Don't worry--despite the name your palate will not be numbed senseless. Famous Beijing, Shanghai and Szechwan cuisine prepared by an authentic Hong Kong chef have made this place a winner of numerous food festival awards. The restaurant is well lit and guests are welcomed with a display of tea. It seats around 170 and also has a private room accommodating 24. Popular dishes include the braised eel and the unusual "Vegetarian goose" made with exotic mushrooms, wood ear fungus and lily buds wrapped in bean curd skin. Try the house speciality Sichuan style duck, and the delicious red bean pancakes for dessert.
