| - A meal is so much sweeter after you've worked for your meat. In this case, that'd be the trek it took me to get here. Armed with a couple of dining friends, we descended on Keung's: ravenous, anxious, curious.
Curious: Keung's 2 menus offer both Hong Kong style cafe options like spaghetti and tomato sauce, an array of congee, rice noodle dishes, hot pots, soups, spicy meats, and some standard dishes like lemon chicken and chicken cashew. If you're choice adverse, better let someone else do the picking!
Anxious: Not unlike other Cantonese restaurants I've encountered, service was slow. We had to wave down a server. Eye contact and arm waving doesn't always work. Come prepared to work for their attention. This, however, was all quickly forgotten when the free soup arrived. Drink it, it's quite delicious. Also, red bean soup is offered for dessert. If you've saved room, go for it!
Ravenous: We ate like kings: garlic eggplant hotpot, chicken with rice noodles, spicy beef - served in a cone and tinfoil, and chicken with cashew.
The winner? Eggplant hotpot. Warning: watch for the spicy beef - it be VERY spicy!
We left stuffed, with enough food left over for breakfast and lunch the following day. Big portions, decent prices ($45 for all that), housed in a contemporary setting. Final judgement: I'd make the trek again.
