Re: The Laurate - for Chef in HK.

Hi William,

few dimsum places that does a trolley service - which reminds me of having
dimsum at City Hall in Hong Kong.  They cook it there and then on a
hotplate trolley, usually 3 pieces, but occasionally I have been served
with 4!

I 've tried City Hall for dinner and it was good for Maxim's; I've
tried to get in a couple of times for lunch, but the queues are
horrendously long and they don't take bookings so we went to Lei
Gardens at the IFC, Central instead.  It's been many years (when I was
a young lad) since I ate at CCK in London but I have found their
namesake (and I believe original chain) in HK and hope to try it soon
as their frontage and menu looks fairly decent.

> Also Emperor Junior on Kings Road also does it - its very simple but
quite nice there, they serve dimsum all day - and cooked to order ( sadly
the landlords are redeveloping so its not likely to be there for much more
than 6 months or so)  - you select from the menu and it also does other
dishes chow mein and even aubergine , their crispy ****k is very good -
chau siu a little disappointing in comparsion!

Not come across this one, North Point or Tin Hau area?

Chef!
