This review includes my experience of my two visits. A relatively new restaurant in town that specialize in Kai Ping cuisine. The place is small, simple, and cozy. The interior design if filled with creative and unique Chinese characters and food pictures.
Stir-Fried Cauliflower with Preserved Meat: The cauliflower is nicely cooked (soft but still crunchy). It is nicely seasoned, not salty at all. A great veggie selection. This dish was ordered on both of my visits.
Beef Brisket Steamed Vermicelli: The noodle comes with a fair amount of beef briskets. The noodle is lightly seasoned with the sauce on top, there are also white pepper and siracha on the side. A different option to eat noodles.
Pan-Fried Tofu with Minced Fish & Pan-Fried Pepper with Minced Fish: A must try dish! Very traditional dish. The minced fish is nicely seasoned, and a well combo with green pepper and tofu. It is not overly fried, and not very oily.
Chicken Clay Pot: Love this chicken clay pot. Compared to other similar chicken pot in canto/hong Kong restaurants, this is one of my favorite. The chicken is nicely seasoned and tender. It is not salty! Definitely recommend this if you enjoy eating chickens. The onions along with it are also tasty.
Steam Chicken with Mushroom: I had high hopes in this dish, but it was REALLY salty. We had trouble finishing this dish. The waitress misunderstood this dish with the steamed rice with chicken and mushrooms, so make sure to state it clearly when ordering. However, I don't recommend this dish because it was too salty. And there's no aroma from the (bamboo) leaves. The chicken is tender, just hope they can improve the flavor of this dish.
Steam Rice with Chicken and Mushroom + Soup: I love this steamed rice! The chicken and mushrooms are nicely cooked and flavored, and come with a great amount. Definitely recommend on trying this. Another great chicken dish.
Steam Rice with Beef & Pickled Mustard + Soup: I didn't quit enjoy this one. The beef is not tender, quit hard and chewy. The pickled mustard that they used is spicy and sour. I don't recommend on trying this one.
Beef Offal Noodle Soup: The noodle comes with a nice amount of beef offal. The noodle is cooked to the perfect texture, and nicely flavored.
Overall, my two experiences at KP Town were great. It's a family run restaurant, so the wait time may be longer during busy times. During our second visit, one of our order was made wrong (Steamed Chicken with mushrooms), the owner apologized and served the correct order. Due to the long wait, they gave us a free lemon tea. The service is very friendly and welcoming. I hope they can expand their menu with more options. FYI, the portion of their food can be quit small for large parties. read more
