Directions
This looks pretty tasty lamb fillets stuffed with minced chicken and served with potato pancakes. The presentation looks like something seen through a kaleidoscope overlapping triangles formed by the three lamb fillets, the potato pancakes, the morels and the sauces. Here again, I believe that shallots" are in reality scallions. The "pork net" is more than likely a web of caul fat. Establishment: New World Hotel 22 Salisbury Road Tsimshatsui Kowloon.
