Mr Wei’s 15-12-16


  • Duck pancakes and soup
  • Honey black pepper and mustard mint fillet steak
  • Master cut baby egg plant
  • Yu xiang pork
  • Combined flavour fish
 
Attended by Andrew, Jim, John, Karen, Kim and Ron.

We asked to have the duck pancakes, since they are always so good and are presented so beautifully. They would only let us have the pancakes if we either had soup as a second course, or duck and rice. We chose the pancakes and soup option.
The pancakes were very good as always.
The fillet steak was satisfactory, with a really obvious mustard flavour.
 

The Yu xiang pork was nothing exciting. They could at least have given us enough buns so we could have one each.
The egg plant was outstanding as always.
The duck soup was a significant disappointment. Just a pile of duck bones in a flavourless, watery soup.
We were feeling let down by the bland attitude and also the lack of cheery service. This is not how we remember Mr Wei's from the past. The menu is also still the same as it has been from time immemorial.
The dessert menu is still boring and has also not changed. Since none of us felt inspired, we didn't order any.
I found the overall experience a big disappointment from what I had come to expect from past visits. I don't want to go back to Mr Wei's again.
