I remember ordering from this restaurant a while back, and it was a bit of a hit or miss. One thing that is always a delicious hit is the Curry Beef Brisket with Rice. No fillers of extra veggies or onions, etc. It's just tender chunks of beef, perfectly cooked potatoes and flavourful coconut curry sauce. Yum! It's something I crave every now and then because they make it so well.Their roti canai is pretty decent too.
This style of restaurant originated in Hong Kong. It's like a greasy spoon cafe or a Denny's... with a slight Chinese twist. They serve everything from curry to spaghetti to French toast... just remember the twist. But unlike most restaurants that have wide ranging menus, everything they serve is good or very good, and having eaten there for over twenty years I can truly say that I've tried everything on offer.
Best Hainan chicken in town. The tell is the elusive layer of gel under the skin, a sign that the chicken was prepared properly, poached gingerly. Makes a huge difference in the texture. Otherwise, you're just eating cantankerously boiled, dry, and flavourless chicken. Always order the dark meat and the oily rice. 10/10.Curry beef also epic, tender and 9/10. Salted fish fried rice okay. 7/10. Singapore vermicelli has nice heat. 8/10. Fasy efficient service 9/10. Air conditioning 10/10.
Hainan chicken and curry are their specialties and they never disappoint. The salted fish and chicken fried rice is one of the better ones around town; they did not skimp on the ingredients.
We come here often for the hainanese chicken for my grandma, sometimes with rice noodles or with oil rice.We like the curries on occasion - expect some big potato chunks.
One of the better HK style cafes. Sweet and sour pork is great, Singapore style fried vermicelli is one of the best in town, and the Hai Nam chicken is famous.
This place has been around for many years now. Although the food wasn’t as hot as I would like it, the customer service was very good. I watched a man walk in from the cold to place an order and they gave him a table to sit and wait at and provided him with hot tea to warm up from the cold. Very considerate employees. It was good to see that they were busy with take out. Our curry beef on rice was so tender and tasty. It was so nice to see kindness. I can’t wait to come back again.
Amazing food. New location opened up on Kingsway in Burnaby. Staff was very friendly.its very quick to bring food out. Good quality and fast lunch place.
Food was lukewarm which is pretty gross when eating pork belly as the fat needs to be hot, not lukewarm. The deep fried tofu in Lohan vegetable dish was old. It had a bit of rancid taste. Very disappointing. The beef brisket is flavourful, even though not hot. They don't check for vaccine passport.Also take out containers cost $0.25 which is fine but no where does it mention it and server never said anything when we asked for containers. As we were leaving, saw a small sign at the door about take out containers cost.Also menu doesn't have price for all items so it's kinda a guessing game of how much your bill total will be.Staff are pretty polite.
The curry here is the best! Other food is decent.
