Little nugget’s school assessment officially begins next week, so this weekend he will be buried in his studies unlikely to see any daylight until he completes his preparation. His old man; however, has all the time in the world to spare and he decides to spend it wisely on some really tasty food.
Sister Wah Beef Brisket (華姐清湯腩) is a popular eatery in Tin Hau, famous for its delicious beef brisket simmered in a flavorful clear broth (清湯).
Thanks to the glowing reviews on Xiaohongshu and other social media platforms, Sister Wah has seen a surge in its clientele in recent years. Today, I was lucky enough to wait only 10 minutes for a table. Check that, one fourth of a table (as I'm sharing it with three other strangers).
Braised beef brisket in clear broth (清湯牛腩) ($75) – Very nice portion.
I have specifically asked for some fatty skirt steak (崩沙腩) and these are the cartilage and tendons between the brisket and short plate I think. In terms of texture, it doesn't get any better than this. Each bite offers a delightful combination of rich flavor and unique texture showcasing a wonderful blend of crunchiness, fattiness, and richness.
Hidden underneath the beef brisket were two big slices of turnip which had absorbed the delicious flavors of the clear broth.
For a restaurant primarily known for its beef brisket, the iced milk tea was more than just serviceable as it struck a perfect balance between the robust flavors of rich tea and the creamy texture of milk.
This place deserves an encore for sure!
