| - Came here for dinner for my Aunt's birthday dinner, contrary to our typical Cantonese banquet-style dinners at Crown Prince. I like the feel of this place, Crown Prince's atmosphere is stuffier, while it's a bit busier and more commonplace at DD - kind of like typical HK banquet restaurants.
Like all Cantonese dinners, it's family style, so we had a few large dishes: crab, steamed fish, stir fried steak bits, sweet and spicy eel on a small tortilla, and stir fried bok choy. Everything was okay, but the eel deserves special mention because of the crispy tortilla chip texture + the sweet and spiciness of the eel itself. The food here is a bit oilier than Crown Prince, but hey, fat is flavour right? The customary Chinese pastries and sweet soup (Tong Sui) were a little disappointing though. The Walnut sweet soup was way too sweet and the pastries were cold and dry.
Can't comment on price because I wasn't paying! But it seems comparable to places like Crown Prince.
Not a bad choice for dinner though out of a lot of Cantonese banquet restaurants I've tried.
