Putien in June

Putien, Great World

Came back to try some of the new dishes we noticed from the last time. (十一, 十二)

Putien, braised homemade bean curd

Braised tofu. Something we've had before. This felt right today.

Putien, iced bitter gourd

The iced bitter gourd strips appear to be larger these days. Not complaining. Wonderfully refreshing with the honey dip.

Putien, orange juice

Broke out of the soursop juice cycle and landed ourselves their orange juice instead. It's creamy for some reasons.

Putien, vegetables superior stock

Seasonal vegetables with their century & salted egg infused superior sauce.

Putien, braised pork intestines chinese sauerkraut soup

One of the new dishes was braised pork intestines in Chinese sauerkraut soup (酸菜大肥肠). Broth was awesomely sour, savoury and spicy at the same time which made it moreish. Those slices of pork intestines were both tender and chewy. Would definitely come back for this.

Putien, crispy boneless beef rib

Their crispy boneless beef rib was another new item. Not bad tasting. There was a nice beefy flavour on the meat and while it was deep fried with a crust, it wasn't excessively greasy at all. Their home made red wine black pepper sauce on the side definitely helped with the moisture since the exposed meat dried up pretty quickly. A tad expensive as well. With the gamut of reliable mainstays that's already in their menu, I don't think this one will be revisited. 

Putien, rice
