With a bay of slot machines beaming with bright lights and ringing with jackpots across its front doors, the ambiance at Hong Bao is still serene. Vintage teapots and dinner plates rest on top of the shelves on the walls, displaying the culture within the popular eatery at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino at San Manuel.

Executive Chef Peter Au and the Hong Bao culinary team have delicately crafted each plate with exquisite flavor to create an unforgettable dining experience. Located near High Limit Slots, Hong Bao brings flavor that can’t be replicated elsewhere. The shareable dishes are fitting for any occasion, so if you’re in the hunt for the perfect dinner date idea, look no further as we have it arranged for you.

AN APPETIZING DELIGHT

Before digging into the main entrees, you’ll need to start the night with a serving of pork dumplings. The light bite is the perfect portion as an appetizer to settle the cravings that can devour the Hong Bao menu. The dumplings are accompanied with a generous serving of soy sauce that brings a welcomed hint of umami.

DINNER IS SERVED

Peking Duck

The most popular item on the menu is made to order and it’s well worth the wait. The Peking Duck is cooked to perfection and leaves you wanting more. Served with thinly sliced cucumbers and scallions, be sure to drizzle hoisin sauce on the freshly cut pieces of duck before rolling it into a wrap.

Black Pepper Beef

Make room on your plate for the Black Pepper Beef, where the sauteed onions and bell peppers complement the dish in flavor and texture. A knife isn’t needed as the tenderness of the meat allows the prongs to your fork will pierce through with ease. Its mouth-watering rich flavor will have you asking for a second serving.

Shanghai Braised Pork

Find your way through the sauce for the ultimate experience of flavor. The flavor profile for the Shanghai Braised Pork is rich and delivers with the sauce’s consistency that allows for you to enjoy the texture of the pork even more.

Garlic Prawn Shrimp

The smell of garlic will be your first interaction with this dish. By being the only dish under the sea, it makes its presence known with its aroma. The jumbo prawn is filling with its size and the savory taste of garlic makes it memorable.

Vegetable Fried Rice/Steamed White Rice

Rice is a must-have with any savory dish at Hong Bao. The vegetable fried rice packs in added flavor to accompany each dish, and the steamed rice is an iconic traditional serving. 

Make your next dinner memorable at Hong Bao with an exquisite dining experience cultivated by the team. Reservations can be made online and through the Yaamava' mobile app.
