3. Fried Lobster Wonton with Yellow Chives and Spicy Sauce
The fried wontons were generously stuffed with lobster meat that was juicy, savory, and naturally sweet. This dish goes well with the sweet and spicy sauce but I personally prefer the natural taste without the sauce.
4. Baked Pumpkin, Black Truffle, and Chicken Puff
These pumpkin-shaped dumplings are filled with minced chicken and black truffle. The savory filling is complemented by the slight sweetness of the dumpling skin. The texture is very similar to sesame balls (buchi).
8. Sautéed French Beans with Minced Angus Beef
French beans are sautéed together with minced Angus beef and dried chilis. The beans are naturally sweet while the beef adds umami to the dish. The chili gives a smokey and spicy flavor while the pine nuts add contrast to the texture of the dish. This can be enjoyed on its own or can be paired with fried rice or steamed rice.

Canton Road is one of my most frequented Chinese restaurants in Metro Manila, and it was a big surprise to me that my most ordered dishes (mostly Sichuanese and Taiwanese dishes) are not part of this list. This only tells me that I have not fully experienced Canton Road yet.
