Benyue Kitchen

Smart, mostly homestyle Cantonese dishes cooked with rare skill.Aberfeldie? For Chinese food? It’s certainly a first for me, but when you hear that several members of the old Lau’s Family Kitchen team have opened a restaurant of their own on Buckley Street, you’ve gotta get out and see it for yourself.And Benyue Kitchen doesn’t disappoint. Its service is pleasant and attentive, its menu a concise edit of smart, mostly homestyle Cantonese dishes cooked with rare skill.There’s lots here you’ll want to eat. And that goes double for any Lau’s fans hankering for their old favourites. I loved the fluffy crab omelette, the lamb spring rolls are every bit as good as you remember them, the green vegetables are en pointe, and this is the juicy, glossy spring chicken of your dreams. Get some.
