This HK success story begins from the hard work of Mr. Leung Wing Nin, who started with nothing but pushing a cart to sell congee and food in the 60s in the Ping Shan community, who later opened his own store to sell household items in Yuen Long. The family also continues to sell cart noodles, and now in the third generation.
With 14 outlets all over Hong Kong with their own membership program plus online business, we came to Tuen Mun to try it out. It is a small shop and even though very packed, the place is neat and tidy. Fortunately, it was already past lunch hours, so we did not have to wait before getting a table.
My wife had thin noodles幼麵 ($94), with also quite a few ingredients, including pig’s intestines 瘦豬腸, pig’s blood 豬紅, pig’s skin 豬皮, fish ball 陳皮魚蛋, turnip 蘿蔔, chicken wing tips 雞翼尖, and red sausage 紅腸. The spiciness of the soup could be adjusted too, and she got tiny spicy 微咖喱辣, together with hot milk tea 熱奶茶.
For me I have also thin noodles 幼麵 ($67) but choosing medium spiciness 中咖喱辣. I had less ingredients which included pig’s blood, fish ball, turnip, and chicken wings雞翼, together with cold milk tea 凍奶茶. The taste was good, and we did not feel thirsty from MSG, and each of the ingredients were flavourful and good in quality.
At the same
time, we had some snacks, including Shrimp Paste Siu Mai 熟蝦醬脆燒賣
($16) and Sweet and Sour Gluten 淨酸齋
($18). The siu mai was a bit too hard from deep-frying but the condiment was
very good. The gluten was quite nice, with the right balance of sweet and
sourness.
The pickup of the food was self-served, and navigating among
the narrow spaces between tables could be tricky. The staff though was helpful
and tried to take from us the dirty trays when we returned. The bill on the day
was $195. Considering the food quality and experience I would rate them a Good 65
points, worth trying.
