Have been wanting to try out this place for a while so finally plucked up the courage (just read the other reviews!) and went with a friend who was equally gung-ho. We just thought if the queue was too long, we would go eat somewhere else.Arriving at almost 1pm, the place was more or less full but there was no one else waiting, so we decided to hang around.

Arriving at almost 1pm, the place was more or less full but there was no one else waiting, so we decided to hang around. Lo and behold, we had a table in 5 minutes! While the restaurant was done up fairly nicely, the tables upstairs were tiny and they were very closely packed. Unless you get the tables by the window with the ledge, there is nowhere to put your bags. So in that sense, it was like a night market, but then this was not night market price...
On to the menu. There were 8 or 9 set lunch choices, each comprised a main, 3 small dishes and a tea which could be upgraded to bubble teas at $15 extra. I picked the beef noodles in soups and N chose the deep-fried pork chop with rice. N liked his lunch which looked nicely done. My noodles was ok. There were equal amounts of meat and tendon, both tender enough but not mushy. But like most beef noodles, the soup lacked depth... The 3 small side dishes were alright, the tofu with preserved egg and the aubergine better than the scrambled egg with tomato which obviously was cooked and chilled early that morning.
So what's the verdict? For $120 pp in Central, given the portion and quality, it's adequate. The service wasn't terrible, though some (not all, I must stress) wait staff could do with a smile. I won't dismiss it, but not eager to go back in the near future either.
