Recommended by my dear colleague for the New Territories well-known pork chop restaurant, we decided to stop by this afternoon.We ordered pork chop and wonton mixian and wonton and minced thick noodle. Of course I am going to talk about their famous pork chop. Visually, it did remind me of my childhood memory, enjoying the homemade pork chop made by my Shanghai uncle. Even it was a half portion, it was in big portion. Love they helped slicing the pork. Each slice was half lean and half fat. Cris

Of course I am going to talk about their famous pork chop. Visually, it did remind me of my childhood memory, enjoying the homemade pork chop made by my Shanghai uncle. Even it was a half portion, it was in big portion. Love they helped slicing the pork. Each slice was half lean and half fat. Crispy skin with tender meat. Savoury but not heavy. Fat literally melted in mouth but didn't give a greasy taste. Authentic, look simple but taste complex.
Wonton was stuffed with a balance ratio of vegetables and pork. Silky smooth thin wrapping stuffed with explosion of meat juice stuffing. Absolutely delicious.
Minced was served covering half of the whole bowl. Flavourful but not spiced. Even with chilli, it tasted more on aromatic instead of giving a kick. Tender mince instead of the commercialised melty mince swimming in sauce. Added so much flavour to the broth.
Mixian was surprisingly soft. Unlike the commercialised ones which was thick and chewy, this was thinner, softer and slight slimier which coated with the broth. Thick noodle visually looked like udon. On a soft side but not mushed. Personally found it okay but my friend loved it.
Two big shoutout/reminder for the chives lovers and the chilli oil cravers. You could ask for extra chives which staff would literally give a bowl of chives instead of a spoonful. Pure chives were served instead of a mix of coriander. Chilli oil was homemade which was incredibly aromatic, flavourful and spicy. Both literally lifted the whole bowl of goodnesses to another level! Must ask for!
Obviously, no doubt I came for their food instead of the surrounding, yet nothing disappoint me. I must come back for other toppings!
