoy together.

Each bite is a journey through Asia, infused with Chef Sheong Wong’s signature touch—traditional recipes reimagined for the modern Indian palate.
