The 7 of us start the meal with Chrysanthuem Pu Er 菊普 ($3++/pax) tea for all. I order a number of dishes to accompany the plain rice 丝苗白饭 ($2++/ bowl).
Roasted Crispy Pork (Siu Yok), Barbeque Pork (Char Siu) and Roasted Duck.
The meat is served with plum sauce, mustard sauce and chilli sauce. The meats are well charred and tastes juicy and yummy.
It tastes crunchy but a bit bland in taste.
It does not taste spicy but rather strong in a vinegar taste.
This soup is full of flavours. The fish is so tender that one can feel the bones melt in the mouth.
Double Boiled Soup of the Day 时日炖汤 (RM14.80++/bowl)
The soup of the day is Lotus root with pork rib soup. It tastes full bodied and flavourful.
The sliced fish looks more like deep fried than pan-fried.
I am surprised at its huge serving. The chicken is quite tender and flavourful.
This is the only dish in the restaurant which can be considered vegetarian according to the staff. It gives a nutty and crunchy texture.
I am a bit disappointed with this dish as I could find the salted egg yolk in it. The taste is also a bit too bland.
We end the meal with desserts such as Chilled Mango Sago with Pomelo 杨䃽甘露 (RM8.80++/glass), Glutinous Dumplings with Red Bean Paste 红豆沙汤丸 (RM7.80++/bowl), Teochew Sweet Yam Paste 潮州芋泥羮 (RM6.80++/bowl) and Almond Tea 手磨杏仁蛋白茶 (RM8.80++/bowl). But the desserts fail badly. The Chilled Mango Sago with Pomelo 杨䃽甘露 is served in glass, looking rather white, instead of the usual bright yellow in color. Although there is mango taste, but it is rather faint and I could not taste any pomelo in it.
Overall there is hits and misses in this restaurant. Best just have the main dishes and go other place for desserts. The desserts are simply a waste of money and stomach space. The service here is not bad, with tea refilled regularly. There is also free wifi been offered here. The place is quite crowded during peak dinner time, so best visit it early.
