Popular Post Charles Tsui Posted March 2, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2017 As a Hong Kong native, I'm pleased to report that dinner at Tiger Fork was a satisfying taste of home for me. The combination of technique and ingredient quality accounts for much of the positive experience. Cantonese food in East Asia (and, for that matter, in Vancouver, Toronto, SF, and NYC) is represented across the full price spectrum. In the DC area, I feel that most Chinese cooking available to us is clustered around a relatively low price point. The Source comes to mind as an exception, but I've always found their interpretations to be too muted in flavor. In interviews, the team behind Tiger Fork talk about research trips to Hong Kong and the menu reads like a collection of their favorite finds. Nothing wrong with that. There's a focus on dai pai dong (street-side food stalls) classics, with some dim sum and HK BBQ thrown in. They really did their homework; I think the flavors and textures are pretty spot-on. Cheung Fun with Shrimp and Flowering Chives and the "Kowloon Buns" showed expert dough technique: chewy but not tough. The cauliflower part of the Chinese Cauliflower dish was unremarkable, but the star was copious stir fried flowering chives which were crisp and fragrant and just the right amount of oily. The BBQ Plate of pork belly, char siu (why do so many restaurants, including this one, spell it "char sui" on their menus?), and soya chicken showed textbook preparation, but was elevated by use of high quality cuts. Minor nit: the char siu marinade tastes exactly like the jar of Lee Kum Kee I have in my fridge right now. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt that they happened to have perfectly reverse-engineered it for their house-made version! We didn't try any of the (heavily hyped) baijiu cocktails, but the Hong Kong Milk Tea was good: properly strong and not too sweet. We wanted to try the Coconut Rice Cakes for dessert, but they were already sold out at 7pm. The HK Style Egg Tart is, according to the Washingtonian piece on the restaurant, out-sourced to Maria's of Rockville. It's not a great egg tart. (Tiger Fork: if you're reading this, please in-house the next version. I suggest studying the Portuguese egg tart from Fat Rice in Chicago.) Front of house was run perfectly--there were no signs that it was opening week. By the time we left, the bar and dining room were packed. This is a great addition to the local scene and I'm looking forward to trying more of the menu (especially the announced dim sum brunch expansion). 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonRocks Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 [Charles, what is the correct adjective for Hong Kong, in terms of describing their cuisine? I have to admit, I'm stumped: Taiwanese, Cantonese, Shanghainese, but Hong Kongese?! That can't be (although it's in the Oxford English Dictionary to describe citizens - the cuisine is very thoroughly referenced here (*), but it doesn't leave me with a one-word adjective.) Hong Kongese sounds so clumsy to me, but so did Shanghainese at first, and now I'm getting used to it. "Ask someone from England" is a perfectly valid response, by the way.] (*) This is a good article, and worth spending some time on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Tsui Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Don, there's no widely-accepted standard adjective. "Hong Kongese" is used infrequently, but somewhat consistently, by the local English language press. You'll often find (and I prefer) the more natural "Hong Kong style". "Cantonese" is often used to describe cuisine, but is inclusive of neighboring Guangdong province (romanized as "Canton") in mainland China. A dish like steamed whole fish with soy sauce and ginger could be fairly described as Cantonese. But something like deep fried French toast with peanut butter and condensed milk should be specifically associated with Hong Kong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thessaly Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 The good doctor and I had dinner there tonight, and when he said "I think I'm going to order $FOOD next time," I knew we had a winner on our hands. We walked in a little before 6 PM, and most of the seats at the bar were already taken. Many of the tables were still empty, though, and we were seated towards the back with a good view of the kitchen. Seeing as how our last meal in this space was RJ Cooper's memorable 2015 New Year's Eve blowout, we were curious to see what had been done to Rogue 24's former digs. Tiger Fork's done a great job of making the space its own. Service was prompt and friendly, with waters poured and drink orders taken once we were seated. We weren't in the mood for cocktails nor keen on wine, so we just stuck with beers. We started with the Kowloon Buns, Cheung Fun, and Humble Plate of Chili Wontons, which came in quick succession. The good doctor's plate was quickly cleared away and replaced with another when his Kowloon bun squirted out soy ginger dipping sauce, which was very attentive. All the dishes were excellent, though I'd probably work through the rest of the starters on the menu before ordering the cheung fun again. We went with the BBQ Platter for our main course, with Salt Fish & Prawn Fried Rice and Pea Shoots as side dishes. My one photo of the fried rice was blurry, presumably because it was the one dish I couldn't wait to tear into and had eaten several bites before remembering to snap a pic. The char siu was, as Charles Tsui noted, on point, though the good doctor was most impressed by the crispy pork belly. The picked bean sprouts and chili sauces make for good contrasts with the meats, though the plain white rice was surprisingly dry. The pea shoots were a fantastic side dish, and I didn't think they needed any of the homemade oyster sauce that accompanied the dish, though that did make for a tasty dipping sauce for the soya chicken. We had most of our mains boxed up so we could have room for dessert, which was the Bubble Waffle Matcha Ice Cream. While delicious, the plating left a lot to be desired; it's served in a crumpled lunch sack, and if you put your spoon through the middle like yours truly, you have to scoop out the collapsed remains. The GM who stopped by our table noted that they were trying to go for a "street food feel" with this dessert but agreed that form overrode function in the presentation. We'll definitely be back, especially for the dim sum brunch, and despite some minor quibbles with timing and service, Tiger Fork was an excellent dining experience. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cajcaj Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Just had an enjoyable dinner here tonight. A disclaimer of sorts - I grew up in Hong Kong, but don't consider myself an expert on the food. Of our 3 appetizers, the dan dan noodles, cheung fun and kowloon buns - the last were definitely our favorite. I should have heeded the above review and not bothered with the cheung fun - these are one of my all time fave dim sum dishes, so it had a lot of living up to do. I found them kind of bland and the noodle was too thick. The dan dan wasn't sauce-y or nutty enough and strayed too far from the authentic - give me a bowl from A&Js over this version any day. For our entree, we got the BBQ plate and thought it was very good - the pork belly had tooth-shatteringly crispy skin and the char siu had good flavor and char (ha, ha). The soy chicken was also very moist and flavorful. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simul Parikh Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Had a nice meal here yesterday and some medicinal cocktails. 1. Cheung fun - shrimp rolled dumpling thingie, so beautiful to look at it, and tasty. The sauce is awesome. 2. Humble chili wontons - meat a little chewy, but dumpling skin was top notch 3. Whole dourade - they filet it, and then sauce it, and then put it back in the fish. Tasty! I got the pisco drink, Peruvian Chef In A Chinese Kitchen, that was refreshing, almost like a green juice. Kind of $$$, but unique and beautiful dishes. It was over a $100 for me and the cardiologist. -S 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaRiv18 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 So they have ruined Beef Chow Fun for me at all the other restaurants. Wow! Four of us ate here, ordered a majority of the entrees and desserts. We went easy on the drinking, maybe 2 rounds each, including $6 San Migs. With tax and tip, $75/head. Exceeded expectations.

Gadarene Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 This is not going to be a particularly helpful review, because I don't remember the details, but: My girlfriend and I ate here soon after it opened, and we really enjoyed the five or six things we had. Then we went back a month or so later, ordered some of the same dishes and some different ones, and were very disappointed in almost everything we ate. The second visit, I felt like the seasoning was off in a lot of the dishes, to the point of being aggressively oversalted, so perhaps it was just a bad day in the kitchen. (I did let someone know about the seasoning issue.) In any event, after the second visit we haven't been in a hurry to go back, so I'm glad to hear that it seems to have regained whatever mojo it might have lost.

Ericandblueboy Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Menu is finally online. Looking at it, I can't think of any reason why I'd eat there. It certainly isn't like any restaurant I ate at in Hong Kong. It's basically a mishmash of different Chinese cuisines. In my mind, a messy menu can only mean one thing....

Charles Tsui Posted August 11, 2017 Author Share Posted August 11, 2017 Tiger Fork has to be appreciated in-context. Is their BBQ, for example, better than what I've had at the best specialist shops in HK? No way. But I don't really expect a $1.50 char siu rice box joint to pop up on Blagden Alley anytime soon. As I wrote above, if this place opened in Vancouver, it wouldn't merit much attention. But it's in DC, and there's nothing else quite like it right now. I do appreciate authenticity and focus. But I also understand why dilution may be necessary to succeed in a given market. 10 years ago, you couldn't really get a proper bowl of ramen here. Then, Toki Underground opened with a pretty non-traditional take on the dish (which they were frank about). But it did open a lot of people's eyes to the idea of ramen that didn't come in a plastic bag, a menu focused on it, and a new price point for it. Now, we have a diverse selection of ramen-only shops, like Ren's and Daikaya, which could hold their own in Japan. But, unlike NYC, we don't have dedicated soba or udon restaurants, so there continues to be room for the market to evolve (mature). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe no Udon here. Marukame in HNL should franchise, already. Would kill it. Tempura houses (not sure if this list is accurate). I haven't been to Japan, but I've been to Seattle and Vancouver multiple times - Seki and Daikaya sure seem every bit as authentic as what's out there; others I've been to, not so much. Still, pick any country in the world, other than 2-3 that we have good representation in, and you'll have even bigger problems. The few West African restaurants we have, for example, are a bunch of countries lumped together - it's largely the same way with Central and South America. Really, it's everywhere - and Washington, DC is ahead of the vast majority of the United States. I've kind of accepted that if you want the real deal, you have to travel - how many Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa restaurants do you see in France, for example (actually, how much spicy food do you see in France?) Ask anyone from Peru about our ceviche, and they'll roll their eyes. Shanghai, seafood. France, cheese. It goes on-and-on. I know we're supposed to be a melting pot, but we're also a bunch of cowboys. Besides, when everything melts together, you can't even tell what it is.

Simul Parikh Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Nah... Daikaya is to izakaya as to Jaleo is to a Madrid tapas bar. The ones in Japan are casual hangouts where a salaryman and his buddies go to after work for beer and snacks. No craft cocktails, fancy presentations of food, reservations, or dressing up. Food might be somewhat similar, but here it's just another fancy restaurant... I wonder why we can't do tapas right, either. It's always super fancy, sit down, reservations, a menu, and a "scene'. It would be nice if Solly's gave a small slider or some fries or whatever with each drink, but it's not really our culture. You're right.. gotta travel. So sad, haven't left the country since December 2016. Living through everyone on this board... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ericandblueboy Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 I was in NJ visiting my bro, who lives about 40 miles west of NYC. The local Chinese restaurant scene changes constantly, just like here. We went to the most well known Cantonese restaurant that advertises many seafood dishes and ordered a Typhoon Shelter Crab and it came out all wrong. It was breaded and deep fried! The crab wasn't cracked and the meat had no seasoning. The waiter proudly proclaimed it was 2.7 lbs, meaning it's a big shitty expensive crab. I want just one good Cantonese seafood joint! I think I have to go to Toronto for decent Chinese seafood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pool Boy Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Went to Tiger Fork this weekend. Surprised how quickly it filled up so early (we were there at 5:30). It gets noisy. The communal tables have lousy bench seating. But the cocktails were delicious, the wines generally well priced and the food, overall quite good (though I think they took liberties on the spiciness of the food - Cantonese is typically pretty mild, this was not super spicy but some of the dishes were spicier than I expected). Overall, quite a nice meal. Pictures coming soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pool Boy Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 We went once and enjoyed it. We were there on the early side since, as I recall, they do not take reservations. By the time we left, the place was deafening due to the place being packed. I was glad to get out of there so I could hear again. The food was good, but the loudness does not have me racing back there to try it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
