This restaurant has been listed in my target list to try, however I have walked past it so many times I have never noticed it.Firstly its menu is very confusing and from the outside it is hard to see what food they do.Then recently I faintly noticed it, because they had a poster of snowflake ice, however it still did not draw my attention to look into it further, as the dessert was just an extension to their sets, and the picture still didn’t show me what food they did, so a bit risky to go in a

Then recently I faintly noticed it, because they had a poster of snowflake ice, however it still did not draw my attention to look into it further, as the dessert was just an extension to their sets, and the picture still didn’t show me what food they did, so a bit risky to go in and have food because of their dessert. Usually I would do, if the dessert looks very good, but there are many snowflake ice specialists around.
Finally today, as the restaurant I wanted to have dinner was closed, and the weather was hot and sticky, and I was too lazy to walk, I decided to try this place.
The surroundings in the restaurant was very noisy, we sat close to the entrance, so it wasnt much cooler than the outside, also we could smell cigarettes and traffic fumes, perhaps a door would have been helpful???????
When I looked at the menu, I finally realised it was one of the restaurants I wanted to try, so it wasn’t that bad afterall. I wanted to try this place because I have tried 八方雲集鍋貼水餃專門店 at prince edward, and this is just another version of it, however the choice of dumplings are fewer but the ordering list is just as confusing as that one. So I give them credit for copying the ordering sheet with exact complicatedness like that one!
Anyway ordered noodles with soup dumplings, and the Jade pan fried dumplings with noodles (instant noodles from their picture).
The instant noodles was the first to arrive, indeed they were the instant noodles, but flatter in shape and springy in texture, next to arrive was the soup dumplings, good quality meat inside the dumpling, and then the pan fried dumplings came, very crispy, and folded into long retangular dumplings just like 八方雲集 instead of normal cresent shaped ones.
To compliment the dumplings there were four essential sauces on the table, ground garlic puree, chili sauce ( I really liked this concoction, it had whole black beans in it), vinegar and soy sauce.
