'Fried Fish in Sweet & Sour Sauce' is a famous dish in Eastern part of China. Food presentation and taste is very good. This fish is small comparatively.
'Braised Black Mushroom & Sea Cucumber' should better be cooked with less oil. There is a well-balance of taste.
'Fried Snap Bean with Minced Pork in spicy sauce' is normally tasty and there is no exception this time.
Steamed Pork and Rice Sheet. After adding garlic sauce and soya souce, overall taste is enhanced.
Smoked Fish has an attractive and mouth-watering color.

Remarks: -
I do not remember when and whether I have dined in Hong Kong Old Restaurant (HKO) before. It is in fact not a restaurant of old decoration, but a modern one. It is quite a big Chinese restaurant and can accommodate about 150 diners at the same time. Servers are quite polite and attentive. HKO is a Chinese restaurant recommended by the Hong Kong Tourist Association. Tourists of different nationalities are diners on the day we visit.
We order 7 items. Server has not pushed us to order expensive dishes, but would give recommendation to us upon our request. Dish size is reasonable and not small. Food taste is good and not too much msg has been added. We are quite satisfied with all dishes and do not have any complaint, but they have not reached a very outstanding level. This may be the reason why the Hong Kong Tourist Association recommends it. We also recommend HKO for your next visit.
