Went to A La for dinner tonight at around 8:30PM. There weren't too much people (guess it's cuz it's Tuesday & its late)

Yellow fish soup with Shanghai vegetable 薺菜黃魚羹 $9.99 (regular size - serve around 7-8 people)
- It's was not bad..

Green Onion cake 蔥油餅 $2.99
- it's not bad.

Steamed pork dumplings 南翔小籠包 (4 for $3.80)
we had 2 orders (8 dumplings).
- it was alright
- the meat inside was so-so

Pan-fried pork dumplings 鮮肉鍋貼 (4 for $3.80)
we had 2 orders (8 dumplings).
- it's pretty good

Fried egg white & broccoli 賽螃蟹 $12.99
- this is so good, I LOVE IT =D
- the dish was finished in a few minutes! Wish the portion was bigger!!
(I love to add some vinegar to it, it taste even better!!)

Braised minced pork balls with vegetable 菜芯獅子頭 $10.99
- the sauce is pretty good!
- the pork ball is yummy!

Fish fillet with sweet sour sauce 糖醋魚片 $10.99
- pretty good, but wish it's a little bit more sweet & sour
- portion is pretty small =/

Braised chicken with green onion (comes with 6 pieces of "pancakes") 木須雞 (配6片"薄餅") $10.99
- the "pancakes".... are just the one served with peking duck.. so thin and small =.="""
- the chicken was okay

Fried shanghai noodle 上海粗炒 $7.99
- it's a bit too oily.. other than that it's okay

Deep fried red bean pancakes 豆沙窩餅 $4.50
- it's not that good..
- too little red bean inside..

Deep fried egg white ball with mashed sesame 高力芝麻 (4 for $5.99)
I have tried deep fried egg white ball with mashed red bean 高力豆沙 before, but this is my first time eating deep fried egg white ball with mashed sesame 高力芝麻! They look the same, just different in the inside.
- I actually like deep fried egg white ball with mashed sesame better than mashed red bean!
- the deep fried egg white ball taste really good, strong flavour of egg and the texture is so soft & spongy 好有蛋味! 好鬆軟!
- MUST TRY! =) ** remember its with mashed sesame, not the one with mashed red bean oh**
