I recently dropped by Concorde Hotel Kuala Lumpur’s Xin Cuisine Chinese Restaurant, and I have to say, the dishes here really bring out the heart of Cantonese dining. With Master Chinese Chef Foong Ah Kwai leading the kitchen, the restaurant is unveiling a line-up of classic signature dishes that celebrate tradition while keeping familiar flavours alive.
Chef Foong isn’t new to this – he has over 50 years of experience in Cantonese cooking, and his approach has always been about comfort, nostalgia, and authenticity. Each dish is prepared with fresh ingredients and time-honoured techniques, giving you that warm, home-style touch while still offering a refined dining experience.
Here are some of the highlights:
Signature Roasted Goose (RM420 whole / RM230 half)
A delicacy from Guangdong, the goose is marinated in soy sauce, herbs, and spices, then slow-roasted until the skin is perfectly crisp and the meat tender. Served every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (weekday orders require three days’ advance notice).
Pork Tripe with Whole Farm Chicken (RM250 nett)
This traditional soup takes a full six hours to prepare. Pork tripe is stuffed with a whole farm chicken, then simmered together with stewing hen, chicken feet, ginkgo, yuzhu, shallots, and pepper. The result is a collagen-rich broth with a peppery depth that showcases true Cantonese craftsmanship.
Honey Glazed Iberico Pork Ribs (RM172 nett)
Premium Iberico pork ribs from Spain are steamed for tenderness, baked for caramelisation, and finished with a glossy honey glaze. Sweet, savoury, and absolutely indulgent.
Golden Beancurd with Abalone and Sea Cucumber (RM52 nett per head)
Homemade beancurd, steamed and pan-fried until golden, is paired with braised abalone and sea cucumber. It’s a humble ingredient elevated into a dish of luxury.
Wok-fried Flat Rice Noodles with Fresh Water Prawn & Scallop (RM85 nett)
A comforting classic elevated with premium seafood. Stir-fried noodles in velvety egg gravy, topped with prawns and scallops, make this one of Xin Cuisine’s most-loved dishes.
These new signature dishes are a testament to Chef Foong’s decades of mastery, combining premium ingredients with the soul of Cantonese tradition. Whether you’re planning a family gathering, a business lunch, or a special celebration, Xin Cuisine’s menu offers something truly memorable.
