Private Kitchen Dishes at Cooking Papa (Peninsula)

Reservation has been made and credit card has been on file. But they only have a table @ 7:30pm.

Here are what I pre-ordered:

  • Steamed Crab with Garlic (x2) $26 per lbs
  • Glutinous Rice Stuffed Chicken $45
  • Braised Seafood in Beggar's Purse $60
  • Pipa Tofu $30 (I think I ordered this)
  • Eight Treasures Stuffed Duck $80

Lobster Salad is just too expensive and we will order other dishes from their regular menu when we are there, i.e.

  • Roast pork
  • veggie
  • soup
  • etc

Cooking Papa serves authentic Cantonese food. I just found out that they have a secret menu, so I want to go check it out.

Since we need to pre-order 3 days ahead, please make sure you can attend before you RSVP.

Also please leave a comment if you want to try a particular dish and I will take that into consideration when I do the pre-ordering.

    Fantastic meal! Two dishes I was very surprised about where the Glutinous Rice Stuffed Chicken and the Pipa Tofu. Both were far better than I would have expected. The crispy chicken skin was so good.

      I didn't. I don't have that power. Only Jeffrey, the co-organizer has the power.

    Steamed Garlic Crab AQ
    Glutinous Rice Stuffed Chicken $45
    Braised Seafood in Beggar's Purse $60

    I think we can order the soup du jour if we want soup.
    and a veggies of the day.

    Is that enough food for everyone? Do we need to plan on the 2nd dinner?

      I'm also a mirugai fan, but happy with whatever dishes are chosen. One thought though: if you let vetos have too much power, then one never gets to eat the really cool dishes since they are more likely to have extreme preferences (good and bad) - you always end up with the 'safest' dishes. I'd love to try the pea sprouts with the preserved eggs since I adore fermented/preserved foods of all types.

    • Michelle

      But -- we can always go again if it turns out good and make a point to get other dishes. So no big deal.

    I thought their Glutinous Rice Stuffed chicken was their most famous special dish? I think I read it somewhere on Yelp. I also want to try their garlic crab but for some reason it is not on the menu online.
