This unknown restaurant is favoured by locals and hikers but the food is definitely worth sharing. 80% of the menu is vegetarian dishes using tofu or gluten but 10% is of chicken, pork, and beef whilst the remaining 10% is the seafood which requires preordering in advance. Started with their 粟米鱼肚羹, this stew is chockfull of bouncy fish stomach and corn with bits of pork and strands of egg. A large pot was enough for 10 bowls. Their 荔茸酥卷 (taro in tofu skin roll) is so addictive. The taro is cream

Their 荔茸酥卷 (taro in tofu skin roll) is so addictive. The taro is creamy and savory whilst the tofu skin is fried to crispy perfection with a shattering bite. You can dip this in a sweet a sour sauce which takes it to the next level.
Another amazing vegetarian dish is their 豉油王炒面 (soy sauce fried noodles) which is a common dish that is often executed poorly but here it is perfect. Amazing wok hei to the point where there are charred marks on noodle strands and bean sprouts. Not greasy at all but glossy with distinctive strands. Small bits of carrot for additional sweetness and crunch. A dish executed flawlessly.
Their 沙姜鸡 is also deceptively delicious. Crispy skin with well-cooked lean chicken meat and great seasoning. I heard the chicken is raised by the owner himself.
Last but not least, I’m gonna shine a spotlight on their dessert. Homemade cashew sweet soup (糖水) or 腰果糊 which is not a common nut paste. The one here is creamy with an intense cashew flavour that inhibits sweetness and makes for a perfect ending. The kind owner also gave us some 栾樨饼 which is sorta like mugwort rice cake but made with Pluchea indica from their own garden. Filled with red bean or lotus seed paste and its a great not-too-sweet treat.
This is definitely a restaurant you want to check out if you plan on going to Tai O but make sure you call them in advance at 2985 5459 to make reservations. To get here, take bus 11 from Tung Chung and get off at the Tai O stop, then walk along the red bridge until the end and you should come across this restaurant.
