| - I like getting a great deal for what I pay. This place has good food, but the prices seem a tad high given the quality of the food I'm getting.
Had:
Steamed rice noodle roll with dough fritters (M) - small portion. The rice noodle roll did have small dried shrimps and chives in it, but the dough fritters weren't crispy enough.
Phoenix claw (S) - Chicken feet in a sweet/savory/mildly spicy sauce. Delicious.
Braised duck feet with turnip (M) - good, but it wasn't turnip. It was some kind of savory Chinese melon.
Bean curd sheet with chicken and fish maw (L) - Delicious, but expensive.
Pancake with Chinese sausage, chives, and turnip? (L) - crispy on one side. Needed to be crispy on both. Still good though. Decent portion for price...kinda...
Bean sheet roll with veggies inside (S?M? I can't remember) - tasty, but once again, not cheap.
Steamed dumpling with king oyster mushroom and baby veggies inside (L) - 3 dumplings to an order. Good sized dumpling, but for what was inside, quite expensive. I believe the baby veggies were bok choy. One of the highlights of my meal.
Spare ribs (S?M? I also can't remember) - taro cubes as filler on the bottom. Spare ribs were not as tender as I'd like. They also weren't evenly cut. I had this really big piece that was made of like 4 smaller connected pieces. Not cool.
Service: Fairly good, but they forgot our order twice (once for Chinese mustard, and once for getting boxes). That second time was slightly irritating. We had to ask again, and the lady who we asked for boxes said, "Of course we can get you boxes" in a fairly condescending tone. We then told her the first server had forgotten and she apologized. Still, not cool.
Lots of people for lunch, even on a weekday. We went at 2pm and they had almost a full house. Reservations recommended.
