    Just know that this place has no made up, funny, english name for their business, and luckily someone posted a picture here for me to even do a review of the joint. Another BBQ place to try to take away business, or add to the food court diversity of Crystal Mall. They have lamb skewers, like some other stall that has been highly recommended, and they have other meat skewers ranging from chicken, beef, vegetables etc. They also have other combo like sets on the menu that I saw.

    The last time I was here with my partner, we ordered a beef and lamb skewer, and oddly enough the beef taste like lamb, and the lamb taste like pork. They were good, but compared to that other place, not as flavourful. The price is pretty good, at $1.25 a skewer, is another cheap bargain in this food court. Just another solid addition to Crystal Mall, and it seems they have opened up another stall downstairs selling cold food.

    I ordered a skewer of lamb and a skewer of beef.  The beef tasted like lamb and the lamb tasted like pork.

    I am pretty certain I would not come back to this place again for more lamb skewers because Want Want's lamb skewers are just so much better. The lamb meat at 99 BBQ House was flat and stale. It's like eating caged chicken as opposed to free-range chicken.

    * New BBQ stall in Crystal Mall Food Court *

    This food court continues to improve with new offerings.  My latest find is this new BBQ food stall, which specializes in various skewers grilled as you order them right before your eyes.  The smell coming off that grill was enticing!  

    Ordering without speaking Mandarin can be a challenge as the grillmaster (http://www.yelp.ca/biz...) did not speak a single word of English.  He was friendly,  but eventually gave up on me and called a very friendly woman from the back who spoke a bit of English to take my order.  

    There was also no English sign giving the name of this stall.  So here you go to help you locate it:  http://www.yelp.ca/biz...

    They have a wide variety of items to grill up, including several types of meat, lots of different veggies, and lots of different organs.  In addition they have some soups on offer which they prepare in the back.  

    I tried out my staple of lamb skewers.  They were reasonably priced at $1.25 per skewer, and were very tender.  They had just the right fat to meat ratio, and were generously sprinkled with cumin and chili powder.  A delicious snack!  

    As an aside, I skipped the "colon soup" as I'm not a huge fan of eating colons.  But that's just me.....If colons are your thing, this is the only spot I have seen offering colon soup in the Vancouver area....
