Came to this place with high expectations based on good things heard from friends. Really wanted to try their famous chicken, but were told when ordering that there were none left! This was at 7:30pm! It must be really great then... Instead settled on three simple dishes to try out, one was a hit, the other a big miss...Started with the meat patties, which was actually an afterthought where ordering.

Started with the meat patties, which was actually an afterthought where ordering. We only ordered this because everything else we wanted was not available. But they were surprisingly juicy and tender and full of flavour and was actually really nice. A must try for anyone who has not before.
We also ordered some scallops with vermicelli as an entree. They were ok, very average, tasty sauce, but the scallops were not that fresh or that big at all. Not worth the price.
The main dish we tried though and were looking forward to was their pork liver pot. Sounded great in principle, but when we tasted it, it was dry and lifeless. Was obviously made from frozen liver, and this led to a stiff consistency and not enough flavour soaked within the liver itself. A terrible disappointment.
Same can be said about the service. The serving staff seem to give preference to the regulars, and at one stage, we were served the wrong dish from a waiter, who then had the courage to blame us for not ordering clearly. What happened to the customer is always right?? Given all the great things we heard from this place, it was average at best, and would need to think hard before coming back.
