Beijing delicacy

Recently, a chinese restaurant opened opposite my house, the same stretch as the famous chicken rice, a very daring move considering the legacy of the chicken rice and it being blocked by the over-head bridge. In order to attract customers to try, they're now offering 50% off everything on their menu except drinks and a separate menu which has like meat/fishes etc dishes. However, the menu that is 50% off is good enough to satisfy any hungry singaporean. They have a nice variety of dumplings and usual chinese dishes like la mians and fried rice. I went to try out the place with Marc and Daniel, and we ended up ordering food that is enough to feed 5 people; and all in all we only paid like 30 plus. The next day, i brought my 2nd brother and my grandma to have lunch there. The following are the food that we ordered.

Fried rice with brinjal and chicken...very very yummy...

2 Plates of dumplings, 1 with mixed fillings, and the other with vegetable. We also ordered the appetizer, pork in chili and garlic.

The food is good, cheap (even without the discount, a plate of fried rice is $6.80.. the dumplings range from $4 to $7.80 for the fish filing) and the service is very good. Alas, the business there isn't very good. Probably people working in the area didn't know that this place is opened and have 50%? This we do not know but i really hope that they will work it out because i really like the place and the food.

The 2 stone fountains, most probably for feng shui...

Beijing Yuan.. the name of the restaurant.
