Amongst the many hidden gems of restaurants in Central, this one would ...just make the mark. Overall it was a pleasant experience, the first reason being its good value. Don't expect very wholesome portions, but for lunch, spending ~HK$100 for all courses of soup/spring roll, 1 dish 1 bowl of rice and dessert/fruit certainly qualifies. Plus the fact that the food, particularly the main course dish, tastes quite good, above average for sure. And don't forget its little gimmick of "Hakka" cuisine

Ambience ok, it's cute. Service ... ok I suppose. Took their time in giving us our bill, but there was a genteel-looking waiter who really fits what I would imagine as a "Hakka yeye", and was courteous and all.
We had the 鹽焗雞,百合蝦球, and separately ordered a dish of 雞翼(i don't seem to hv enough of chicken as of late), plus veggies. Erm, for two ppl haha. And we had our separate bowls of 三色飯, which I do appreciate for health reasons and not just your boring bowl of white rice. Anyway, I'd say the 鹽焗雞 and 百合蝦球 were certainly above average (4/5), but the chicken wings...can be given a miss. Portions, as I have alluded briefly above, are not huge. But enough, I guess.
Dessert was a bowl - small bowl - of 紫米露. Mm...given my sweet tooth...I'd say it's only mediocre.
Anyway, worth a shot! Or a backup plan to Friday lunch if you haven't made reservations in time...
