Ordering a grilled-meat set will get you a large grilled chop, spaghetti, fried egg, bowl of soup, salad, toast, tea, a desert plus the smallest shot of apéritif imaginable. Kids will love it, there's a handy photo menu and waitresses wheel dim sum and sweet snacks past on carts.

Sit back with a Bianjing Old Beer (Y12) and listen to evening singers crooning soppy songs.
