Ex-Peony Jade Staff Open Cantonese Eatery With PJ-Style Dishes Like Lobster Noodles
Their delish communal dishes are great for dining in with larger groups.
Before the Covid-19 pandemic, Pagoda Street in Chinatown used to be bustling with tourists and souvenir stalls. Two years of border closures have changed that — the area is now mostly deserted, with many stalls moving out due to the lack of human traffic.
But sitting resolutely in the middle of that street is Chinese restaurant Fortune Court, which recently shifted there in August this year. It’s opened by a group of former staff from Michelin Bib Gourmand-approved Cantonese restaurant Peony Jade, including ex-PJ executive chef Lee Hee Min, 48, sous chef Joe Liu, 42, and restaurant manager Connie Chee, 54.
