| - Ironically, the only thing I did not enjoy at Luckee was their traditional dim sum. We got Luckee Baskets to start, which featured pieces of Har Gow (shrimp), Siu Mai (shrimp, chicken mix) and Long Xia Gow (lobster and asparagus). My friend and I agreed these were tasty, but not particularly remarkable. The fourth and final piece contained wagyu beef, and was (for a lack of a better words) "meh", bordering on "ew".
Aside from this one misstep, the food was great. To start the meal off, they provided edamame and a selection of condiments, including an interesting green onion sauce. The Chicken Cheung Fun blended textures and flavours beautifully. The signature duck (Peking style wraps - duck and the crispy skin served with relishes, garnishes such as green onion, green apple, and cilantro, and pancake paper on the side, so you can create your own "wraps") was superb. It did remind me heavily of Lee's duck dish at his eponymous restaurant however.
Service was efficient. Our waitress was nice enough to offer to bring us extra pancakes for our duck dish without us even asking (quite attentive), and recommend the house sake, which was quite smooth and not overly sweet.
I would probably come back to try the crispy prawn dish with "golden sand", which seemed popular. Even if it doesn't taste amazing, it would make a beautiful Instagram!
