One can easily spent anywhere from $50 to over $100 on lunch around Quarry Bay, yet this chinese BBQ shop offers lunch boxes for under $30! I have passed by this place a few times and most people do take outs as there is limited seating inside the shop. The line moves fairly quickly and service is prompt. You can choose one BBQ item for $27 or two items for $29 plus a carton drink. For my lunch this day, I chose the char siu (BBQ pork) and the soy sauce chicken combo. Char Siu and Soy Sauce Chic
Char Siu and Soy Sauce Chicken ($29) - the portions were generous for the price and definitely filling. The chicken was well marinated as the skin was very tasty and flavorful in sweet soy sauce. The meat were a bit lean and not smooth enough. The ginger and green onion sauce provided was zesty and complimented the chicken very well. The char siu was fatty enough with a nice proportion of fat to meat. It was not as tender or sweet enough for my taste as I usually like my char siu to be glazed with honey. But then again, it was not bad for the price. I saw them pour what I thought was soy sauce over the rice but as I was eating the rice, I didn't taste any sauce in the rice which made it hard to eat as the rice was rough. It must have been some really light sauce that was poured. If they had provided a better sauce for the rice, I would go back in an instant. For now, they remind a cheap lunch option and just that.
