Visited on 31 Oct 2016 (Mon). TungLok Signatures offers a tantalising range of traditional Chinese cuisine, such as Cantonese, Shanghainese and Sichuan dishes with a dash of Modern creations. The Vivo City outlet was established since Nov 2006.



These are the tables behind!




Charcoal Grilled Honey Pork Shoulder ($20++)
This is like those char siew that we usually had. Nothing special..



Poached Star Garoupa Fillet in Chicken Stock ($38++)
This dish was nice and a healthy dish but very little garoupa fillet with too much vegetables inside. The chicken stock was light, not that flavourful. 

Crisp-Fried Cod Fish ($15++ per person)

The exterior skin was very crispy but the meat was a tad tough.



Poached Crispy Rice with Fresh Crab Meat in Superior Broth ($32++)




This was a comforting claypot poached rice that is best to eat together with other dish, at least it's better than normal rice..



Pan-Fried Spanish Iberico Pork ($15++ per person)

This is the BEST dish but price was very steep at $15++ with such a small portion but quality matters! The marination was extremely aromatic!


Chilled Mango Cream with Pomelo, Dried Mango & Sago with Ice-Cream served in Mini Coconut ($8++)

This is their most popular dessert that you have to try! In chinese it's called "雪中情怀" - Xue Zhong Qing Huai (Very romantic name hor..Heez) It was served with 3 scoops of very yummy coconut ice-cream, sweet mango sago and some oats. And you can also scrape the coconut flesh to enjoy together. You will feel high satisfaction after having this delightful dessert~



Chilled Avocado & Beancurd Pudding 
Topped with Vanilla Ice-Cream ($6++)

I'm not an avocado lover but the taste was light with premium vanilla ice-cream! Another nice dessert!



Other Food Menu



Overall Impression: We were there for dinner. Their service was quite good and food was served fast despite they're almost full house. Quality of the food was in middle range but with small portion of food. They have the BEST Chinese dessert selection among so many chinese restaurants in shopping mall. With the amex credit card promotion below, i will still come back for more!

For this price of $54.50 nett per person including tea for a dinner buffet whereby you can have soup, soon hock fish, abalone, prawn, duck, pork, chicken, beef, desserts at a reputable chinese restaurant, this is definitely a very reasonable price dinner buffet!
