Overrated

We started with some crispy honeyed ham (蜜汁火腿), kinda like crispy bacon. This was OK. We followed with a whole series of dishes, which included:

Almond pig's lung soup (杏仁豬肺湯) - this was very, very good as the almond soup was thick and rich.

Braised fish maw and goose web (花膠炆鵝掌) - this was OK but the goose web was a bit sub-par.

Tiger prawns sautéed with superior soy sauce (頭抽煎老虎蝦) - very, very yummy...I was sucking on the head to get all the flavors out. But why did they have to cut the prawns in two?!

Braised abalone and mustard green (鮑魚芥膽) - the abalone was pretty good, with the centers deliciously soft and succulent.

Roast goose (燒鵝) was not bad. Sweet and sour pork was pretty decent. The kale in suprior stock (上湯芥蘭) was actually very sweet and delicious. The stir-fried glutinous rice (生炒糯米飯) was honestly a disgrace... The rice was soggy and all stuck together. I haven't had it so bad in a long, long time, and sums up the experience of dining here. Luk Yu is indeed living off its reputation and no longer deserves our attention. The kitchen staff knocked off at 9:45pm on a Friday night, and the only reason we got some decent service was because our host knew the place well. I'm pretty sure that my third visit will be my last...

Glutinous rice chicken is amazing

Generally people think the waiters here are unfriendly and snobbish. I, being unknown to all the waiters, went there many times, find this to be totally untrue.
Its food is delicately prepared, and a few of its must tast food include the glutinous rice chicken and the white lung soup. You will not regret coming to this restaurant, though need to expect a slightly above average price. No corkage being charged making it a great place to share your favourite wines here.

fantastic!

I adore the dim sum here. And the pork lung soup is so damn good! Was there last week and was very impressed by the soya chicken and the fried noodles too.
