I was intending to dine at the famous Tak Lung Restaurant round the corner but it was packed with people so gave up and dined here.From the name of the joint I assumed they were famous for noodles but at the front they claim their pork trotters in vinegar sauce was also good too so I tried that.The joint is quite small but there were lots of interesting items on the menu such as the deep fried shaomai with salt and pepper so I tried that as well.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Porks trotter in vinegar se
From the name of the joint I assumed they were famous for noodles but at the front they claim their pork trotters in vinegar sauce was also good too so I tried that.
The joint is quite small but there were lots of interesting items on the menu such as the deep fried shaomai with salt and pepper so I tried that as well.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Porks trotter in vinegar served with rice:
When they came I was quite shocked by the colour. I have never seen BLACK vinegar sauce!It was almost as black as squid ink!
The vinegar they used tasted really nice and it was good quality as claimed.It was not too sweet and vinegary that I kept sipping spoonfuls of it, and the pork trotters were marinated well in this vinegar.
The texture of the pork trotter were extremely gelatinous and chewy, and the sauce tasted perfect with rice.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★Deep fried fish shaomai with salt and pepper:
The deep fried fish shaomai with salt and pepper was interesting so ordered it!I thought it was shaomai tossed in salt and pepper but when it came it was deep fried shaomai sprinkled with salt and pepper.
The taste was quite nice but the salt and pepper was clumped together so the taste of salt and pepper was not evenly distributed.★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Chicken wings in vinegar:
The chicken wings did not taste as nice as the pork trotters because they were not pre-marinated.The tofu pieces were panfried and crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and tasted nice when it was dipped with the salt and pepper from the Shaomai dish.
