Signature Dishes

  • Radish cake

    Crisp outside and tender inside with a noticeable cured-meat flavor; it may arrive later when freshly pan-fried, but it has a clear Hong Kong character.

  • Dry-fried beef ho fun

    When the wok hei comes through, the noodles are distinct and springy and the beef is tender; one serving also had insufficient wok hei and was merely ordinary.

  • Original French toast

    The egg coating is fried golden and crisp; melted butter with honey gives a hot-and-cold, sweet-and-salty contrast. The portion is small, but it is fresh and hot.

  • Crispy shrimp bean-curd roll

    The wrapper is crisp and not greasy, with a generously filled shrimp paste.

  • Beef rice with scrambled egg gravy

    The beef is tender and the seasoning is well balanced.

  • The seating is fairly tight and the aisles are narrow, making movement more constrained when the dining room is full.
