Yihao Gongguan, a Chinese Restaurant in Phnom Penh, Cambodia: Second Visit

I went back to Yihao Gongguan.

Entrance

The reason I ended up at such a fancy restaurant again was that this business trip went well… and when you want to celebrate, you go to a good restaurant. So this time the menu was different from last time, too.

Appetizer

Decoration

Chandelier

Looks great.

Stir-fried wood ear mushrooms

A simple start.

Shark fin soup

A nice bowl for protecting your stomach.

Today’s main, Ise-ebi (spiny lobster)

I think this might be the pinnacle of luxury seafood.

Fish dish

Stir-fried chicken

Lamb chops

These lamb chops were really good.

Stir-fried meat

Seems like a Cantonese dish.

Some kind of dish…

I can’t quite remember what it was…

Roast pigeon

This roast pigeon had a crispy skin similar to Peking duck, it was seasoned just right, and it was so delicious. It got rid of my prejudice against pigeon. This place really knows what it’s doing.

A platter of sashimi

No joke…

Stir-fried water spinach

Gotta eat vegetables too

Soft-shelled turtle

You can’t have a celebration without soft-shelled turtle.

Dessert

This one was a bit ordinary… I feel like all Chinese desserts are pretty similar.

Congee made with Ise-ebi

It cured my hangover automatically.

The work went well and I’m leaving after being treated well… but as you go through life, you realize that things going well isn’t always such a good thing. The better the work goes, the more you have to devote yourself to it… Doing moderately well is the best… but that “moderately” is the hard part.
