Discover a taste of authentic Oriental fare at YING on Francis Street in Northbridge. Open the golden doors and step into a Chinese palace where hanging lantern lights cast a subtle glow over tables adorned in red linen, creating an ambiance of Eastern mysticism. Order a cocktail at the black and yellow embossed bar, before taking a seat to peruse an extensive a la carte and dim sum menu, including choices from a live seafood tank cooked to order. Perhaps start with Cantonese-style spicy squid tentacles and seasoned crispy mushrooms, before devouring lobster and snow crab with black bean sauce, or ginger and shallots. Be tempted by braised pork ribs with peanuts and pineapple, served with steamed rice, while those with a sweet tooth may be enticed by chilled mango sago cream with pomelo.
