The idea here is to serve totally authentic Chinese cuisine with Hong Kong-style dim sum.
The menu is huge, with main seafood, chicken, duck, and vegetable dishes, to name just a few. There are incredibly unique dishes, such as lotus root with wolfberry and black fungus, and so many delicious and wild options for hot plate and hot pot, including sea cucumber with Chinese mushroom hot pot.
