Lam Chu Kee is similar to the cuisine offered at Spicy Szechuan Restaurant which is family style Cantonese food. The decor isn’t the best but it’s not horrid either. I don’t have much memory of the first time I ate at this restaurant but I’m about to refresh my memory. We were running a little late so my brother and his wife took charge of ordering. We had sweet & sour pork, ginger & green onion chicken, fish & tofu claypot, mini plate of veggies(豆苗), mini plate of squid & veggie stir-fry, and dessert was on the house again. The sweet & sour pork tasted average to me. The chicken was tender but had a weird boiled aftertaste and they used too much starch for the sauce which coagulated quickly. I only ate two pieces of chicken due to the aftertaste. The fish & tofu claypot was good though. The fish was very smooth and tender. It had a good amount of fish, tofu, veggies, bbq pork. The squid was tender as well. I expected it to be rubbery. I think my favourite of the night was the mini plate of veggies. I didn’t really liked the dessert. It was some sort of chinese dessert soup which had tapioca and egg swirls in there. I love tapiocaand eggs but I didn’t enjoy the flavour of it too much. It was the yolk flavour to be exact. I may be wrong but most of the time when I have them, it’s just the egg white and not the yolk in there.

The bill came to approximately $70. The food was just okay, service was prompt and they even added more tea leaves to our teapot of weakened tea. Although we had 5 dishes, 2 of them were mini sized so I didn’t think $70 was a good value for the dinner. I would give this restaurant 5/10 stars.
