An old Cantonese restaurant that has been open for 18 years. The seafood is on sale and is delicious and cost-effective. The desserts after the meal are also delicious. The dry fried beef noodles are good. I recommend everyone to come and eat.

Pretty good! So many parties waiting for a table but it moves very quickly. We had 12 parties ahead of us and we probably waited 20 minutes. Dim sum is dim sum. The tripe here is really good though. That stood out.

This restaurant has a great atmosphere, perfect for gathering with friends. We went for the first time yesterday, and the food was authentic Cantonese. I really liked their chicken dish—it was a pleasant surprise to find shrimp stuffed inside!
