Arriving at the Right Time

Beyond congee, explore the menu for other Cantonese delights. The Wok Hei infused dishes like Cantonese Chow Mein and the Hand-pulled Cheung Fun are always a hit. And don't miss out on the crispy, golden goodness of the fried dough sticks (youtiao) – perfect for dipping in your congee!
