gongbao lion’s mane mushroom

Super delicious dish. 10/10. Highly recommend this.

Monkeyhead mushrooms with bell pepper and carrot slices, plus a generous heap of crunchy roasted cashews! Pretty good rendition of a classic caifan / zichar dish with savoury spicy gongbao sauce and dried red chillies. Personally found the monkeyhead mushrooms quite tough (almost like soy 'meat'); would have preferred it to be slightly more tender. Had this at a catered buffet on board a junkboat. P.S. Check out my social post about the junkboat experience! Update Sep 2023: Had this again while dining in and it was good! (Allium-free) #sgvegan #vegancatering #buffet

A nice dish with very strong taste, I felt it overpowered the fried rice and would go better with plain rice. Good mix of ingredients, moderately spicy and I didn't eat the chilli flakes - there were soooo many. The monkey head mushrooms were fried very nice and crispy and my non veg companion enjoyed the meal. It comes with cashew nuts too which adds crunch, flavour and protein. Peppers, carrots and mushrooms on the side are a good addition of some veggies.

Gongbao lion’s mane mushroom ($15/ $28) – This is the best! I had so many of it. Sweet little mushroom to me. Love this to go with rice!!!! Highly recommended to go for this! Likey this dish.

Don't get April's fascination with this dish. Guess mushrooms only work in broth for me
