very authentic pekingnese food, which entails slight grease in certain dishes. but you can still go if you're watching your waistline - just order non-fried foods etc etc.my personal favorites over the years include -童子雞 which is always crisp on the skin, not hard nor burnt, and tender, flaking just slightly inside. 錦繡松子魚 sweet and sour sauce is not too runny nor thick. fish is to the bite - it melts once your teeth sinks into the skin! 荵爆牛 is so garlicky which appeals to me but can get slightl

錦繡松子魚 sweet and sour sauce is not too runny nor thick. fish is to the bite - it melts once your teeth sinks into the skin!
荵爆牛 is so garlicky which appeals to me but can get slightly oily.
OH MAKE SURE YOU ORDER THEIR 蒸素餃, with vermicelli, mushroom, pak choi, carrot fillings. the thickness of the skin is perfect - thick enough to enclose the fillings but not so thick that you end up with a stomach full of flour. and you can smell the sesame oil in the filling but it's not overwhelming.
i don't know about their peking duck because i don't like duck. but dad orders it for himself everytime.
don't bother with the 'imitation kimchi' that they serve with drinks. it's always so salty.
their servers are at least as old as the restaurants, but still very quick and quite friendly.
if you live in HK and you've never been there you SHOULD go sometime.
