| - I have been coming here since I was a little boy with my Chinese family. It pretty much spiked my tongue to intense flavours, before I started visiting hoity toity restaurants and eating tartare, terrines, and pate.
The quality is very VERY good here and the lady who's been serving me all these years is always friendly. Warning though. there are no pictures on their menus, but it's a good thing. This place is just THAT good.
I like how you still get complimentary soup and dessert after all these years. Note the prices are still good, so don't worry if you aren't interested in the freebies.
I almost always get yang chow fried rice here, it's my favourite in the city without being too oily or salty.
I also enjoy:
-crab claws: are nicely warm moist and chewy inside the light crisp covering.
-seafood in taro bird nest looks wonderful and has some nice big shrimp.
-sweet and sour pork
-lobster (better to order when visiting with a group)
-deep fried shrimp balls: similar to the crab claw, so opt for that if on a budget.
-sautee beef in hot pot
-deep fried soft shell crab...oh yeah baby
-julienne beef (so tasty, served on little light crunchy noodles and topped with a rainbow medley of peppers and veggies
-mapo tofu (choose medium spice for good balance of flavour)
-steamed fish or chicken with ginger and scallion sauce, ooh so basic and yummy
-crispy fried chicken, the skin is slick shiny and smooth, thin, and crunchy
.....
- there is also a special fried rice for $17 which is pretty much a secret menu offering of a fried rice jacked up with fine seafood.
