Went to Hakka YeYe with a friend. We ordered a lot of dishes coz we were also taking the leftover home for my bf. Here are our reviews of the dishes:1. Stir-fry Eggplant Cubes with Tofu (Slightly Spicy) 茄子粒豆腐 : the no meat option...it's pretty tasty, we liked the crunchy tofu;2. Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Vegetables 西施梅菜扣肉: That's definitely the highlight of the night, the fatty pork is super yummy, melt in your mouth...3.

Here are our reviews of the dishes:
1. Stir-fry Eggplant Cubes with Tofu (Slightly Spicy) 茄子粒豆腐 : the no meat option...it's pretty tasty, we liked the crunchy tofu;
2. Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Vegetables 西施梅菜扣肉: That's definitely the highlight of the night, the fatty pork is super yummy, melt in your mouth...
3. Pan Fried Pork Patties with Salted Fish Bits 魚香煎肉餅 : the taste of the patties is really good, but it's slightly over-done, it's a bit burned...
4. Stir-fry Bitter Melon Strips with Egg White 芙蓉涼瓜: this is definitely no my dish, but my friend wanted bitter melon. The egg white was placed separately on top of the bitter melon, which is a bit strange. The bitter melon was poached, so making it a bit watery.
5. Golden Pumpkin Cooked with Salted Egg Yolks 鹹蛋黃炒南瓜: this is another winner, love the salted egg yolks as the crust of the pumpkin cubes.
6. Yé Yé Fried Vermicelli with Hakka Rice Wine 爺爺糟汁炒米粉: a strong tasting vermicelli, I like the rice wine taste, but it doesn't seem to fit in with the vermicelli that well.
Free dessert soup of purple rice with coconut milk, very nice.
The overall dining experience was very pleasant with nice service, quite environment, and good food.
But this is the strange part: we took the leftover home. I made a special thing about leaving two big pieces of fatty pork for my boyfriend (he's a fatty pork person). When we got home, there was no fatty pork in the box ! Only a small chewy bit and the preserved veggies!!!!! That makes you wonder whether they are re-serving the fatty pork to someone else!!!!
