TRULY MUNCHY IN LONDON - HAKKASAN HANWAY PLACE


A MUST TRY WHILE IN LONDON !!
When in search for Chinese food- Dim Sum or Good Chinese dishes, do add this to your list !!
A plus is that it is located near the Tottenham Court Station, which is also close to the shopping district in Central London :)
Moreover it is Michelin Starred ! 

DIM SUM:  
( Advisable to have a taste of their dim sum for lunch
 - to make your delicious meal enjoyable, satisfying yet affordable )
The dim sum at Hakkasan beats most chinese restaurants in London and is comparable to best dim sums found in Asia.

Dim Sum Platter -
 Truly Munchy recommends this - will not disappoint :) 

Xiao Long Bao

Congee 

Liu Sha Bao , Custard Buns - 
A great dim sum dessert to end your meal


 DINNER AT HAKKASAN:
( do note that dinner at this Michelin starred restaurant can get a little pricey )
However the dishes tasted so nice, really did make Truly Munchy miss home incredibly and was definitely worth the price.

Black Pepper Rib Eye Beef

Seabass with mushrooms - the fish was cooked amazingly well 

Cocktails at Hakkasan are a little expensive, but their concoctions are worth trying. 
Truly Munch recommends trying one of their cocktails :) 

                                                 * NOTE :  Do remember to reserve a table!

The service was great and you have to book to secure a table at this really busy restaurant.

-But a heavier fish is not a nicer fish !! )
