Jeremy Yau's Lau Gar is not the traditional Lau family style of Five Families fame but a hodge podge of his own from various sources. It's success speaks for itself, but outside of the UK everyone will be thinking of something different when you say Lau Gar.
Do a search of this forum and you'll find plenty to read.
