Recently, I find myself struggling more and more to select which 'saved-up reviews' to write as a Priority: I try to avoid the longer ones, or else sometimes I don't take photos of what I eat (perhaps due to inconvenience, esp. when meeting with other business related people ), but even taking these into consideration, I'm still way-way behind in catching up with putting them online by the order of around 150 reviews+. However, having not written much about Cantonese Food lately I guess 明記
Ordered some random dishes for a frugal dinner with friends alike over a beer or 2: dishes include Dried Vegies and Pork Soup, 明記小炒王, Fried Egg Omelette with Scallions, an enjoyable Sweetish Marinated Fried then Braised Pork Ribs, fresh Sea Prawns in Soy Sauce, Steamed Meat Patty (around 15% Fat only, so healthy!), Long Razor Clams with Vermicelli and Minced Garlic. Dessert consisted of Slow-Cooked Papaya Soup with Snow Fungus. Apparently, this place will have its ups and downs but nowadays it seemed back to normal again, and despite being located under Fook Lam Moon, many of the menu items listed only range from the $55-$80 dollar range. VERY AFFORDABLE FOR SUCH A PRIME LOCATION. The Food Quality isn't overly exciting but its definitely better than so many other places, plus its executed to a good enough standard that I have no hesitation in coming back!
PRETTY GOOD EXECUTION OVERALL: OUR GROUP OF FRIENDS AGREED THIS PUTS PLACES LIKE 志記 IN SHAM SHUI PO AND MANY OTHERS INTO SHAME, WHEN THAT HAS SO MANY GOOD REVIEWS ON OPENRICE BUT IN FACT SERVES RUBBISH FOOD IN COMPARISON & FOR ALMOST SIMILAR PRICES TOO DESPITE THE RUN-DOWN DECO AND LOCATION, I SHOULD ADD....
HERE, WORTH A MID '4' AT MINIMUM.
