5 of us for dinner. Seated in a window-facing booth. Could feel a headache coming along with the pinkish lighting and neon menu. Was eager to try the signature 避風塘炒蟹 but was told since we didn’t preorder, there weren’t any for us. Wanted to try the 馬友 also, but were told it’s sold out. Finally settled on the 烏頭. An insect crawled out from under a lemon slice upon taking the photo. Told server abt the insect and it generally appearing too pink (undercooked or cos of the lighting?) and requested a

Finally settled on the 烏頭. An insect crawled out from under a lemon slice upon taking the photo.
Told server abt the insect and it generally appearing too pink (undercooked or cos of the lighting?) and requested a replacement. Server apologetically declared that that was the last one available.
Suggested we tried the numerous skewers on offer but since we would’ve gone to a proper yakitori restaurant for those; didn’t oblige.
Rest of the meal was actually not bad. Here’s what we had.
香酥脆皮牛肋骨 with some watery gravy.
潮式滷水拼盤- meat was tender.
焗魚腸- I didn’t try any but apparently it was nicely done.
金銀蛋莧菜
No dessert available to finish off tho. Server did suggest trying the white-sugar coated egg. But nah…
In summary: not bad. Get 15% off of Booked thro OpenRice.
