Yuanji Tea Restaurant - Business Reviews

In the movie "In the Mood for Love", Maggie Cheung and Tony Leung chose to eat in a tea restaurant when they met, and Yue Wenle and Miriam Yeung reunited in a tea restaurant in "Zhiming and Chunjiao...... In Hong Kong movies, tea cafes can be seen everywhere, and Shenzhen, due to its unique geographical advantage of proximity to Hong Kong, also has an advantage in the number of tea restaurants. Yuanji is the top three most deserved.

It is said that the first Yuen Kee in Hong Kong was opened in 1885, and this calendar is no longer available, but the offal of Yuen Kee in Hong Kong has always been very delicious, so several branches have been opened in Shenzhen. As soon as you enter the door of Yuan Ji, the Hong Kong accent Cantonese comes and goes, and the Hong Kong natives who are chatting and laughing in the store can be recognized at a glance, which is the strongest Hong Kong flavor.

Yuen Kee Tea Restaurant started with beef offal, and beef offal and beef brisket are naturally the signature of the company. The source remembers, you have to try the beef brisket hot pot. A pot full of beef offal beef brisket, the aroma is overflowing, the meat is very fresh, stewed until the flavor is incorporated, the beef offal is elastic, and the beef brisket is soft but not rotten. Yuan Kee's housekeeping skill is the signature broken sand belly, which only sells 10 copies a day, on a first-come, first-served basis. Bangsha belly is the belly of the beef belly close to the leg, located near the diaphragm of the cow, fat and thin, sandwiched with thin and soft gum, after stewing, the gum tastes rich in gelatin, soft and glutinous and full of bite. The bottom of the pot is covered with lettuce, and the lettuce absorbs the soup, which is very delicious. Different from the soup made by mixing the powder with water used by the street stalls, the soup base of Yuen Kee is a beef bone soup that has been boiled for a day, and the soup is rich and delicious, and it is very delicious. Browned minced garlic and verdant green onions float and tumble in the gurgling soup, and there is not a trace of waste in the whole pot. It is worth mentioning that eating beef offal here can also be accompanied by side dishes at will, and hand-beaten meatballs are basically standard. The chef in the store gets up early in the morning to make meatballs, and the hand-beaten ones taste elastic, which is not the same as the slag-free taste made by the machine, and the latter is a few streets away. A variety of side dishes such as fish skin dumplings, cuttlefish balls, and wontons can be added to the hot pot, so you can choose without worrying about a single taste. Eating offal, sand tea sauce is the preferred choice, the texture of sand tea sauce here is biased towards satay sauce, the taste is very thick, the grain is very strong, the aroma is very full, and it is used to dip beef offal to eat a first-class stick.

Pineapple oil is also a must-have for Yuan Kee. Whether the pineapple bun is fluffy, whether the puff pastry on the surface is crispy and slag off, whether it is warm when served, whether the butter is fragrant and creamy, etc., are all criteria to consider whether a pineapple bun is qualified. The pineapple bun of Yuen Kee has a high score, the puff pastry is very fragrant, the butter is sandwiched in it, and it slowly melts with the heat of the bread, and it is fragrant and crispy when you bite into it, and the taste is fresh, which is unmatched by bread that has been roasted for a long time and cooled.

The decoration of Yuan Ji takes the simple and simple route, and the plaque at the door is written in white on a black background with the recommendation of the day, and the store is not big, but it is very popular. Round tables for 4-6 people are the mainstay, with dark tables and chairs, warm yellow lights, and a friendly and natural environment. The neighborhood is mainly a foil, and there are also diners who come here to taste the pot of beef brisket that people praise each other. The Shui Wai store is of the highest standard, but the taste of other branches is also controlled. Although the meal is lively, there is generally no need to wait for a table, but it is more difficult to sit together for more than 8 people, so it is recommended to sit at two separate tables for many people. If you really want to talk about the shortcomings of Genji, it is probably that the name of the tea restaurant is famous, which covers up the fame of its beef offal. For gourmets, Yuen Kee Tea Restaurant is a more secure choice than many grocery stores in Shenzhen.
