This bar is recommended to Chinese cuisine lovers. Don't forget to taste good dumplings, Dim sum and prawns at Typhoon Shelter. In accordance with the reviewers' opinions, the service is terrific. The quiet ambiance will be a good addition to appetizing food and excellent location of this place. But on Facebook, this spot hasn't achieved a high rating.

Few checks

Service – Pretty amazing (Mashrit)
Cost – a little heavy on the pocket
Seating – huge groups
Staff – trained and friendly
Some dishes to try:
Tuna Tartar – Zhenjiang vinaigrette, mixed cress, flying fish roe, cured yolks and shallots. Beautiful presentation and as I tasted raw fish for the first time ever, i pretty much liked it.
Wild mushroom and edamame dumpling – they topped it with water chestnut to give it a crispy texture. It has truffles and finger millet skin
Har Gau dimsum – Prawns, bamboo shoot, asparagus and dried corn blossom. Their in house sauces went pretty well with the dimsums.
Numb Numb Chicken – slow cooked chicken with sichuan corn. It was delicious, the chicken was cooked properly and the sauces in it just enhanced the taste
Typhoon shelter turnip cake – I highly recommend this vegetarian dish. Loved it. It is served with grandmama’s chilli relish and pickled radish.
Typhoon 8 pomfret – The best dish of the lunch, de-boned pomfret (arabian bay pomfret), sweetened soy and bird’s eye chilli. Trust me, you will fall in love with this dish. The fish is deep-fried.
Seafood fried rice – it has lobster (if available, or else they serve prawns) and scallop. You can have the rice even without any gravy as it is not so dry. Do eat it with the in house sauces.
Luna – It is a dessert. A mango sticky rice pudding, with a hint of caramel sauce, stuffed inside a sugar ball. Chinese culture, festivals and ancient Chinese astronomy all pay tribute to the moon. Luna is a tribute to the Lunar festival, where people gather in Chinatown to celebrate with dragon dances, and crackers that light up the sky. They claim that this dessert will make your taste buds sing.
