Traditional Chinese BBQ shops are distinguishing in Hong Kong under the high surge of property rent. Extra effort in travelling is worthy for visiting shops with good quality such as this one.

a) Roast goose (leg portion) and BBQ pork ($130) – 8.5/10


The skin of the goose was pretty thin with not much fat beneath it, however, unlike peking duck, not all the skin is crispy. The meat was juicy and well seasoned.

The BBQ pork was tender, especially the fat was condensed and shrunk to some chewy tendon like.

b) Rice vermicelli ($10) – 6/10


Not of good quality but went well with the BBQ sauce from the goose and BBQ pork.

c) Boiled kale ($11) – 8/10


Unlike many of the wanton noodle shops that serve poor quality vegetables, the kales on this dish were strong and still tender, and more stems than leaves.


Q : When will I go again?
A : Good to visit by yourself or in a small group up to 4 before your next stop for dessert or coffee in the area round. Shop opens till 1am but wonder if there are still food available. Closes on Sundays.
Q: What will I next order?
A : Heard that the white chicken is also worth trying.
