Frommer's Recommended

A longtime favorite for Chiu Chow food, this spacious restaurant overlooks gardens leading down to a major promenade in Tsim Sha Tsui East. Seating 500, it features a big tank with fish swimming about, soon to end up on the chopping block. Famous dishes here include Chiu Chow shark's-fin soup, much thicker and stronger tasting than the Cantonese version; double-boiled shark's-fin-and-chicken soup, not as strong but equally popular; sliced spicy goose; stir-fried pickled olive, minced pork, and French beans; Chiuchow superior hot pot; and seafood dishes, including lobster. I particularly recommend the cold sliced lobster in a special honey sauce -- it's not on the menu but it's available year-round. Dim sum is also served. And don't forget to try the Iron Buddha tea, a specialty of Chiuchow's, a tea that is so strong it will knock your socks off -- and may keep you awake all night.
