This is a very local restaurant which is a few blocks from my apartment.As a foreigner, finding a nice, reasonably price restaurant with delicious food is rare and challenging. This is 'wall city flavours'. It is situated along the end of a row of shophouses ('Tong Lau' in Cantonese) away from Ngai Tsin Wai road (the main artery road in kowloon city). Due to the MTR expansion, road works are presently being carried out right at its front door steps.The restaurant appears to be fairly well known
As a foreigner, finding a nice, reasonably price restaurant with delicious food is rare and challenging. This is 'wall city flavours'.
It is situated along the end of a row of shophouses ('Tong Lau' in Cantonese) away from Ngai Tsin Wai road (the main artery road in kowloon city). Due to the MTR expansion, road works are presently being carried out right at its front door steps.
The restaurant appears to be fairly well known locally, because whenever we are there, the restaurant is usually packed. Thus, we chose a Saturday lunch to avoid the crowd.
The restaurant decor is very oriental and chinese with very old chinese tables and paintings. It has several booth seats along the full glass facade on one side of the restaurant but the view is just MTR expansion.
For lunch we ordered:
1. Grilled suckling pig - HK$108
2. Claypot fried beef cubes - HK$88
3. Daily boiled soup - $24 ($12 each)
4. Fried mussels in XO sauce - $68
5. Rice - $12
6. Tea - $24 ($12 x2)
7. Service charge - 10%
The grilled suckling pig was fabulously grilled. Juicy and crunchy, the skin was almost perfect with no underlaying level of fats. This is a must have for this restaurant and they serve the suclkling pig in different portions at different price.
The fried beef cubes were marvellously fried. Similar to the pig, the beef was cruchy and very tasty. Very juicy very fresh.
The mussels were very 'sambal'. Very nicely fried and the mussels were all fresh as they were all opened shell. A little spicy but overall very very tasteful.
The boiled daily soup was the restaurant speciality. Unlike some other restaurant, where such soup were very diluted, the soup here has more 'body' and is tastier than others we have seen.
Overall, it was a pleasant meal.
We completed the meal with a promotion 'bird nest' dessert at HK$88.
Overall our meal cost HK$550.
Lastly, I must say that I have also tried their sweet and sour pork which itself was one of the best of such dishes I have tried.
