We had a family dinner here (11 persons in total) for celebration of a wedding anniversary event. Here are my general comments for this place - very impressive food at reasonable prices. The wait staff are all helpful, considerate and friendly. Very efficient service indeed.

Here are my general comments for this place - very impressive food at reasonable prices. The wait staff are all helpful, considerate and friendly. Very efficient service indeed. Under such circumstances, even the old-style decor and rather crowded environment hardly seem to bother us anymore ... ...
Must order items:
北京烤鴨 - best of its kind I have tried in HK so far. Really crispy skin and tender duck meat with just the right amount of fat. Each of us ate 3-4 pieces at least.
砂鍋雞煲翅 - we could not recall having had a similar product with more shark's fin in it. Almost everyone had 2 bowls and some of us were given a third bowl. Extremely delicious !
窩燒肘子 - I consider this to be somewhat like the "chinese" version of German knuckle. The meat was crispy each the meat really tender and juicy. Be warned though the portion is HUGE for this dish - I think there should be enough for even 15-20 persons (I am not joking) !
京燒羊肉 - Best dish of the night. Just believe me - if you are a lamb lover, this is one dish you would not want to miss.
Also good in my opinion:
宮保煆
火腿炆津白
拔絲蘋果
Not so good:
和尚戴帽 (forget about it)
One good point about the service - when we discovered that most of the food portions were big, and we knew we could not take in any more food, we asked whether we could cancel one of the dishes (炒鴨鬆). The waiter was very helpful and just canceled the order with no questions asked.
Will I come back to try the other stuff later ? You bet !
