roasted salt free range chicken
Said Critics' Choice Signature Dish Award-winning dish was their special salted chicken and it's easy to see why it's so acclaimed. The chicken was so moist, tender, and flavourful with a rich but comforting taste behind it. Simply put, it's a perfect dish.

beef tenderloin (with deep fried potatoes)
Another favourite, Western Lake's ornate beef dish really highlighted some east meet west tastes in a pleasing, bite-sized package.

king crab legs (steamed with garlic)
Needless to say, their main attraction in the signature king crab was just as mightily delectable a treat as ever full of deep garlic flavours and topped with a plethora of green onions. Its complementary dish in Superior soy sauce bedded with rice cakes is always a fittingly delicious two-hander.

Western Lake seldom disappoints and is a thoroughly fine destination for traditional Chinese food fare, especially their highly popular morning dim sum service, and still ranks very highly. It continues to impress with its innovative yet familiar meat dishes.
