The makeover has resulted in a serious boost in decor, contemporary takes on Sichuan classics, and an overall high caliber operation. This is one of the neighborhood's tastier Sichuanese options, making it a great option for spice lovers. The menu is composed of really great options across the board, all which I've sampled has been excellent. For starters, their pepper bone fish soup (鮮椒無骨魚) has a beautifully clear broth and tasty chunks of fish. Another quality execution on an old classic, sauteed string beans (孜然四季豆) is crispy and full of flavor while the mapo tofu (麻婆豆腐) is nothing short of fantastic. While the noodle dishes like dan dan noodles (擔擔麵) or scallion oil noodles (蔥油麵) haven't been as impressive, they are still better than most other places in the area. I've remained a fan of their tofu fried rice (豆腐炒飯), though their take on foie gras fried rice (鵝肝炒飯) actually blew me away. There were hints of smokiness and the foie gras essence was noticeable with every bite. Their marinated shredded lamb (京蔥拌羊肉) is also a surprise, no major bouts of gamey flavor but definitely A-game execution. A few other favorites include their spicy eggplant with minced pork (魚香茄子), poached eel in hot oil (沸騰土鱔魚), mala fish in oil (麻辣冷鍋魚), and poached beef brisket (水煮牛坑腩). My mouth is already watering. Their hot pot has been legendary, but I still haven't had it. The weather as of late feels a bit too warm for this, but that doesn't seem to stop people from ordering it. I suppose it's just that good. Service is most definitely next level, it's expected in places like this. What should also be no surprise are the prices, it's not backbreaking but would never be deemed affordable. Most dishes are a minimum $120HKD and any of the hot meat dishes noted above are in the $200 range. With 4-5 dishes, expect to pay around $1,200+. Quality Chinese is not cheap out here, but that's the way the climate is in Hong Kong's food (and rent) crazy world.

四川风味小吃 is a quaint little shop on the top floor of Kwai Fong Plaza. While I am quite put off by how…read morecrowded this mall is, this place offers an amazing deal with incredibly friendly service- the latter of which I found especially surprising. So far, I've only tried their 手工凉皮 which is basically cold flat noodles served with cucumbers, peanuts, and a wide range of Sichuan spices. I've had it twice so far and it's delicious! It may be a spicy dish, but the fact that the noodles are chilled makes much more manageable. You can also ask them to go easy on the spiciness if you want to, so it's nice that they actually offer that as an option as well. The noodles were already pre-packed with the cucumber, but they do add everything else right in front of you after you order, so you do get quite a show. If Chinese is not your forte, you could also try to point at the pictures in the menu. I'd expect that they'll be nice enough to help you out and charge you the same price. If you like cheap, tasty, fragrant and spicy Chinese (Sichuan) food, this could be an option that for you to check out. I'd also give them bonus points for offering lots of recyclable packaging.

For being at a central HK location, a buffet that includes beer & at $22US a pop, this place is…read moredamn good for its taste and value. Oh, might I add FREE WiFi. Avoids the damn lines, get there at 6:30pm as we only had to wait 5 minutes for the elevator queue & zero wait to be seated at a booth on a Friday night. Keep in mind: everything is in Chinese. Even the Scranton Menu is 100% Chinese. So you gotta bring a friend who can speak/read Chinese or utilize google translate. When you get to the host stand, you let them know your spice level & you are offered a whole chicken or a half chicken. Don't matter you change your mind in terms of wanting more chicken as this too is unlimited so get more if your heart so desires. Once seated, you get your sauce (garlic, chili oil, dried chili's), drinks (soda, Coconut water, beer, juices..) random foods out for grabs like dumplings, & tofu skin rolls etc. Then once the chicken pot hits the table, wait for it to cook a little more then you are free to grub. Please have in mind the chicken is a whole damn chicken meaning feets, skin, bones ALL that is in the pots. The chicken is really tasty with Schezwan flavors: Spicy & Numbing. Once you've had enough of the chicken, ask the server to pour in the broth to get the hot pot started. Then order your hot pot goodies! Must orders: fish skin (I know sounds gross! I too was weirded out when my friend ordered it, but you gotta get it. Dunk into boiling broth for 10 seconds & consume), beef balls, corn, instant ramen, collagen, sliced meats (lamb, pork belly, beef), Chinese veggie and any other thing that tickles your fancy. I loved it as I have never in my life eating anything like this before in terms of the flavors & style! Hope y'all enjoy it as much as I did!
