Uncle Lu

I have always enjoyed their pork hock but the one I had few days ago was not fresh nor tender; however, the dipping sauce remained as tangy as before which I liked. The deep fried chicken nuggets were excellent, juicy and delicious and very crispy. The lu wei (marinated apps) was not as good as I have hoped for, the intestine wasn’t cleaned properly and tofu was too tough. The omelet was simple yet sophisticated, the combination of egg and corn starch water surprisingly goes well together. The malt milk tea was as good as before too! All in all, I’ll come back to try other dishes.

Nice presentation on a tray. The garlic soy sauce that is served with the pig's feet was delicious. However, my pigs feet came lukewarm, not tender at all, dry, and did not taste fresh. My side dishes also tasted not very fresh. They tasted as if they were sitting out for a while. Definitely did not taste like it was made fresh to order. The only thing that tasted truly fresh was the steamed rice which was indeed hot and fresh. Overall, wasnt bad, but comparable in taste and quality to T & T supermarket ready made foods.

So there was a photo of those steamed soup pork dumplings on the menu, so I pointed to it and asked to order one of those. LOL the waitress said it was not on the menu and it was just a photo… Why would they put a photo of a food item when it’s not even on the menu???? Anyways besides that, the Curry beef and rice was good except that there was so little rice I had to order another bowl of plain rice. Lots of sauce though! We also got the deep-fried chicken nuggets and noodle soup. The chicken was very good, but the soup was almost tasteless. Overall it was a satisfactory experience. I would still come back just to try different items though!

This restaurant is popular for its pig's feet which came with great presentation on th plate. I also like their spicy dry cooked chicken, it's quite authentic. My only qualm with this restaursnt is that the combo side dishes feel a bit lacking. The pricing is on par with other cafes of this caliber. You can get a full meal for around 15-20$.
