Moonlight Cantonese Restaurant in Taipei, Taiwan

Wok-Fried Lobster with Broccoli, Scallion in Black Bean Sauce

This is supposed to be a well-known Cantonese restuarant in Taipei, but I didn't really care that much for it (359 Zhongxiao East Road Section 7, 8F). Sure, it was upscale and suitable for a business dinner, but none of the food got me excited aside from perhaps some kind of almond mochi dessert at the end. They oddly served Peking duck here, but it wasn't particularly tasty nor crispy. The lobster above was fine, but not very meaty, and my eyes rolled at the broccoli ganish. At least they separately served an interesting stringly vegetable called water snowflake that is local to the area.
