On a Saturday evening dinner, we were seated immediately. The restaurant was almost full. The staff courteous and could converse with ease. The interior was done well and clean.
We ordered a medium Hot and Sour Soup which came out in a few minutes. The colour not the usual Hakka style as it looked more brownish and many of the Hakka soups were dark Soya Sauce coloured. The temperature not too hot. The spice level more towards mild or medium rather than spicy. The sourness was OK. Would have loved some fresh veggies in it.
We also got a Veggie Fried Rice, a Veg Manchurian, a Veg Hakka Chowmein and a Mixed Vegetables in Hot Garlic Sauce. And yes a bowl of plain rice. The plain rice quantity was amazing.
We requested less oil to be used in Fried Rice and Chowmein. The rice was done properly but not the noodles. The Rice although good, lacked the spicy flavour that comes along with Hakka food. The same for noodles as well. The quantity was fairly good.
The Veggie Manchurian was perfectly done. The mini pakoras Fried to perfection and sauced just with the right amount of spice. However the quantity was a big miss. When you compare the rice and Chowmein the Manchurian felt as it was half plate.
And that's we had to order the mixed veggies in garlic sauce. Same the quantity was way too less. The dish also lacked garlic flavour. I have had this dish elsewhere and you felt garlicky at first bite, here it felt that garlic was probably a side spice.
A good place, but they need to re-think about their quantity on some of their dishes.
