Not bad food . But if you never had proper chinesee food just take aways better ask your waiter to explain exactly what the dish contains.
I had nice pig ears for the starter . However portion has been too big as for starter and cold.
Big selection of lovelly dumplings and dim sums

This is our second visit this month. Clean and friendly environment. The food are all great, I especially like water melon pork soup and beer duck.

Very busy place for lunch and I think they are also very busy for deliveries. Great service and excellent host and we thoroughly enjoyed everything. I think this is very close to like home cooked Chinese food. Very good dumplings and amazing black bean chicken. Soup was very authentic Chinese flavour. Great place for Chinese.

Amazing sichuan food, much better than sichuan / hunan food in Hong Kong of the same price level. Service is good. There are non-spicy dishes for children or friends that couldn't take even a bit of spicy food. The quality of the non-spicy dishes are also quite well. Unlike many sichuan restaurant in Hong Kong and the mainland China which simply mixing chilli and meat / vegetable that are not fresh with a lot of MSG, their spicy dishes are fresh that you could tell the taste of the ingredients. The spiciness of a decent sichuan food should not be too strong and overwhelm the original flavours of meat / vegetable.

I recommend: cold dish: Fuqi feipian(Sliced Beef and Ox Tongue in Chilli Sauce). The sauce and the sliced bamboo are so great.

Hot dish: Spicy roasted fish in pickled pepper style.

Good food quality. The dumplings 🥟 are delicious. However, some of the dishes were too spicy 🥵 for me to eat. The sour white fish noodles 🍜 had lots of green chillies and all my mouth (and stomach afterwards) was in pain, even though I ended up eating only the fish. It would be nice if the menu had some indication of how spicy the dishes are. On the other hand, the menu is full of pictures, so it’s easy to figure out what each this is. The English can be very weird at times (check attached photo of “desort” 😅).
The service could be a bit better. We had to insist several times until we got some tap water.
If you like spicy food, you’ll probably love everything. Next time I think I’ll stick to dumplings 😅🥵🌶
