Try this Hong Kong owned restaurant and discover a good selection of Western , Asian and fusion dishes.
Nice clean restaurant with a consistent architectural theme? Check.
Clean bathrooms? Check.
BBQ Pork. Very Nice. (Thanks to Bellisomo for the suggestion!)
Mutton Chops. Very Nice.
Mixed vegetable dish. Very Nice.
Cheesecake. The real deal! Best I've tasted in Dalian. I want to try the Oreo cookie cheesecake next time!!
I want to go back and continue working through both the western and chinese dishes. The waitstaff is courteous. The price was reasonable considering the good food, decor and service.

Authentic Taiwanese Food in Dalian, Monday, 25 February 2008
Very authentic Taiwanese Style Cooking. Especially the San Bei Ji (Three Cup Chicken - Basil Cooked Chicken with Garlic Ginger and Rice Wine in Casareole) which we missed very much since leaving Shanghai (where we were the frequent patrons of Jojo Restaurant).
The BBQ Pork is fairly good considering that this is not supposed to be a full fledged Hong Kong or Cantonese restaurant.
The price is extremely reasonable. Just wondering when they can branch into other neighbourhoor like KFQ in Dalian.
The ambience is excellent with very attentive service by a team of young staff.
Will be a regular visitor there from now although it is a fair distance from the Dalian City Centre. Cost me 30 Yuan by taxi from the Railway station.

Yummy, Oishii, Bang! Value for money., Friday, 01 February 2008
The boom of ITO and BPO businesses in the software park, since its debut in 2003, has attracted thousands of expatriates to relocate their families to this beautiful coastal city, Dalian. Despite the incremental inflow of expatriates, there aren't many good western restaurants available in the city for them to choose. Among those few I used to give Riveria the highest rating followed by Cafe Iggosso.
As recommended by Curtis, I paid my first visit to City One 86 in early January last year. Since then my wife and I visited the place two or three times a week. Initially, we ordered only the Cantonese style dishes, such as pork knuckle, salty cold duck, fish head in hot pot, ...., and even the world most favorite shark fin soup. These are yummy!
Last night, we and another couple picked a few dishes from their western menu, including salami pizza, seafood spagetti, lamb cutlet, sirloin steak, and then we finished by sharing an O'riel cake and a walnut pie. The other couple gave full mark to the food, especially the steak, while my wife rated the O'riel cake the highest. According to the owner, their beef was sourced from a local farm in Pulandian where a special breed of Japanese cattles were fed the same way as the cattles for Kobe (or Matsusaka) beef.
The owner also gave us a heads-up that the restaurant will offer promotional set menu during the week between Valentine's Day Feb 14 and Lanterns Festival Day (Chinese Valentine's Day) Feb 21. Economic sets for two will cost less than rmb 200 (with two glasses of beer or wine), and romantic sets for two will cost less than rmb 600 (with a bottle of imported French wine!). The restaurant will also put iceing on the cake by offering a mysterious gift for a lady guest per set. For these quality food at these prices, I'm sure that this special offer will be value for money. My personal advice is booking in advance to avoid disappointment. Happy Valentine's!
Yours,
Food lover

Finally, somewhere fresh in Digital Square, Sunday, 06 January 2008
This is a brand new restaurant right near digital square. It is in the same building as the "CityOne" apartment complex, hence the English name "City One 86".
I had lunch there on the first day of operations. The food is a very nice mix of Chinese and Western food. We ordered several dishes to share. Definitely try the Shrimp Ball Noodles, which are a house specialty. We also had the Chicken Rice (Ji1pa2fan4), BBQ Roasted Pork (Cha1shao1rou4) and pizza, all recommended.
The staff was courteous, if a little nervous. Very clean and tastefully decorated. All in all, highly recommended. For me, this place is a good alternative to Maizi Dawang for my foreign guests who come to the Software Park, so I will be going there often. Pricing is mid-range, in the 30s for lunch.
