This is a regular place I would go for my dim sum and my fix of siew yoke when in Guangzhou. Very popular with the locals and you can see from the crowd… they are crowded almost every hour from the time they are open in the morning for yum cha, lunch, then afternoon yum cha again, dinner, then evening yum cha again. Reason is the variety is there, food is good and nice, price is reasonable. Try it when you are in Guangzhou the next time, just be prepared to wait like an hour.

See all the chairs outside for waiting customers... I was there for late lunch so not so bag cos China people eat super early. 🙂
Ambience... as hard as GZ is trying to snuff out smoking in aircon places, this place is still filled with smokes.
Ambience on another side, be ready to share tables
Menu...
Pork Porridge... nice and light.
Translucent fatty layers which burst in your mouth and the skin is crispy! Awesome!
Refreshing and nice you tiao with prawns and mango salad
Spinach with handmade fresh fish nuggets
Steam pork ribs
Siew Mai with shrimps inside
Looks like polo buns right? Not!
It's Char Siew baked buns with polo on top... served piping hot and very tasty!
Our bill... only RMB$150 for 2 pax

Rating: 4.5/5. If not for the smokes, it would be a 5.

Taste: Delicious and tasty.

Portion: Slightly above average.

Price: Total for RMB$152.50… with chinese tea, towels and etc.
