Some colleagues and I headed over to the King Ludwig Beerhall in Yuen Long after a seminar. I wasn't really expecting a lot. In fact, when I saw that the menu had Singapore noodles, and dumplings, and curries, I was about to give up on it. So in that sense it was a pleasant surprise.My second favorite thing about KL Beerhall was the enormous liter glasses. Can you see the coaster in this picture? No, you can't. Enough said. I got the Arcobrau lager, it was OK. But lots of it was awesome.The saus

The sausage platters don't live up to the high standards set by the beer. We started with the sausage platter for 1-2 people (there were 5 of us but we were getting lots of stuff). The sausages were teeny. The platter is more like for 1/2 to 1 person.
Still sausage-starved, we ordered the platter for 2-3, which was closer to a platter for 1-2. The white sausage on both platters was fantastic and a hit with everyone at the table. The darker red frankfurter type sausage was bad, with tough skin and a bad hot-dog flavor. The other sausages were "meh." I'd say skip the sausages here unless they have a whole plate of weisswurst (but I don't think they do). OK, C-
The sausages were salty, and so was the pork knuckle. It was also fatty and crispy. I think easily the star of the entire meal, but definitely way less good than what you'd get at Frites, for instance. There was less meat than I was expecting; it's about enough food for one person, if you're not sharing. Good, B+
The weinerschnitzel was genuine veal. With the lemon it came together pretty well. Nice and tender. Only about half of it is pictured above, so it's a decent sized piece of meat. Good, B+
I did not like the roast duck. It was really bland, and dry. I'm not the world's biggest duck fan, but I have had good duck and this wasn't it. Poor, D
Somehow we found room for chocolate cake. I probably don't need to tell you this but it was lousy. Hong Kong is just not competent with cake. OK, C-
My favorite thing about KL Beerhall was this. I'm rather fond of ridiculous things, and this place is indeed ridiculous. They had a live band playing Lionel Ritchie and Cyndi Lauper. Apparently they're going to have a "Cheesee Christmas," which is something I'm pretty sure Santa only brings to naughty boys and girls. And the service is excellent. Worth it, B+
