A Michelin-starred Chinese restaurant, Hakkansan, opened in Los Angeles. This week, I had an appointment with a friend to visit the store on the weekend, but it turned out that his house was not open on Sunday, so he couldn't make it. I happened to receive an invitation from the Chi Lin family. On Friday, I also specially pushed the company's original free dinner and came to Kirin at 9201 Sunset Street (how rich and tyrannical: D)

He felt full without entering the door. The red lacquered door, sliding the door into it, has a more Hollywood style, with a dark red tone and golden light. A beautiful foreman in a high fork cheongsam led the seat.

Looking around, the business is quite good and very lively.Most of them are foreigners, and the music is also very pub style.We were entertained by Mr. Zhou from Taiwan, who speaks English better than Mandarin.The wine list is thick, too lazy to take it, let Mr. Zhou recommend it.He came with a Curry Blossom-at first he didn't hear the name clearly and nodded and said okay, but later it was scared to death. . .curry? !

But it tastes great. Very fruity. It should have nothing to do with curry, vodka + cranberry fruit wine is just a bit like the color.

The first is a kale mushroom salad. Kale was sautéed with Chinese soy sauce, but it was a bit too salty. Mushrooms are very special. They are crunchy after being dehydrated. They look like fried but are actually healthy ~

The second course is a sampler of several appetizers. The fish-flavored eggplant slices on the left and the Korean barbecue scallion pancakes in the middle, don't look at their appearance, a small piece of things is very original-the eggplant with fish-flavored eggplant slices is crunchy eggplant slices topped with crispy flavor Eggplant, praise it. The combination of Korean barbecue scallion pancakes is also uninhibited. That pot sticker is more ordinary.

Lamb biscuits with sauerkraut.But the amount of minced mutton was so big that it didn't tell where the sauerkraut was.This dish feels too tender, from the inside out.But only in this way is it suitable for women with fashionable clothes. A cup of cocktail in the left hand and a small biscuits in the right hand can be delivered to the mouth while chatting-yes, you can also put various sauces, mustard and chili soy sauce.The yellow mustard is often spicy.Don't underestimate it.

Lobster spring rolls.It's very light so you can taste the umami of lobster-but I still can't help but dip in hoisin sauce.In particular, I ate a kind of vegetable similar to pickled cucumber (spiced radish), which was kind.

Large scallops with black pepper.The scallop itself is very large in size and processed very carefully. The outer skin is fried crispy, but the inside is extremely tender. It is guessed that the style of steak is similar to that after the skin is fried, the moisture of the scallop is locked (even the black pepper sauce is very steak style) ), the scallop itself is very fresh.Delicious~

Steamed cod fillets. Find the best dish. Very Q-jumpy and juicy, not the kind of cod that I just ate before was just tender and not stiff. It is estimated that there is also a small fried, but it has a steamed original flavor.

At this time, I was actually a bit full. What is commendable is that the taste of each dish is still very rich-the result is a sausage fried rice. . .Can't love anymore. . .

Chao fun

But when faced with the Peking duck, I felt my index finger moved.The taste is not too amazing, but you can eat such a delicious piece of duck in Hollywood.Those who have to pick out something that are not authentic will surely succeed. After all, it is not the same as the authentic Peking duck-not to mention, his menu says Hong Kong sliced ​​duck.

The sliced ​​duck did not taste a few mouthfuls and found that the combat effectiveness plummeted. After all, it is a greasy fragrance. If it is not so luxurious today, I may have tasted more delicious ducks.
Oh! And dessert. This litchi pudding is delicious. You can eat litchi pulp, positive!

Summary: Compared with the well-known Chinese food in the Liberated Area, it requires a lot of pricy.Mainly his weight is relatively small.But the dishes are exquisite and the atmosphere is full-it is a good choice to come with sisters for Friday Night to eat and drink; it is also possible to come with a group of friends for a small wine, supper, and snacks (the choice of drinks is more, the dishes are smaller; it closes at 12 on weekends); of course If you are being taken advantage of, then don’t worry about anything~
