This is the so-called “Soy Sauce Western dishes’ found only in this ex- British colony. Traditionally, there are two “streams” of such. One is the Russian/Shanghainese style brought to us in 1949 by fleeing Shanghai restaurateurs. In its heydays, there were many of them. Unfortunately, Queen's Café is the last surviving member of this disappearing group.
Indeed, it was on the verge of folding up a few years ago when the owner father wanted to go into retirement. There was outcry from the city and from loyal customers. Then, the son and daughter-in-law decided to take over. They refurbished the whole inside, put in new decoration but retaining many of the old artifacts making it look new yet old. Surprisingly, it has since become popular once more and is branching out to other parts of the SAR. Some of the representing dishes here are: Potato Salad 薯仔沙律, Russian Borsch Soup 羅宋湯, Chicken a la King 雞皇飯, Beef Stroganoff 俄國牛柳絲 and Veal Stew in Red Wine 紅酒燴牛仔肉 etc.
Queen’s is also a popular bakery. Queen’s is a great place for people nostalgic in mind.
