This restaurant is located conveniently on one of the most popular food streets in Shau Kei Wan. I remember walking past this restaurant a while ago and it used to look quite shabby, but since its renovation, the exterior and interior design has hugely improved, whilst maintaining a very humble, economical business.Firstly, they have various duo combo sets and we decided to order half a chicken and a steamed Sabah Grouper for $128.The Chicken was well cooked and the meat was tender and there was
Firstly, they have various duo combo sets and we decided to order half a chicken and a steamed Sabah Grouper for $128.
The Chicken was well cooked and the meat was tender and there was also a little bit of chicken oil at the bottom to keep the chicken juicy. The portion was huge as well, and if I didn't look carefully, I would've thought it was a whole chicken!
The Steamed Sabah Grouper was another success because it was perfectly cooked so that the meat could be easily separated from the bone, yet still maintaining a smooth texture. The soy sauce was not too overwhelmingly salty, which I thought went really well with the fish
The third dish we ordered was the Nostalgic Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs ($98). The sweet and sour sauce was consistent and thick, creating a stretchy texture. The crispy exterior of the meat contrasted well with its soft, meaty interior. Definitely a dish for sharing as it can get quite heavy.
We also decided to order the soup. The first being the Braised Chicken with Black Wolfberry Soup ($68) and the second was Stewed Pork Lung and Vegetable with Almond Juice ($58). Personally, I preferred the prior because it was a lot more flavourful, but they were both very delicious in general. I recommend orderly a large bowl instead if you have more people as it's cheaper that way.
Overall, the dishes were all above expectation and I was thoroughly impressed by the quality that this modest restaurant could produce!
