Restaurants are thriving in Wanchai, and people are not deserting the area after work.There are so many new and modern restaurants popping up that old ones are slowly disappearing away like Prawn noodle shop and Charlies place.I visited 大發茶餐廳 in 2011 where it was filled with regular diners who would give fresh faces a death stare when you went it.All that has changed and it seems they are in competition with new restaurants nearby in the weekends and evenings.I went on a Sunday when it was quiet
There are so many new and modern restaurants popping up that old ones are slowly disappearing away like Prawn noodle shop and Charlies place.
I visited 大發茶餐廳 in 2011 where it was filled with regular diners who would give fresh faces a death stare when you went it.
All that has changed and it seems they are in competition with new restaurants nearby in the weekends and evenings.
I went on a Sunday when it was quieter.
To my surprise they now have an English menu. Ordered my favourite blood curds and two other dishes which I have not tried before,
I wanted to order the salt and pepper white baits again but I didn't.
+++++
Blood curds: Compared to the blood curds served a few years ago, they were not so oily this time with less garlic and chili but still delicious.
+++++++++++++
Lemon chicken: You can evidently see two colours, a lighter piece (bottom) and a dark one (top).
The lighter one is obviously fresh and the darker one was fried twice or from yesterday which should be crispier and it was.
Anyway, it was surprisingly delicious because the lemon sauce was tart enough and not cloyingly sweet.
[From observation in UK, Chinese Takeaways will normally mix fresh and old Lemon chicken so that you don't serve a customer all the old stuff and plus it won't taste nice so they won't come back.]
+++++++++
Salted fish and preserved veg pork patties: The patties looked dry but they were not and the salted fish in the patties were really delicious.
+++++++
Visits in 2011 and 2012.
