Located at the latest lifestyle complex H Code, PIIN is a new and late-night wine restaurant where features a spacious yet private, modern and elegant interior. A highlight goes to their bar displaying a large selection of whiskeys and fine wines.
Our dinner menu was a PIIN’s signature combining playful Chinese dishes with a list of wine. To start, we had a restaurant’s signature cold abalone served with plum sauce. It was served upon a bed of dried ice to manipulate a smoky effect, while the abalone is tender and I loved the sweet homemade plum sauce.

Next, we had a really well-seasoned stir-fried fish noodle with sliced abalone.

The double-boiled soup is served adorably in a teapot, cooked with healthy Chinese ingredients such as conch and Chinese mushroom; the clear broth is intensively flavoured, sweet and well balanced.

My favourite goes to the crispy chicken that is deboned and served with a few pieces of fried fish skin. The meat is super juicy and tender, the chicken skin is so crispy. This is highly recommended.

Last but not least, we had the signature cigar duck roll. It was made with fine pastry and packed with shredded braised duck meat, dipped with roasted kale to imitate the part of a real cigar. The dipping hoisin sauce comes along, however, is a tad too sweet for me.

Finally, we rounded up with a wok-fried black garlic fried rice as well as a homemade chocolate dessert filled with coconut flakes filling, inspired by Hong Kong people’s favourite cocktail buns (雞尾包)!
