Dian Xiao Er (#02-203-4)

The place: Named after the comforting traveler inns of old China, Dian Xiao Er looks the part, with its wooden shed-like structures. It is famous for its open kitchen and enticing display of roasted herbal duck, though they also do a range of comforting dishes like Dong Po Pork and Hotplate Beancurd with Minced Meat & Pickled Vegetables.
