Moonlight Cantonese Restaurant in Taipei, Taiwan

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

This was supposed to be a well-known Cantonese restaurant suitable for an upscale business dinner (359 Zhongxiao East Road Section 7, 8F). The selling point seemed to be more about the venue than the food though. The lobster above was more shell than meat, while their Peking duck wasn't particularly tasty nor crispy. The more interesting items were the vegetables, like a morel and bamboo shoot claypot as well as a stringy vegetable called water snowflake that is local to the area. I guess I liked their almond mochi dessert at the end.
