我就叫左叉鴨飯，先講個白飯，個白飯好熱，真係好熱，燙口架，同埋夠乾水，我鍾意呀！
見到新園興記連續六年都有米芝蓮推介，唔會差吧!!
上環既物價我唔太清楚，但心中覺得過左海一定貴!
雖然是米之蓮推介餐廳，但他的價錢仍是相當化算，眼見燒鵝飯只是＄49立即躍躍欲試。
可惜我去的時候不是繁忙時段，燒鵝及燒鴨都暫停供應，唯有吃叉燒油雞飯。
We got two combo sets, each with two choices of meat, so four total: bbq pork, roast pork, suckling pig, and chicken. You get a choice of rice, rice spaghetti, and I think rice vermicelli. If you get the rice spaghetti, it's noodles in a broth. This is one of those things where I think I've finally mastered chopsticks-- y'know, like, level 1 mastery, not level 99 or anything-- and then I just get completely embarrassed. The noodles are weighty and frictionless. How do you get them in your mouth? Anyway, the noodles are very boring and I recommend the rice.
The chicken: I always forget. Always. As an American, my restaurant default is always "the chicken." We're culturally conditioned to think it's healthier and involves less rainforest deforestation. Plus, who doesn't love chicken, right? Frequently, however, it's the worst choice at a Chinese place: cold, slimy (greasy?), full of bone shrapnel, almost no meat, just clammy chicken skin and tiny bone shards. Ya burnt.
The other meats were to my mind better. Char siu: this was absolutely fine, but pretty unremarkable. Like, better than the stuff at the supermarket, but not noticeably different from the other roast meat shops around town.
They give you two dipping sauces: one has preserved vegetable of some sort (probably mustard greens) in a strongly flavored oil-- maybe peanut or sesame. I thought it was very good. The other looked sweet so I didn't try it.
If you get the rice, you don't miss out on the soup, they bring you a separate bowl. The soup is decently meaty, but could use a little salt. As I said, go for the rice, it's the best choice.
