We got assorted aburi sushi, mentai kimchi udon, oysters kakimayo, hoji-cha brulee, and neko demashi.

I think we just have a difference of preferences.

Here's our experience going on a Friday evening in July at 6:15pm. 1) Food: The menu is large with an option to order à la carte or get a three-course meal for 35 Canadian dollars. I ordered the udon carbonara. It was tasty, but a little too heavy on the bacon. (If you visit D.C., Perry's has an excellent one.) 2) Drinks: The menu has it all, but focuses on sake. They have sake sangria, which was refreshing, sake bombs, and flavored sake. They also have mocktails for the kids that come in a cat cup. 3) Service: Our server was amazing! He took photos of us using a Polaroid camera, sang to my dad when he brought out free dessert, and gave us his full attention and energy.

It's easy to miss the place coz the exterior is hard to judge. The food we ordered really stood out coz it was flavourful, fresh, and yes, everything on the menu is Halal.

They've got a DJ on Fridays and Saturdays, dinner service runs late until 11 on weekends, and the bar is open until later.

Lee is the one restaurant I look forward to every Summerlicious…read more One reason is that every year they create a completely new menu instead of reusing dishes from their regular menu. As an Asian fusion restaurant, I always come curious to see what new ideas the chef has come up with. The last two Summerlicious menus disappointed me a little--they felt a bit uninspired, with dishes like the vegetable curry and croquette. This year, however, the creativity is back, and I'd happily recommend Lee's Summerlicious menu again. Fried Wild Cod The crispy cod is served in an edible crispy rice basket, making it feel like sharing bread at the start of the meal. The fish is fried perfectly with a crisp exterior and moist, flaky interior. Paired with Thai sweet chili sauce, it's light, flavorful, and great for sharing. Gazpacho Picante A refreshing take on gazpacho. The avocado gives it a smoother texture, while the hint of spice adds another layer without overpowering the chilled tomato soup. Refreshing and a great appetizer. BBQ Jerk Pork Ribs Three generous ribs--almost a main course on their own. The meat is tender while still retaining a bit of bite, similar to the texture of slow-cooked jerk chicken. The jerk seasoning is excellent, coating every bite with rich, aromatic spices. Pan Roasted Salmon The salmon is beautifully cooked with a nicely caramelized exterior while remaining juicy inside. Each accompaniment brings something different: the olive tapenade is deeply savory, the parsnip purée is smooth and slightly sweet, the lima bean adds a creamy, nutty richness, and the lemon-tomato-pepper vinaigrette brightens everything with acidity and a gentle kick. Lima Bean Succotash Probably the prettiest dish on the menu--and also the most unusual. The lima beans and peas are cooked until tender without becoming mushy. The flavors are layered, but there's a subtle bitterness throughout. After asking the chef, we learned it's the natural flavor of lima beans and was intentionally preserved as part of the dish. Fried Organic Chicken The fried chicken is juicy and tender, reminding me of Japanese karaage. It comes with two fun sauces: one is rich and spicy with a hint of coconut, while the other is a sweet pineapple-lime mayo that pairs surprisingly well with the chicken. The pandan rice, however, was fairly ordinary. The desserts are still classic Lee--beautifully plated, but the flavors are more restrained. We tried the Rhubarb Almond Frangipane Tart, Lemon Mousse Panna Cotta (our favorite), and Strawberry Raspberry Monkey Bread. This year's Summerlicious reminded me why I fell in love with Lee in the first place.

After trying it I completely understood, this was the BEST salad of my life! All 26 ingredients worked together perfectly to make a delicious, tangy, crunchy salad unlike anything i've had before. I also highly recommend the wine paring they suggest having with the salad :) Everything else on the menu was done really well. The cheeseburger spring roll was quite unique, Indo think there could've been more texturally inside the actual spring roll, it was all mush in there. Very nice ambiance, service were very attentive, I had a great time and will be back to try more items :)

This place is more of a takeout kind of spot - but there are 1-2 small tables available for anyone waiting or wanting to dine in. The staff was very nice, talked to the owner and he explained the menu pretty well with recommendations. Food This spot does a lot of classic HK dishes - whether it's snacks or main that's perfect on the go. They recently have a collab with @siupaidon to bring more bold, nostalgic flavours. What I recommend: - Fish Fillet in Rose Sauce - Curry Fish Balls & Berkshire Pork Skin - Mala Spicy Chicken Rice They're all made on the spot and it really has a lot of strong and good flavour. Curry fish balls is my all time favourite, so I'm glad I have another new spot to get it whenever I'm craving it. This little hole-in-the-wall deserves more awareness, so hopefully they continue to bloom and grow!

Other recommendations are the green curry chicken or beef, lemongrass chicken or beef, and spicy shanghai noodle. Mmmmm. Guess what I am ordering now?
