Joyden Canton (HillV2)

I always come back for this when I visit Joyden. Mix up all the ingredients to get a light tasting Vermicelli that is very comforting to eat.

Have you ever come across traditional soups that are served in a coconut? The last time I had was during a trip to Guangzhou.

Indeed a Guangdong or Cantonese favourite, to have this traditional Foshan classic served in this manner, with a selection of Chinese herbs. Double-boiled directly in the coconut, the refreshing coconut juice and meat, blends together with the nourishing goodness of the herbs adding a hint of natural sweetness. Of course you can also have a taste of some cooked coconut flesh. Feels really healthy, but it might be an acquired taste as a boiled coconut might not be of a familiar taste.

Super tender and well-marinated chicken. Somehow, can almost taste subtle hints of rose in the chicken? Really enjoyed this dish and the generous portion was worth it for $18.

Finally tried one of the Joyden concepts restaurant and I am very impressed by their dishes! Not one of the commonly reviewed dishes, the golden thread crispy prawn is well fried, not too oily and has delicious crispy shreds enhances the fried prawns with creamy, sweet and salty flavours. Not exactly sure what are the threads made of, but seem to have a hint of pumpkin or salted egg yolk.

Some dishes tastes fine
But I tried the Ee Fu noodles was hard.. not simmered soft enough.
The poach vegetables with 3 types of eggs.. The taste 🤔.
We tried the pork ribs also.. it has an Orange skin taste something different
Egg white with scallop with bee hoon was good 👍🏻
And the Roast Pork was Super crispy 👍🏻

We can cook it at home in a Thermomix but we are tired or to put it nicely, we are researching how others do it. The 'Michelin star' version has a herby aroma which we liked the most. This version is quite good too! So tender and aromatic.
