I went during lunch time where they had a lunch set menu. Menu is in English and Chinese. For $78, you get an appetizer, main and drink.
My soybean drink was served in a large glass. I was a bit taken aback as most places give me a smaller glass. The taste was really sweet. They were not kidding when they said it was sweet soy milk. It oddly tasted like Vitasoy. Not that I dislike Vitasoy. It just tasted like it.
The appetizer I chose was marinated cucumber. Now, this was a pretty huge portion for an appetizer. Most places give you a few pieces to bite on. This was piled high. Cucumbers were crisp though chopped haphazardly. It had a strong taste of sesame.
The main I chose was noodles in soup with spare ribs. The spare ribs were seasoned well but they also were very oily. The coating wasn't crispy enough but at least the meat wasn't dry.
The bowl of noodles was huge. Not just the bowl but the actual amount of noodles in it. Very chewy with no starchy aftertaste. Quite good and they cut them into bite size pieces as well.
For $78 (+10% service charge) with large portions is a pretty good deal. No wonder this is the only one with a queue during lunch hour in this building. I'll be back.
