When Mr Liaw's son 廖宥鈞, who is a hotel dim sum chef joined the stall, he rebranded it Dr Q (even though the reserved Mr Liaw was initially reluctant).
Dr Q fans are touched by the Liaw family's sincerity and dedication in staying faithful to the tedious traditional recipe to give customers the fading old school textures, aromas, feel and flavours.

For his he ye fan 荷叶饭, Dr Q blend two different types of glutinous rice to give it a layered texture. To the steamed glutinous rice, Dr Q add braised pork belly, yam and carrot cubes, premium quality ginkgo nuts, sauteed squid and mushroom which are all wrapped in fresh lotus leaves. The rice and leaf bundles are then cooked by steaming in bamboo baskets, infusing the rice with flavours and aromas from the ingredients as well as the lotus leaves. Dr Q serves restaurant quality he ye fan at hawker prices.
Dr Q's rice balls are made with a blend 4 types of rice so they are tender yet have a light springy chew to the bite. The rice balls also have the comforting taste of rice. The rice balls served in savoury sweet pork soup are filled with minced pork, sesame paste or groundnut paste. Dr Q also have a sweet soup dessert version. These are nice but the main draw are Dr Q's unique signature rice balls.
