“Cantonese food is the main focus and the menu offers many options. […] To start, you must try it’s namesake, the congee, a rice porridge that is especially well made here. The porridge base is the same, but you can choose the ingredients to mix in. Beef, chicken with mushrooms, sliced fish, lobster, abalone and frog, pork and preserved egg, these sound exotic but are delicious. […] Another specialty is the rice in bamboo pot.
