The lu rou at The Salted Plum seems to be one of the most raved dishes but it didn't seem particularly good. Came with 2 thick slices of pork belly.

The pork belly was tender, with a good meat to fat ratio.

The letdown was the gravy. It went a little too heavy on the spices - in particular, the star anise. The taste of the wine also came across as a little overpowering, masking the subtler flavours in the gravy.

Overall, a decent dish but needs a little tweaking in the gravy.
