Fu Hui Gen Tang (福慧根湯)

While some reviewers praise the 'TCM-style' soup as a highlight, others find its bitter, 'black alcohol' taste unpalatable, especially when three bowls are expected before the meal.

The restaurant's omakase-style menu, priced at $138++ per person, features dishes like Sacha Inchi with jellyfish, pork belly, cod fish, and mee sua.

Portions are described as small, though some find them satisfying.

The cod fish and squid sausage receive positive mentions for their unique flavors.

Service is consistently highlighted as attentive and warm, with staff explaining the soup's origins and benefits.

However, there are significant concerns regarding value and consistency.

One reviewer noted an empty dining room during dinner hours, contrasting with a packed restaurant next door.

The pork belly was described as cold and oily, and the mee sua broth overly salty.

The overall sentiment is that while the concept is unique, the execution and taste profile may not appeal to all, particularly those unfamiliar with or averse to strong herbal flavors.

We'd recommend this for adventurous diners seeking a distinct, health-focused herbal dining experience, provided they are comfortable with the high price point and potential for polarizing flavors.

Skip if you prefer conventional Chinese cuisine or are sensitive to medicinal tastes.
