Shing Kee Noodles

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ndf64GFjcI?wmode=transparent] (part 2) I encourage anyone who understands Cantonese to spend the time to
watch it. In short, and despite its slight tendency to proselytize, it
is basically an honest love letter to a family-owned eatery in Hong
Kong. Shing Kee has deep roots in the community, but despite its loyal
following, it is struggling to survive because of soaring costs and
threats of rezoning. The struggle seems to ease out a little (between
the time of the video's filming and my visit), thanks not only in no
small part to recent press coverage but also to the love and care
given to it by its owners and its rabidly loyal customers. Food was great, but you have to be there to experience it. I implore you to go.






Rating: 1 star to the restaurant for its character and style.

King's Garden Restaurant
King's Garden Restaurant (東來居火鍋料理)
Wanchai, Hong Kong.
A superlative evening of hot pot with top-grade beef (特上牛皇), shrimp
balls (蝦丸), wonton (雲吞), fish-skin dumplings (魚皮餃). The clear soup
base, with plenty of mushrooms and herbs, was first rate.
