三寶飯

叉燒 + 雞腎

comments
would recommend going early - we were disappointed that the famous 雞肝 and 燒肉 had sold out. 雞腎 was ordinary but the 叉燒 was certainly very good, though b & poon agreed that yixin's

叉燒 was better. 油雞 and 燒鴨 good, but not spectacular.

the BEST lemon chicken IN THE WORLD

comments
recommended by irene. ok, so it may be a bit pricey for lemon chicken, but since we believe that it is the best in the world, it is definitely worth ordering (again and again). the chicken is very tender and lemon sauce is unbelievably delicious! the 蛋白炒鮮奶 (with甜醋) is also super yummy. all other dishes although not exceptional are all above average. fantastic choice for a garp soong 食飯 dinner. yumcha is also very good.

excellent overall, but because they've been given 3 michelin stars, we've been tougher in assessing their food so "average" items above may actually be "good" elsewhere, and "excellent" really means excellent or absolutely delicious with lots of yumyumyum. very disappointed in the 荷葉飯 which was not even close to 北苑 (in sydney) standard. 炸子雞 wasn't bad, the skin was really crispy but the chicken was way too salty. there's no need to have 小龍包 and 蝦餃 at lung king heen - they aren't any better here than elsewhere. 龍皇帶子餃 was really really good - lots of lobster & scallop wrapped in a 菠菜皮. the desserts we've given excellent ratings to are definitely all must-trys! the deep-fried glutinous rice sesame dumplings flavoured with green tea is a crispy green tea shell on the outside filled with lots of black sesame. the green tea flavour gets a bit lost (which is perfectly fine with b). the 桂花糕 was very cool and refreshing. perfect summer dessert. 流沙紫米圓 was also a pleasant surprise. very very very very very good place to go for yumcha, but pricey!
