This place first opened a small joint in Tsuen Wan but it was too far way so I didn’t go, then they opened a slightly bigger branch in To Kwa Wan, but the MTR doesn’t go there.Finally, they have now opened a branch in the city!!!!This place is conveniently located round the corner from Slices.Anyway, sat down and looked at the menu, the menu was printed on Foamboards, which reminded me of projects and sourcing those shops to print them out.From a small joint in Tsuen Wan, they have now partnered
This place first opened a small joint in Tsuen Wan but it was too far way so I didn’t go, then they opened a slightly bigger branch in To Kwa Wan, but the MTR doesn’t go there.Finally, they have now opened a branch in the city!!!!
This place is conveniently located round the corner from Slices.
Anyway, sat down and looked at the menu, the menu was printed on Foamboards, which reminded me of projects and sourcing those shops to print them out.
From a small joint in Tsuen Wan, they have now partnered with a Printing company and a noodle factory.
It proves a good location is a good start because when they were in Tsuen Wan, there was not much media interest on this restaurant, and now that it is at an accessible location there are more magazines reviewing it.The food that is served here is basically noodles and dumplings.
I ordered the noodles with double roe with the same assumption as HKE, thinking it would be prawn roe and some other roe, but it was prawn roe and crab roe! The crab roe was weird though with these noodles.Overall the noodles and taste reminded me of the noodles at Yeung’s noodle. There was not much pork oil in it, which was good.

They are also famous for dumplings so I got the dumplings in soup and the pan fried ones.
There are so many flavours, so I got the watercress ones because not many places have watercress in dumplings.
They had so many choices for dumplings and you can choose to have them served in soup, pan fried or with chili sauce, similar to The dumpling house.

Watercress and pork dumplings:
The soup for the dumpling was quite strong, I could tasted fermented tofu in the soup (foo yue).
The dumplings were wrapped nicely, the wrap was very tight.
Chicken with lotus root dumplings (Panfried)These were also wrapped nicely, crunchy on the outside, the lotus root was diced finely.
I also tried the fried tofu balls which came with sweet chili sauce, I felt that the sauce didn’t match the tofu, anyway I dunked the tofu balls in the dumplings soup and it tasted much better.
The chicken wings were tastetess and dry, there was too much coating and oil.The only thing I liked about it was the fact the bigger of two wing bones was removed and the meat turned inside out, making it easy to eat.
