Description

Tucked down a small alley behind the train station and without a proper sign, this eatery with over 70 years of history and just four tables is easy to miss. Even the interior feels more like a wood carving store than a restaurant. The menu is easy to navigate, with only 20-odd choices. Stir-fries are the must-try items – Yuan Wei fried rice, and pork jowl, characterised by remarkable wok-hei. Cash only and expect a long wait at peak hours.
