Mother-in-Law's friend was in town so the four of us decided to visit this little Italian place (owned by Taiwanese guy). My MIL went there before with her other friends and thought the prices were reasonable and the food was quite satisfying. However, this was our first try of the restaurant. Overall experience was not bad. Though it's not on our favorites list, but we will come back again in the future.

First time visiting this restaurant. The location has changed ownership so many times over the years and never once we tried any of the restaurants. Since we were meeting up with couple aunties, we thought we would let them choose where to go. One of them is a frequent diner at HML, so we went.

Cold-Marinated Chicken Feet - a bit too sour. Interesting how they combo it with sweet-pickeled veggie.

XO Fried Rice

Deep-Fried Chicken Knuckles

Deep-Fried Wen-Chang-Yu (or Bah-Fan-Yu)

Deep-Fried Soft Tofu

Har-Gow

Ginger Pork Hock Stew - never liked it but the oldies kept on going after it...apparently, in Chinese culture, it's a must for women to eat right after their pregnancy
