Original Taste

Chinese$$

Diners at the next table may recommend their favourite dishes from the long menu; it's a friendly kind of place in which you make your own fun- don't go looking for it in the basic decor and reserved service. Northern Chinese cuisine doesn't shy away from offal, the deep-fryer or hot spices. You might try braised pig's ear in chilli oil, or sweet leek and scrambled egg pastries. There's deep-fried battered basa (fish) with fivespice salt, and earthy stewed chicken chops with Chinese mushrooms and sweet potato noodles. Dessert options include sweet potato with sugar syrup, and plum tea is a pleasant drop.
