Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: First Culinary Restaurant, tucked away in AMK ITE, offers a surprisingly solid Chinese dining experience.

While some dishes like the braised pork can be on the saltier side, the general consensus points to a high standard of food, especially for a less-known establishment.

The Wasabi Prawns are a consistent standout, frequently highlighted as a must-order for their balanced flavour.

The Peking Duck is generally well-received, with the option to have the remaining meat cooked into Ee Fu noodles, which reviewers praise.

Service is often described as attentive, and the spacious environment contributes to a comfortable meal, making it a good option for families and elderly diners.

However, we note that some experiences report slow service, particularly between dishes, even when the restaurant isn't at full capacity.

Portions can also be perceived as small, leading to a higher per-person cost than expected for the location.

We think it's a worthwhile visit for its quality Chinese cuisine, but be prepared for potential lulls in service during peak times.

We'd recommend going early evening to avoid the main rush.
