After my godfamily was treated to dinner at Yung Kee back in May, my godfather has been saying that he has to treat my grandmother to the marvelous Stewed Goose in Casserole!  So, come August, my godfather invited my whole family to Yung Kee for dinner.  
Our table was located on the fourth floor of the restaurant, which can be reached by elevator, and has a more elegant decor than the general dining area on the ground floor,  Since the dinner was my godfather's treat, and he set the menu, I have no idea about the price of the dishes.

In addition to roast goose, Yung Kee is famous for their preserved eggs, which they have even packaged as souvenirs that you can buy!  What makes this preserved egg so special?  It embodies all the qualities that a good preserved egg must have!  The egg white has a stiff jellylike consistency that doesn't fall apart, the yolk remains creamy and hasn't solidified completely, and the egg itself has a distinctive pungent flavor.  Most preserved eggs on the market is missing at least one of the criteria.

Deep Fried Sea Cucumber Buckles with Peppercorn Salt: I was wondering what sea cucumber buckles were, so I looked it up, and they are sea cucumber guts.  The sea cucumber buckles had a crunchy texture, and the peppercorn salt batter gave it a pop of flavor!

Barbecued Pork: The barbecued pork looked lean, but it was incredibly tender, and it was coated in a delectable smoky honey sauce!

Soy Marinated Chicken: The soy marinate had the perfect balance of sweet and saltiness, and the chicken was quite tender!  I just wish there was some extra sauce on the side!

Fried Prawn Wrapped in Beancurd Sheet: The Chinese name of this dish roughly translates to dragon wrapped in golden chiffon which is quite poetic!  The fried prawn (dragon) had an enticing bouncy texture, and it was wrapped in perfectly crispy beancurd sheets (golden chiffon)!

Braised Garoupa's Tail with Bitter Melon: I'm not a fan of either garoupa or bitter melon, so I didn't have this dish, but it is grandma's favorite, so my godfather always orders this dish for her!

Stewed Goose in Casserole: After hearing XO raving about this dish for months, I finally got to try it, and it definitely lived up to the hype!  The casserole was composed of basically the whole goose minus its extremities, so the innards and coagulated blood were also part of the casserole!  Since the casserole is layered with the components of the goose, my brother and I were like digging for treasure when the casserole got to us!  The coagulated blood was silky and tender and was completely devoured by the guests after the casserole went around the table once!

The goose meat was still tender albeit being in a casserole.  The gizzard was crunchy but not tough!  The liver was soft, tender, and smooth and had an almost jiggly texture.

The casserole was served with thick vermicelli (lai fun).  The lai fun was served dry, so we could ladle the broth from the casserole into the bowl of lai fun!  The broth from the casserole was completely infused with yummy goose flavor, and the thick vermicelli was the perfect vehicle for the bold flavor!  The tofu puff was also soaked with the broth and went delightfully with the lai fun!  When the casserole came around again, I dug and found a piece of the goose heart, and it had the ideal toothsome texture!  
I knew that Yung Kee is infamous for their roast goose, but this goose casserole is equally amazing!  You can get delicious roast goose at other restaurants, but I doubt you can find this casserole!

Mini Crab Roe Dumplings: What is mini crab roe?  It's not a minuscule-sized crab roe, but rather the roe of a minuscule crab.  As you can tell from the photo, the dumpling skin was perfectly thin and translucent!  The skin of the dumpling wrapped around the delicate filling which was infused with the distinctive mini crab roe flavor!  The pillowy dumpling had such a bold flavor yet such a delicate texture!

The Egg Fritters had an impeccable light puffy texture with just the right crunch factor!  I got to drizzle my fritter with the extra honey we asked to be served on the side!

I used to dislike sesame ball cookies because they used to hurt my teeth when I bit into them as a child.  I wasn't going to have one of these, but my brother said these were different, so I decided to give it a shot!  These Sesame Ball Cookies at Yung Kee were nothing like the ones I had in the past!  The aromatic cookie was crunchy but broke apart as I sunk my teeth into it!  The texture was much lighter and the sesame balls had an airiness to them!  
After hearing godbro XO rave about the stewed goose casserole was months, I was so excited that I finally got to try it, and it was even better than expected!  Even grandma, the picky eater, was saying how much she loved the dish!  Thanks godfather for the treat!  
P.S. Please note that quite a few dishes on this menu need to be reserved in advance!
