I have dined in nearly 10 times since its opening.

To me, their signature dish is their breakfast.

Today, I have ordered the set breakfast plus turnip cake.

After the first bite of the turnip cake, I really want to shout out 'o-i-shi'

It is full of dried little shrimp and it is extremely hot. It is full of turnip. I will give a full mark for this.

The fried noodles are well fried, despite a little bit oily.

The beef and oyster congree is wonderful. It contains 3-4 thumb like size oysters. (unluckily, I don't eat oysters since childhood)

I can't held enchore for fried noodles.

Since I was sitting near the window of the kitchen, I saw the cooks measuring the amount of salt with a pound. How sincere they are towards cooking, hope they will continue and keep it up!

Except I really want to recommend their waitress should really look at the customers instead of always rashing from here and there.
And hope they will not charge extra service as it is a bit too expensive.

I always think that service plays a large role in a restaurant.

Of course, in HK, we couldn't expect excellent service but at least it should be up to standard.

Before commenting on the food, I have something to share about the nasty service in Domon.

Case 1:
I took the seat for 2. At that moment, it was 5 minutes before 6 in the evening. Only 30% was full. The waitress offered me the table. I saw there was 3 sofa seats for 2. I requested to have the sofa seats as it was still early as I was sure we could end the simple meal before 7:00 pm. Strangely, the waitress was not willing to do so as said, 'if there's 3-4 more people demanding the sofa seats, you have to give it back to us'
(do you think it is Tai Pang Dong? we have to give back the seats to you during eating the ramen in this 10% service charge restaurant?)

Case 2:
My relative and I used Groupon. As my relative is nearly 70 years old and the terms in Groupon were in very small words. We asked what food we could have if we used Groupon. The waitress said, ' All are written here already! ' in an extremely impolite way. I couldn't held 'staring' at her for her impolite service. My relative was still very patient, he demanded her to explain in detail. But, the waitress only repeated , 'All the food are written on the paper of Groupon already.'

to the power n.

My relative said, 'ok, then just follow what have been written there.' After a few minutes, the waitress said very loudly , 'It's not yet 6:00 pm, you can only order those at 6:00.' But according to our watch, it WAS ALREADY six. The waitress insisted, 'still ten minutes left according to their clock.'

Case 3:
My relative and I requested a glass of water and a pair of chopstick.. We have to order twice.

Case 4:
I saw the waitress accidentally hit the chair of one of the customers. The hot soup poured from her hand to the customer. Very luckily, only a bit was on the customers' bag. But, I can clearly see and hear that the waitress DID NOT say sorry at all. She just focused on cleaning the floor. The customer was very angry.

Case 5:
We asked to pay the bill. The waitress THREW the bill on our table. She said '$129'. My relative and I were very surprised as we already gave the Groupon paper to that waitress at the beginning, which means, we shouldn't pay except the extra service charge as we have paid on the internet when ordering the Groupon. See! The restaurant was so careless and wasn't caring at all. We had to reminded them 'It was Groupon!!!'

The food was lower than standard also.
We had butter ramen, salmon salad and pumpkin snacks.
Ramen is nothing more than like buying ramen in supermarket and pour some soup on it.
The soup was extremely salty.
The salmon sald was awful. The texture of salon was like messy and abnormally tender, like those have been put there for a long time.

I will NEVER go back to this restaurant as the service is horrible. The ten % service charge was not worthy.
Even if it was free of charge, I wouldn't never step into this restaurant and would spread around for their nasty service.

It has been nearly 10 years, when I often visit this restaurant.

I have tried different dishes, including thin cut steak, garlic sauce with chicken steak, baked minced beef spaghetti, minced beef rice, fried noodles, soup noodles....
The only word I want to say: Delicious.

The highlight is garlic sauce with chicken steak, red soup plus their toast. Love them. You can find beef inside their red soup.
The price is very reasonable, less than $50. Sometimes, you pay only $33+ extra fee for a set lunch with steak.

The most important is: the service is very good. It has been nearly 10 years, still every time I received excellent service. The staff are all very polite. And they are smart and always keep an eye on what you need after finishing each dish.

More.... you will never be expelled by the waiter. No matter how long you sit.
And ... as they have plenty of seats, usually you can find a seat very easily even though there are many customers inside.

Yes, it is more than a western restaurant with a 茶餐廳 price.
P.S. I have also tried Sai Wan's Nice. I think Sai Ying Pun one is cleaner than that one. And the food is tastier here also.
Don't expect too much on their milk tea and lemon tea. Their signature are the dishes.

I tried the baked potato skin.

It was well baked and full of tomato and onion.

The texture of potato skin was excellent and soft.

However, it was a bit spicy to me.

I went to the shop next to it to buy 'One Bite Dog'. Oops, the one bite dog was delivered by the shop keeper in 'Big Dog'. I think both shop was related. The sausage is wonderful.

P.S. There isn't any seat in this shop. All have to take away or stand aside to eat. Also, it is very hot to wait inside the shop.

Though having lived in SYP more than 20 years, I have never noticed this food shop.

Last week, I tried 3 dishes.

Siu Long Bao: Very high standard. Thin flour skin and very juicy inside. The pork inside is not too fat nor too lean. I have one bite all. The juice is so hot which hurt my mouth. Gotta not be so greedy.

Fried Shanghai thick noodles: The plate of dish contains at least 2 and a half bowls of noodles. It costs only $35. It is not oily. Pork and vegetables amount is even.

I can't stop eating as it was too delicious. So, I further ordered 5 dumplings. Usually a plate contains 10 dumplings, but I am afraid I couldn't finish all, so I ordered 5 only. The staff allowed me to do so, very flexible. When the dish arrived, there are 6!!! Bonus!
80% vegetables and 20 finely minced pork. I love it.

However, I start to get thirsty after eating Fried Shanghai noodles. So next time, I will only try Siu Long Bao and dumpling to see if I still get thirsty.

At night, I could held ordering of hand-tear chicken. Though the chicken seems very fresh. The taste could be stronger. And the texture is too coarse for me.

I would give a full mark for Siu Long Bao. I am sure you could hardly criticize it.

P.S Half of the custumers are speaking Putonghua there, I guess all are local mainland Chinese. I think it shows how local and fine dish they are, or else the local mainland Chinese wouldn't come.
