If you're on the hunt for a culinary gem in Hong Kong's Yuen Long, look no further than Putien (Yoho Mall I). The sprawling eatery, known for its vibrant ambiance and comfortable setting, specializes in offering authentic Fujian cuisine in a modern and relaxing environment. Located on the second floor of Yoho Mall, this restaurant invites diners to experience unique flavors that transport them straight to the heart of Fujian.

Putien's menu is a delightful exploration of various traditional dishes infused with contemporary flair. One standout offering is the PUTIEN Classic Set A for two, featuring an array of delectable items including raised bamboo shoots, clay pot chicken in fermented sauce, fried Heng Hwa bee hoon, and pearl barley with winter melon—all for just HK$528. This set embodies the essence of sharing, allowing you to relish the vibrant tastes of multiple dishes in one sitting.

During a recent visit, my taste buds were tantalized by the One-Person Lunch Set, which includes an exquisite abalone on ice as an appetizer, soup or drink, and a thoughtfully curated main course. The abalone was tender with a refreshing juicy texture, while the famous bian rou soup—a bowl of tiny dumplings accompanied by seaweed—was a comforting revelation. I opted for two different fish dishes, highlighting the culinary creativity of the chefs; one was cooked in just 100 seconds, while the other was delightfully fried with a sweet and sour sauce.

The charm of Putien doesn't stop at the food. Diners frequently rave about the quality and generous portions at reasonable prices. Ronnie Lui mentions his bliss over the spicy oyster dish, emphasizing the hygiene and taste, while Annie Chu applauds the deep-fried Cha Bao for its fluffiness and flavor—a true testament to the kitchen's meticulous craftsmanship. Charlotte Yuk Yung LI acknowledges a couple of deep-fried oyster dishes that didn't meet her expectations, yet the overall dining experience remained positive.
