Sibling restaurant of Hung's
Good rice and noodle dishes but Dim Sum too 'brought-in'

Today is the fifteenth day of the Chinese New Year (CNY) and effectively its last day. During the past fourteen nights I’ve yet to eat a proper Chinese meal to celebrate the event. So off to Chinatown I went. Wonky (I used to come here to get maltreated but the waiters have recently mellowed much to my annoyance) was closed for a refurb and Hungs (another useful Hollowlegs recommendation) was packed, so I decided on the latter’s sister restaurant on Gerrard Street instead.

Crispy Duck is thus added to my list of Plan B restaurants in Soho.

Ah, that's a shame - Hung's kin prawn dumpling noodles are excellent. I usually get them half and half, with crispy belly pork...
Lizzie has been sorting me out with recommendations too! I've yet to try Hung's.
Hope you had a good CNY! I can identify with your sentiments as a lapsed catholic. Some traditions, I still really like.

Lizzie- my word, crispy pork and dumplings; sod my arteries, Ill order the combo when I'm at Hungs next.
Niamh- Thanks, the truth is I don't really celebrate CNY nor Christmas for that matter. As long as I have a plate of something decent to eat everyday, I'm a happy brother.
Shame. I loved the shui jiao when I ate here (only once!) and have raved about them ever since. Maybe they've gone downhill since. I think I might try and make some one day! Thanks for the review...
Helen- I think I was just being too fussy with the dumplings, or maybe it was just that Monday thing with the kitchen.
