Companion Garden Dequtang is often compared with Companion Garden, the overall taste of the two stores is similar, but the restaurant positioning is different. The garden is more like exquisite home-cooked food, and the garden is a good choice as a place for a date, dinner or business banquet.

The Companion Garden Dequtang is located in a relatively deep part of the mixed hall lane, and the appearance is a full private house, with an old door and a closed door. The decoration on the first floor is simple, and when you reach the second floor, you can see the neat and neat box, with cups, cloths, and table flowers showing the style. The terrace outside the box is idle and poetic, and the potted ancient pines and plants are prosaic from a distance.

The restaurant focuses on Subang cuisine, with side dishes according to the position, and the per capita price is 200 yuan, 350 yuan, and 500 yuan respectively. The 200 yuan dish is home-cooked, the dishes are simple, you can taste mung bean cake, hand-peeled fried shrimp and other specialty dishes; If you are more than five people, you can also eat squirrel mandarin fish, which is finely cooked. However, the pan-fried rosefish, which appears more frequently, is not as good as the products produced by Companion Garden, and the taste of the fish is slightly harder.

The 350 yuan meal standard can eat some good hard dishes, the owner was originally in a high-end restaurant in Jinji Lake as the head chef, the current chef of the restaurant are his disciples, from the dish creativity can be seen, their use of ingredients and cooking techniques, are very sophisticated. For example, the lotus fragrant Su-style abalone with bad meat, the combination of bad pork and abalone, tied with petioles, one salty and one fresh, the taste blends with each other, the shape and taste are not dispersed, the bad aroma is outstanding, unforgettable. The hoof tendon roasted shepherd's cabbage is also good, and the minced shepherd's cabbage is wrapped in the soft and glutinous hoof tendons, and the special aroma of the vegetable juice seeps into the hoof tendons, and the taste becomes richer. The mung bean cake that will be matched with all grades is also unexpected, the kitchen is contrary to the tradition of Suzhou, giving up the lard, the delicate mung bean cake is therefore more refreshing, the fragrance is more pure, closer to the flavor of Hangzhou, many guests do not forget to take away a box after the meal. Traditional Subang dishes such as shrimp tofu, southern milk eel, and sauce recipe are also very well done, and there are no thunder points in the dozen or so dishes on the whole table, and the occasional fresh side dishes such as Okinawa sea grapes surprise the young guests.

The biggest highlight of the 500 yuan package is to add a snowflake crab bucket, this Suzhou famous spot is now difficult to eat in the restaurant outside, in fact, it does not require too high cooking skills, but the process is cumbersome, it is necessary to cook, disassemble, plate, drench, etc., carry out multiple processes, which tests the patience of the chef very much, so when the waiter recommends the package to you, he will focus on introducing this dish. In addition, Buddha jumping over the wall and five pieces are also soups worth trying, and the natural umami of the stewed and blended ingredients is far more mellow than the soup with MSG.

The restaurant is particularly particular about the presentation, decorated with pines and cypresses, flowers, or a mini fish tank. If the kitchen can pay more attention to the order of serving and ponder the flavor connection and integration of the whole table, it will be closer to the dining experience of high-end restaurants such as Shanghai and Beijing. In general, if you are looking for cost-effectiveness, you can give priority to the 350 yuan package; If you have enough budget, you might as well try the 500 yuan package, and it is worth the money to taste the almost lost famous spots. The 200 yuan is suitable for old customers to come and eat casually, but some customers report that the freshness and quality of the ingredients at this price seem to be unstable, and there is occasionally a suspicion of shoddy.

The restaurant's business philosophy is more commercial than that of Companion Garden, and the waiter may ask customers to give more positive reviews on online channels, which can cause discomfort to some guests. For restaurants with a wide range of positioning, the ability of the staff to explain to guests and recommend consumption in a targeted manner is very important, and the waiters here are not familiar enough with the dishes, and the level of expression can be improved.

It is worth mentioning that the restaurant can also provide additional programs if guests need it, usually for half an hour. The fee for evaluating the bomb is 400 yuan per person, 500 yuan per person if Kunqu Opera does not dress up, and 800 yuan per person for dress-up.
