To me, char siu can be separated into 2 tiers: those that you can find at high-end Chinese restaurants where you pay a premium for quality or those that you find at the local Chinese BBQ neighborhood shops. I know where I can get quality char siu at high-end restaurants like Lei Garden, Fu Sing and Mott 32, but I struggle to find good char siu at cheap prices at these random local Chinese BBQ shops.

It took a bit of a walk from the MTR station to get to the shop. There were only a few tables inside the shop for dining but a few more tables were available on the sidewalk. No AC so a bit uncomfortable to dine there in the hotter months.
I ordered the char siu rice plate which came with a daily soup. It was a winter melon roast duck soup which was very flavorful and refreshing to drink even in the warm weather. It's the real deal - not your typical MSG watery soup at all.
My char siu rice plate arrived as ordered with half-lean and half-fat char siu. The char siu was very tender and soft to eat as the ratio of lean meat to fat was perfect. I love the honey glaze on the pork which gave off a subtle yet sweet flavor.
Upon closer inspection, you can see the perfect distribution with pieces of lean meat connected by portions of fat.
Their other BBQ items look delicious too so I will probably do a take-out next time!
