Great dumplings and spring rolls. Also had stir fry rice with chicken, beef stir fry rice noodles, tofu on rice. All the food was great. We had takeaway and got a nice green tea while waiting.
I love Chinese food, but quit often I go to some restaurants that cook it too greasy.
That was possibly the only mistake from The Sands when I had lunch there.
My pasta was delicious and well served, but by the end it was so heavy because of the amount of oil. Despite that it was yummy, and the service is very kind.

We came here one night on a coupon deal for three courses of peking duck! The photos on the deal website made the restaurant look quite nice as well as the food, so we were pretty excited to come here!
We got kind of lost on the way to this restaurant and kept driving past its location on New North Road. When we managed to find parking along the busy road, we walked over to the restaurant and to be perfectly honest, the restaurant was a lot smaller and did not look as clean as the photos made it look! It was quite the typical Chinese restaurant, much like a lot of the ones on Dominion Road. We were greeted as we entered though and directed towards a table. We noticed that many of the other diners were also eating peking duck (perhaps they had all taken advantage of the coupon deal as well?).
As we weren't told what the three courses actually were, we were in for a surprise! The first course was soup, with greens and tofu. This was quite surprising, but it didn't taste as bad as we thought! I had about two small bowls of this soup. The second course was the actual peking duck wraps. This was quite different because it wasn't just skin like traditional peking duck wraps, but more like a roast duck dish. Each piece had quite a bit of meat on it! Not that we were complaining - both of us loved it! Though not as high quality as a few other restaurants I've tried, it was worth the price we paid.
The third course was a sweet sago soup, with fruit on the side. I liked this. My friend wasn't too keen on the soup, because that was a little weird for him, but he ate most of the fruit! Definitely were surprised by the three courses as we were expecting something else, but we do think this dining experience was worth the price we paid!
Customer service wasn't bad as well! We had no problems with our meal. :)
