Haven't been to this restaurant for quite many years and now they renamed themselves as 美食館. I can say the pickled baby onion & steamed rice 喬頭&白飯 are very nice. Well, if the prices are not that of high end restaurants, I would say it's a nice local "tea restaurant" quality.
Photo 4/5: 4 beans fish soup 四豆鰂魚湯 HK$98. The soup is quite ok but they put water in the middle of the long hour boiling. Why it's because the flavour is very shallow but the ingredients are very soft after long hour of boiling. So at the local tea restaurant's level, it's a nice one, but when they charge HK$98, I would say it's much over-priced. Besides, no fish flavour and as I asked, they said "it's already mashy into the soup that you wouldn't find it. Really interesting.
Photo 6: Satay beef glass noodle casserole HK$98. I think among all the dishes, this one seems to be more decent.
Photo 7: Pei Pa duck 琵琶鴨 (half) HK$148. When it was served, I noticed heavy sauce is on the bottom of the plate and I wonder if it's a BBQ duck. For those who have tried Pei Pa duck, they should know it's kind of salty aromatic and a bit dried out due to the duck body being stretched like pei pa for roasting. That results in a drier duck meat texture. So if you want BBQ duck, this is the one.
10-12: prevered veggie on choy yuen (middle stem of choy sum) HK$98. The taste is ok, but the big mistake is on the choy yuen. Again if its' a local tea restaurant, it's ok. First, they should cut the bottom part of the choy sum (which should be used for fried rice) and the flower part. My grand ma would complain if she saw that I didn't cut out the flower part for stir frying this veggie. She claimed that part of flower part is not good for health.
13: seasame dumpling HK$28: First and as you can see, the sweet soup is plain sugar water (white sugar), second it's just luke warm. third the dumpling is not freshly made. The proper one should be at least it's in a ginger soup, then with yellow rock sugar and the dumpling shouldn't like this.
14: almond tea HK$28: I should treat it as "rice" tea. It's in much of rice flavour.
