We visited Hey Kee HK Seafood at Guillemard Road for our Chinese New Year reunion dinner. This restaurant which opened in January this year mimics the Hong Kong style concept of Da Pai Dong (大牌档).
We got there early and took a few photos at the various photo spots outside.
Checking out the live fishes, lobsters and crabs. Some of the fishes are so unique that I've never even seen before.
We love the atmosphere here, the bright jade green tables and red chairs with the neon signage and posters of famous celebrities, this place really transported us to Hong Kong.
There's a little barber shop at the corner that was set up just for photo purposes although the appliances there are real.
The menu is in the form of a newsletter.
We ordered this big pitcher of Homemade Sugar Cane Chestnut Drink ($8.80), where you can still make out the mini sugar canes, water chestnuts, carrots and imperatae. This is a traditional Chinese drink that cools the body and reduce heatiness. The drink's natural sweetness makes it perfect.
We began the feasting with this Prosperity Abalone Yusheng ($68) which was my first Lo-Hei for 2024. In this Dragon year, let's all Huat together!
Sweet and Sour Pork with Pineapple ($22.80), good thing we ordered this dish in Large portion. It was yummy.
Fried Chicken Wings with Garlic ($12.80) was nice too but the garlic was a little bit spicy and my girl was very sensitive to spicy so she did not eat more. We had wanted to order their famous Temple Street Crispy Roast Chicken but was told that it was sold out for the day.
Pan Fried Beef Tenderloin Cubes with Potatoes ($36.80) was nice too, cooked with black pepper, the beef cube is tender well marinated. Even for a non-beef lover like me, I can accept it.
Sizzling Kangkong with Shrimp Sauce in Claypot ($15.80), this dish is quite average for me. Probably because I prefer Kangkong in Sambal chilli.
Finally the 1.2KG Red Grouper in soy sauce ($144). The most expansive dish of the whole meal must be the highlight right. Feeling like eating at a wedding banquet now. Fish is definitely fresh and good however, I felt that the meat is still slightly rough.

Overall, I enjoyed this wonderful dinner with my group of friends, we now form the Lucky 7 group and we had this dinner on the 7th Feb at 7.30pm, so it's triple 7 for us. Many thanks to Jessie for planning and organizing this gathering. The food was on the higher end and the total bill was $380+ including GST and excluding service charge.
