Went here for dinner finally!Arrived at 5:00pm and there was already a queue! Finally was able to get a nice booth table at around 6pm, which was pretty long. Anyway, the appetizers were pretty good, especially the ones with the so-called cucumbers. The prawns were tasty as well.We ordered quite a number of dishes this time.1) 雞絲粉皮: that was excellent! The 粉皮 wasn't very thick and it had this strong peanut taste, but was not overdone!2) Xiao Long Bao: hm...the skin was very thin, but the fill
Arrived at 5:00pm and there was already a queue! Finally was able to get a nice booth table at around 6pm, which was pretty long.
Anyway, the appetizers were pretty good, especially the ones with the so-called cucumbers. The prawns were tasty as well.
We ordered quite a number of dishes this time.
1) 雞絲粉皮: that was excellent! The 粉皮 wasn't very thick and it had this strong peanut taste, but was not overdone!
2) Xiao Long Bao: hm...the skin was very thin, but the filling, i.e. the meat, tasted a bit weird. Could be better
3) Fried Ramen: very delicious, not overwhelmed with oil, but good enough. Could be much tastier though
4) Fish soup: anyway, this soup was just alright, nothing special and wasn't esp. tasty in particular
5) 清炒豆苗: again, excellent veggies, nothing too special about them
6) dessert of the day: 酒釀丸子: excellent! The dumplings were very soft and delicate! I was so surprised! The water was also not too sweet and just right!
7) 高力豆沙: again, this dish was excellent! The 豆沙 was so soft and delicate and each of them was huge! Good dish!
8) Also, I ordered a cold soya bean drink and it was excellent! Not too sweet either. Sweetness was just right!
All in all, this is a good place for dinner and is worth the wait! Very good food! We got 10% off as we left prior to 7:30pm. Still, the service could be improved as we always had to chase after the waiters/waitresses for our orders. They almost forgot to serve us the 酒釀丸子.
Anyway, food here is good, but service needs to be improved.
