Gloria Maris/ Green Maris Shabu-shabu

Rating:★★
Category:Restaurants
Cuisine: Chinese
Location:Greenhills
We ate here over the weekend to celebrate the birthday of my father-in-law and I'm so disappointed. For me, the quality of the food diminished--- the most essential ingredient of shabu-shabu which is the soup base lacked character (we ordered dried scallop and winter melon soup) and the seafood balls were just salty with no authentic flavor at all. The dumplings that I loved before was again, tasteless. We ordered a few items as well from the dimsum menu and once again, I was disappointed. I ordered steamed fish fillets with garlic which was expensive at P300, only to be served dory fillets that tasted floury--- not good for something steamed. Truly, it was not the same anymore. What ever happened to the famous Gloria Maris Shabu-shabu? Maybe they are cost-cutting but in the process, they also had "quality-cutting" which is too bad.
