We love the many options here and especially the dumplings in soy sauce broth, and any of the beancurd dishes! Service is always so kind and helpful. The atmosphere is typical for local restaurants and fine.

My local friend took me here to try dumplings. I was blown away by all the food there. Their dumplings were by far the best. Something about the dough that makes them taste better than most. They have a homemade taste to them. The other food on the menu was just as good, with the same fresh, homemade taste. On top of that, the pries for the food were very cheap. My friend and I ate a lot of food, and our bill was way lower than expected. I've been all around Hong Kong, but this has been my favorite restaurant so far.

Good lunch set. Friendly staff and tasteful dishes in a good portion. I wouldn’t mind coming back for quick grabs anytime. Quality is never compromised here.

They got many vegetarian options and the foods are quite traditional I guess and I loved it. I ordered soup noodle with something gluten and mushroom because I have a stomachache and it was good. The staffs were very gentle and kind and overall atmosphere was very calm which I really like. I will come back here next time.

They offer set menus for solo diner, 2 and 4 people. I ordered a set for one at HK&188 that comes with starters, main, rice and dessert. Tasted quite good.
