“ This is one of my favorite Cantonese dim-sum restaurants in Hong Kong. The place is clean and comfortable. Quality of the food is very good and everything is scrumptious. Apart from the dim-sum, their fried rice and noodles are also very tasty. I recommend the yin-yang rice particularly. ”
“ Had dinner at West Villa. Ordered their soup of the day, roast pigeon, pork ribs and claypot crab meat with brinjal. Food was delicious. I don’t feel thirsty the following day. An authentic place that serves traditional cuisine. The roast pigeon was the best I have tried so far. As the pigeon is small, it’s not easy to roast it well enough to not have any sides burnt. The pork was tasty and each pieces has some soft bone to It. It was well seasoned so don’t need a lot of sauce to go with it. We thought it was too big a portion for 2 of us but finished the whole plate nevertheless. Something was amiss for the claypot brinjal with crab meat. Maybe it was the last dish that was served so it pale in comparison to the earlier dishes. Overall a pleasant experience. Will definitely come back for the roast pigeon soon. ”
“ 4/5 Old Chinese restaurant still popular now for a recent, their food is good. Fish paste stuff eggplant, I usually don’t like this type of fish, but this paste is good! Fish pot, crispy outside, tender juicy fish, flavour all cook into the Center, not greasy at all, even the ginger and scallion is good cos the wok fried . Pigeon little dry n not marinaded enough. Soup dumplings not bad. The pomelo skin is good as well. The soup is a must try here! ”
“ A typical upper scale Cantonese restaurant. Been at this Taikoo Shing City Plaza new phase since day one I believe. The fried noodles were very good with high quality ingredients and without being over cooked. ”
“ This is in City Plaza in Taikoo. Food is pretty good but pricey. Two seniors for lunch was HK$440 and we didn’t want to leave a tip because service was below par. ”
