WHY GO
In a town where new restaurants pop up every day, there is something reassuring about a restaurant that has delivered the same comforting cuisine over two generations.
TATLER TIPS
Serving sizes are quite generous and it pays to sample many small dishes than stick to a few large platters of the tried and tested.
• A bowl of delicate spinach soup swirling with egg white and crab meat can be followed by a sizzling plate of flavourful spicy lamb with spring onions.
• A bowl of plain steamed rice is a perfect and simple foil to eggplant in a claypot with salted fish and minced pork. One can experiment with and find the perfect olfactory equivalent of yin and yang.
