Went here because of the Chinese name which phonetically sounds like something rude but not rude and means fried and marinated stuff.This joint specializes in 炸 fried food and marinated items 滷味 which is exactly what the name of this shop is called.
The interior is also decorated to look like old Hong Kong with Vinyls of Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui.
Having checked out the menu, they have the best of the both worlds with Chinese food and Fish and Chips!!
Obviously I went there for fish and chips and went with a friend so that she could eat the Chinese stuff.
For the Chinese stuff, she had the marinated skewers of intestines, gizzards and duck tongue.
I only tried the duck tongue which was surprisingly good and soft.
For mains, had the rice with dongpo pork.
It was served in this vintage Chinese bowl in paper form.
Now to the star of the show, the fish and chips!!
I was actually quite shocked they were that good and only $26 per portion so I had two.
Two boxes of decent fish and chips and they only cost $52 which is comparatively cheaper than decent chippies although the batter is different.
The best thing was that it was fried just right with a golden colour and not the Chinese style BROWN colour.
The fish was fantastic, they chose a good fish for it. It was the Turbot fish and the fish pieces were big, soft and flaky in a light crumb coating.
I found a really good sauce too, not intended for the fish and chips but it tasted like HP's brown sauce but not so trt in taste.
Finished with the lychee soda which was extremely refreshing and thirst quenching.
