Old joint, new chef — and the food absolutely sings. Dish after dish felt thoughtfully cooked, confidently seasoned, and quietly excellent. 金沙涼瓜 The bitter gourd kept its crunch and gentle bitterness, wrapped in a light, sandy coat of salted-egg yolk. The saltiness played off the natural bitterness in a way that felt familiar yet freshly done. 蜜汁叉燒 Mostly lean, lightly laced with fat, and surprisingly tender. It held its juices so well I forgot to take a photo until only three slices remained—a good sign in itself. 涼拌木耳青瓜 A simple dish elevated by restraint: vinegar, soy sauce, a whisper of Sichuan pepper oil, and sesame oil balanced so the clean flavours of cucumber and wood ear still led the experience. 椒鹽豆腐 Crisp shell, custardy interior, and garlic fried until crunchy — not the overly salty version you often get elsewhere.

Our HK relatives recently hosted us to dinner there. They ordered honey-glazed charsiew pork, grilled pigeon, crabmeat-dried shrimp vermicelli hotpot, crispy suckling pig 1/2, pan-fried halibut-fillets with mushroom, enoki and squash, fish-maw with pop-rice hot-pot, and "thousand-layered rice-cake, ginger-flavoured" and mango-pomelo dessert as well. All the food items were highly enjoyable and memorable! Ambience was rather loud, boisterous and enlivening at times, as the place soon filled up very quickly with happy and hungry diners (especially some who were "long-time-no-see" type), as night progressed. Staff were highly attentive to diners' cues and needs, without being obtrusive. We truly liked our dining experience there!

Place was located in 3rd floor with elevator, so that was really appreciated. Space is tighter compared to others and was really loud. However, it was one of the best restaurants we've eaten at in HK in terms of Food and Service. We've added it to our favorites!

Generous portion and reasonable priced. Over all food tastes great, it’s free corkage, so most tables have several bottles on table.

Lunch with family here. Food is good with high quality. All dishes served hot. Delicious. Busy with full house. So a bit noisy but we still had a happy lunch. Will come back.
