I tried the egg rolls five years ago and I was really impressed. I went to queue for the egg rolls three weeks ago and I thought it’s a bit over rated now. (It’s still good but does it worth queueing for 90mins? I don’t think so, can live with those average egg rolls )
They used to receive Pre-order but no longer has that in practice. I was told that limited daily stock will be opened to public from 9am but it’s recommended to call them a day earlier.
When I reach the place at 8.30 ( they open at 9). The queue was already ten shop lots away! While I was contemplating if I should walk away, I see that the line behind me started to build up again. It’s really popular that’s all I can say.

When I expressed my displeasure, he called me “insane” and “mentally unstable” in Cantonese....
Read moreThe line for buying the egg roll always long. You need to gi there 9:30am to 10:00am and line up, each person restrict to buying 2×2lb $400 or 4×1lb $400 total. There are 3 flavors to choose from . Original flavor is the best, for me that is. Coconut and pure egg also OK.
By 10:30 am all egg rolls are sold.
If the line have 10 to 15 people in front of you, the waiting time usually 15 minutes.
Don't even think you go there during or after it rain in the morning to avoid lining up. Many people also think this way and the line get even longer. You also need to wait under your...
