After passing by this little joint for over a year, my husband and I finally stepped inside to try some casserole rice.
*The one reason why we never tried it out was because of its name. We've been to restaurants that boast their 'good taste', and it pretty much guarantees one thing: a date with the toilet bowl after dinner.
However, after reading all the great reviews on Yelp about this restaurant, I was sold! I love the set meals they have. I got a salted fish with pork ribs and my husband got the pork ribs with black bean. The rice was soft, but not overly cooked; it was infused with the meat. After the meal, we still had leftover rice.
The only complaint I had was a) the wait is long....... So if possible I heard you can call ahead to pre-order. b) There wasn't enough time or perhaps heat to make the rice crispy on the side of the hot pot. I love it when the rice is so crispy it becomes a crispy light brown with lots of crunch.
The homemade soup came out in a little pot. The waitress advised us there was no salt in the soup, so you can add your own. +1 on no MSG or excessive salt in the soup.
Price/Value for the meal is very reasonable. It's cheaper than eating at the neighbouring HK cafe for a set dinner and a lot healthier. I'll be back to try their famous rice rolls as they had sold out that evening.
