Clay pot rice, or “bo zai fan,” is cooked and served in a traditional earthenware pot. As the rice sizzles over direct heat, it forms a crispy golden crust at the bottom while soaking up the rich flavors of the toppings. You can choose from classic combinations like Chinese sausage and salted fish, tender chicken with mushrooms, or beef with a savory soy sauce blend. The pots arrive bubbling hot, releasing a mouthwatering aroma that tells you you’re in for something special.

The interior is small and unfussy, but what it lacks in décor, it makes up for in heart. Service is quick, the portions are generous, and the food feels like it came straight from a Hong Kong kitchen.
