Fried red beancurd flavoured pork knuckles

I have always wanted to try this place and Tung Po for the fried pork knuckles.
Happened to pass by this restaurant first, so went in.
It looked like it was temporary in business because all the tables were round and foldable, and the chairs were plastic stools.
On the table they had rolls of tissue for your use and they had those blue bowls as well used to drink beer, the same as Tung Po.

Anyway ordered the fried pork knuckles in red beancurd sauce, soy sauce noodles, and this egg and tofu with seaweed.

Pork knuckles:
There was supposed to be some prawn crackers, but in the end found them at the bottom of the basket not fried.
However the table opposite had prawn crackers, which can be seen in the middle of the basket.

The pork knuckles were not as good as expected because they were dry, chewy and overly salty.
The red beancurd sauce that came with it was slightly oily.

Egg white and tofu with seaweed:
The appearance of this was made very high end, the tofu was layered with seaweed in between and covered in fluffy clear egg white sauce.
On top of it was deep fried shredded cabbage the same as the seaweed served in UK’s Chinese takeaways imitating seaweed, which is actually made from finely shredded cabbage and deep-fried.
So it was fun eating the deep-fried cabbage on top.
But overall I did not like that type of tofu because I prefer the firm version.

Soy sauce noodles:
As for the noodles, they were slightly too salty but other than that they tasted quite nice.

If there is a next visit I will pick the congee because it is served in a huge wooden tub
