While some guests may sip tea and play mahjong in the peaceful Chinese garden by a busy road, discerning food lovers flock here for the river fish dishes. Plump swamp eels from inland rivers are poached in a flavourful spiced broth and drizzled with sizzling hot oil at the table, making their flesh tender and juicy, but with a crispy chew. Stir-fried pork liver and kidney with bird’s eye chilli and pickled chilli is another firm favourite.
Michelin's Bib Gourmand marks good quality meals at moderate prices, focusing on value without star-level prestige.
