We tried the L9 Lobster Dinner for Two ($79), which came with three different dim sum dishes. We…read morealso got four pieces of shrimp as a surprise complimentary dish, and chose to have the lobster steamed with garlic butter. The dim sum was just okay, but the highlight of the show was definitely the lobster! It was steamed just right--tender, juicy, and full of flavour. The vermicelli noodles underneath were delicious too. I actually thought they were just there for decoration at first, but no, they're definitely edible! The lobster was cleaned so nicely that I didn't even need to use the special pliers to crack the shell further. Service was friendly, and there's also a 5% discount for paying in cash, which is always a nice bonus. Overall, come for the lobster, don't forget to enjoy those delicious garlic-butter-soaked vermicelli noodles underneath!

So upon arriving at the destination, I couldn't help but notice the considerable sized rat bustling through the parking lot. It was at this moment I knew my meal was going to slap. Customer service was outstanding and Covid measures were well above par. I was impressed. Once I arrived home, I began unpacking the perfectly proportioned containers that were served at a quintessential temperature. Overall the food was great, nothing soggy and everything had a truly authentic taste to it... exactly what I was looking for. I will certainly dine here again and I highly recommend it. I would eat this as my last meal.

They recommended reservations for a…read morelarge group and since we were walk-in, I suggested we could split into two tables if available. They seemed hesitant but gave us an open table as long as we could finish eating by 12:30 (as someone else had reservations) which gave us an hour. Easy and done. Bathrooms are touchless with opening and locked door. Very convenient. Female bathrooms are on ground level while male bathrooms are downstairs. The atmosphere is posh and modern. Order food through a QR code at the table or you are free to ask for a menu. Food comes out SUPER quick. The rice noodle rolls were delicious, both shrimp and beef. The fried tofu was excellent. Congee is ok but I'm not a big congee person even though I'm at Congee Queen. Singapore rice noodles were good but not spicy enough for those who like heat. Decent meal and quick at that!

New Century will feed a large group. Their lobster, Dungeness crab, and sea bass combo for eight…read more($798) would satisfy ten or twelve. The individual New Century slow boiled soup is hardest to share but secure some empty bowls and you can divide the hefty portion. In the winter, there's a silkiness to the piping hot consommé that sooths a dry throat and has an umami essence infused with abalone, ginseng, and pork. There's plenty to choose from in the house signature combo platter including roasted duck, soy sauce chicken, BBQ pork, pork slices, and seaweed salad. Saving my stomach for the later dishes, I had a taste of the duck (a good start with crispy skin) and BBQ pork (satisfactory and well flavoured). With the generous portion of chicken in the combo platter, the slow cooked chicken with abalone broth seemed like overkill. I've never been a huge fan of this dish that's served cold since I prefer chicken hot. Still, I understand it's the jelly layer between the skin and meat that people enjoy. And to be fair, the chicken was tender, and New Century certainly didn't skimp on the ginger and scallion oil. For those who tend to fill-up before the "main dishes", the stars of the combo arrive mid-meal. The stir-fried Vancouver crabs with silver fish in HK style spicy sauce needs to be eaten at arrival as the crunchy coating is best straight from the fryer. And despite not looking spicy, the dish has a light heat that permeates in the background. Additionally, the crab was fresh and meaty, cooked well so it remained delicately flakey. The amount of sweet and sticky sauce used in the stir-fried lobsters with scallion in Maggie sauce was well balanced, lightly covering the crustaceans. Both lobsters were substantial; even after eating many pieces, we still had plenty of leftovers. This is a long review head to Gastro World for the rest.

Overall I liked the food here, generally the portions were bigger than I expected for every dish,…read moreand it justifies the higher than usual price per dish. Items that I got this visit: - har gow shrimp dumplings: overall pretty good, but the wrapper was a bit thicker than I expected. Would prefer a thinning dumpling wrapper - chicken feet: excellent, very tender and flavor was great - tofu skin wrap in abalone sauce: pretty good, the meat inside was lean and well balanced with the veggies - spare ribs in black bean sauce: this was a bit of a disappointment. The ribs were a bit tough and also underseasoned. It could have used some more salt and some extra cook time. Service was fine, nothing special. The restaurant overall was pretty nice and modern. I hope to come back sometime and try some other dishes.

It's a small pleasant dining room with traditional Chinese instrumental music playing in the background. I spotted the lineup of fried noodles in their classic red plastic basket up on the counter with duck sauce in plastic ramekins. Ahh memories The lunch menu has the biggest throw back ... prices from decades ago so you will be getting a bargain if you stop in for lunch or take your lunch to go. Service is pleasant but a bit slow (They were dealing with takeout orders I think.) but I was in no rush and the music was calming to the spirit. Their Hot and Sour soup was thick with ingredients, flavorfully pleasant, and served at the right temperature. My Szechuan Chicken has eye appeal and it was served with a hill of rice. It's always good when the vegetables crunch and these did. Their sauce was tasty and my lunch was really good. My fortune cookie reminded me to take moments to find joy and as the music plays I am glad I stopped in because the world seems far away, the food was good, and I am at peace even though I would have loved to get on my feet to wok and roll!! Definitely worth a visit!!
