Came here one late night for supper, but not sure which shops are more worthy of visiting to be honest as we did not do prior research. I have definitely been to more than one of these shops before but I can't remember which one, as its becoming confusing now that everyone opened multiple outlets but without enough customers! 喜記 only started having the All-You-Can-Eat afterwards so here we came.SAN MIGUEL BEER - Philipino beer with Chinese Crabs!

SAN MIGUEL BEER - Philipino beer with Chinese Crabs! They don't have much other sensible choices.
椒鹽瀨尿蝦, MANTIS SHRIMP - Asked for an extra-large Female Version with Roe! I actually wanted to eat this in a more natural way, such as steamed or boiled, but my friend wanted a bit of 'fiery kick' in the dish so I was ok with her choice. When this came, it wasn't cooked enough, it was still slimey inside and transparent, despite being fresh. You know, this costed like $300 believe it or not, ridiculous for only 1 piece.
橋底辣蟹 - I ordered this Signature dish thinking it's actually Fried Chili Crab, similar to the Malaysian or Thai style, but out come 避風塘炒辣蟹! That means, the taste is nearly the same as the above Mantis Shrimp dish. This dish is called 避風塘炒蟹 everywhere else in Hong Kong, I don't know why it carries a slightly misleading name here. But if I have to blame, I guess I'm half responsible for letting my guard down and being a bit mixed up between the cuisines! This was ok-good, the crab didn't have too much 泥味 either, but didn't have much crab taste. The flavours haven't penetrated into the meat enough either, and it wasn't chili at all.
葱油雞 - This has a special pricing policy and only costs very little as an incentive to draw in customers. The chicken had slight chicken taste, but it was very tough and the sauce was slightly artificial, like sweetened soy sauce. Left nearly untouched.
OVERALL - The quality of the food isn't good enough to justify for the very expensive prices - my experience at 屯門's 海天花園酒家 was heaps better and much more refined and sophisticated, that has to be one of the best seafood restaurants around - it was even less expensive. Service however was amazingly good, the waitstaff always replenishing us with Tea and Wet Paper Towels without asking - liked that a lot! Not sure I'd return in a hurry though. Later research of the other 2-3 major competitors around here, show some promise as well at lower prices.
A MID '2' to MID '3' at most.
