Wai Tou Niu Rou (Meiling Road)

Famous for its beef dishes, this shop was named after the owner, whose moniker means "wryneck". His signature braised beef rib exudes curry flavour and a hint of Chinese herbs. The fork-tender meat goes well with the buttery seasoned rice. Another highlight is the double-boiled oxtail – the meat is slow cooked until gelatinous; infused with Indian mulberry root, the broth tastes mildly sweet. Certain items tend to sell out fast, so come early.
