After a long hiatus from Hong Kong, I’m pleased to return and a find a happy little restaurant in the bustling streets of Jordan. J&L Kitchen offers up Cantonese cuisine at reasonable prices, you’re looking at around HK$150 per head for dinner.We only had time for a quick meal and were happily directed by the staff to a few signature dishes from their extensive menu. First up, slow-cooked pork knuckle. I don’t know about you but everytime I see pig knuckle on the menu I just have to have it and
We only had time for a quick meal and were happily directed by the staff to a few signature dishes from their extensive menu. First up, slow-cooked pork knuckle. I don’t know about you but everytime I see pig knuckle on the menu I just have to have it and this place serves it up just the way I like it – crispy skin! The slow cooking preserves the juices keeping the meat deliciously tender, which sets the stage for a happy marriage of Chinese herbs and spices to an unctous schweinshaxe.
Next, the sweet and sour prawns were a pleasant surprise, as I was expecting the usual gluggy mound of fluoro orange you see at most diners. Instead we were greeted with a plentiful plate of fluffy bites accompanied by a light soy based sauce that struck the perfect balance between sweet and sour. The prawns themselves were coated in a crispy batter protecting the soft and juicy flesh within. Definite staple dish…
To round out the meal, we got a simple veggie dish of choy sum fried with dried scallop. As expected, greens nicely tossed in the wok with enough sauce and not too salty. *apologies no imageThe dishes were served promptly and all together, which would make this a great lunch spot too. Looking forward to our next visit!!
