Ordering Strategy

What to order
King Prawn Cheung Fun
Described as a 'paragon of the genre,' these are made from scratch on-site rather than brought in from a wholesaler.
Sizzling Seabass in Black Bean Sauce
This dish is described as being 'a sizzle above the rest,' offering an elevated and finely tuned version of a Chinese restaurant staple, served 'furiously hot.'
Chicken Salad with Cucumber and Jellyfish
An intriguing choice for the adventurous eater; the jellyfish has a texture similar to squid and provides an earthy flavor profile that is lighter than traditional fried starters.

Good to know
Dim sum is heavily focused around lunchtime. The restaurant is notably more spacious and brightly lit than its Chinatown neighbors, and large tables make it very comfortable for groups.
