Lung Yuan Chinese Restaurant

Lung Yuan has become my family's favorite restaurant since I was in elementary school. We used to celebrate our family members' birthday there. Yet, since it changed its chef few years ago, we were quite disappointed and kind of forgetting this memorable restaurant. All of sudden, I remembered this restaurant again last month when I was at Tunjungan Plaza, which is located beside Sheraton Hotel.


It provides classic Chinese food options with a modern interpretation. We ordered our all-time-favorite menus, which are shark fin soup, Szechuan-style tiger prawn, Vietanemese sautéed beef with garlic and onion, and baby snaps with salted fish. Shark Fin soup was light and fresh, and thus I still had a "big room" for other main courses.

To me, baby snaps with salted fish was the best! The snaps were crunchy and a little bit spicy as well. You have to eat it together with the salted fish so that all of the flavors will just perfectly combine together in your mouth.

We were surprised with the fact that they actually tasted delicious. From a short conversation with the restaurant's manager, he explained that the restaurant had struggled previously because of the change of its chef. Fortunately, it had managed to find the new chef that could match the customers' tastes and preferences. So, Lung Yuan will be included in my family's favorite restaurants list again for sure! Cheers! 🎀
