I just to have another one of the "Chef's Masterpieces", so I called on Thursday and asked for the House Special Chicken, or I Ping Zhao Pai Ji (18). This consists of room temperature chicken, boned out but with the skin, skewered and submerged in a spicy sauce with large chunks of cucumber. Floating on top of the sauce is a thin layer of chile oil. This was quite good and of course, too much for one person. Naturally we take the rest with us. Not content to order just one dish, I also took in some Eggplant with Garlic Sauce (Yu Xiang Chi Tzu - 7.95). A bit disappointed with this dish - too much cornstarch, sauce a little too sweet and the eggplant mushy. I relayed my thoughts to Jenny, the host, and she said they can always cook it to my specifications. That's how you get customers to come back. In the meantime, if you didn't read my review of Country Sky in the Marina, I mentioned that I had the same dish there and it was by far the best I'd had in a long time.
