My family and I went to dinner at Landmark Seafood Cuisine on Victoria Park at McNicoll on Good Friday. We had gone there a while back when it was called Elegantview Chinese Restaurant.
The interior of the restaurant was your typical Chinese restaurant decor - a traditional red and gold-coloured interior with gold statues of a dragon and phoenix at the front of the dining hall. I can't say it stood out, one way or another.
For me, the main attraction was the food. I have to say it was really good. Most of the time when I eat Chinese food it's either a plate of rice or noodles with different toppings. Though, that's because I usually go with two or three others and we only order for ourselves.
This time we ordered shared dishes of beef, fish, veggies, tofu and chicken along with white rice. With a larger group you're afforded the luxury of greater variety.
Along with tasting good, the dishes were presented in an attractive manner. It was nice to see that attention to detail.
Of course you're going to pay a little more for of that, but the bill wasn't outrageous. It came out to $145 after tax and tip for the six of us. The most expensive thing was actually these mug-sized bowls of soup with sea cucumber at $15 a piece. We ordered two. They were quite flavourful though.
This restaurant is definitely step up over Congee Wong. A nice treat every now and then.
