A fast-moving dim sum counter that’s most reliable when you order like a Cantonese lunch tray: one roast-meat rice plate, one dumpling lane, and a quick veg side to reset the palate. It’s built for efficiency, but the best bites still read as properly made—especially when you keep the order focused and don’t over-spread across the menu.
Must-Try Dishes:
BBQ pork buns, Shrimp dumplings (har gow), Roast duck over rice
What makes it special: Dim sum and roast meats in a speed-first, counter-service format.
8.1
A halal-leaning hand-pulled noodle stop where the move is to keep it broth-and-noodle forward, then add one cold or sesame-forward side for contrast. The room isn’t trying to be a destination, but the bowls hit when you treat it like a repeatable, high-satisfaction noodle fix in the neighborhood.
Must-Try Dishes:
Hand-pulled beef noodle soup, Spicy dry-mix noodles, Sesame-style cold noodles
What makes it special: Hand-pulled noodles with a halal-friendly, no-fuss setup.
