Well some of the best dishes I've had there so far are:
- scallop and roe on top of tofu
- fatty pork slices marinated in siu choy
- a vegetable/mushroom soup (some kind of fungus anyway... but the soup is a bit creamy and just awesome!)
- crab deep fried in a garlic black bean sauce

To name a few . You can decide how "real" is it heh. I've been there for dinner 3 times so far and haven't been disappointed yet. Even if you order something seemingly "typical" off the menu, they throw a small twist to the dish to make it different. From items like spicy tripe or bbq pork chops with mayo to veggies with some fungus for garnish. Everything is just a little bit neat. I think this makes it pretty hard for any dish they make to really be a loser, because even if the dish isn't your favourite, you can appreciate the creativity and the effort.

Their dim sum on the other hand...meh... just like every other dim sum in town, but expensive.
