Local / Hong Kong Food

Tung Po

Lively “dai pai dong”, cafeteria-style venue offering a seafood-centric menu of classic Hong Kong grub & beer. Good place to learn how to open a bottle of beer with one single chopstick!

Pang’s Kitchen

Located near Happy Valley which makes it perfect to go to before/after seeing the horserace. Warmly family-run, all of their dishes are great!

Cha Chan Teng (HK Style Café)

Cha Chan Teng - being the local Hong Kong cafes, be mindful the auntie & uncle waiters can be louder, blunter but very sweet at times. I would say ready in your mind what you are going to order before sitting would be better. I would say it is worth it!

If you do stop by, try their pineapple buns or even better,with the cold thick slice of butter inside that we called Bor Lor Yau (Bor Lor = Pineapple; Yau = oil)

You should not miss Hong Kong style milk tea - but be careful - they are quite high in caffeine if you are sensitive!

Cheung Hing (Happy Valley) - Very local historic cafe of Hong Kong where many celebrities have been. They are famous for pineapple bun sandwich (Yes, pineapple buns with luncheon meat and fried inside), and their egg tarts are very famous too!

Kam Wah Cafe (Mong Kok) - near Goldfish Market

Kwan Kee Claypot Rice (Michelin Guide) - is one of the most famous shops in Hong Kong! But do not go when you are starving as there is often a long wait! Try earlier or later at night!

Street food:

Egg Waffle as a light street snack

- Mammy’s pancake

- North point pancake

Fei Jie in Mong Kok. If you are into trying to eat flavourful snacks, this is for you! From cuttlefish balls to turkey kidneys - depending on how adventurous you are! You would see it from afar with the long queue.

Noodles:

Tam Jai / Tam Jai Sam Gor. Local favourite. Tre are many branches serving different spicy/sour yunnan noodles. Absolutely addicting. If you can only take ShinRamen spiciness level, I recommend ordering ‘10 little spice’ and do not go more than ‘5 little spice’.

Kau Kee Restaurant (Central). Michelin guide - possibly the best beef brisket noodles in Hong Kong, Wesley’s favourite! Angel likes the curry beef brisket noodles with e-fu noodles (pronounced as E Meen)

Dim Sum:

Tim Ho Wan has become the fast-pace dim sum places if you are in for a quick treat!

Food from other Countries

La Vache

Parisian Steakhouse with unlimited fries. Two locations on HK island and one at Tsim Tsa Tsui. The one in Central is the most vibrant one out of all, and when you are waiting - you can grab some wine at Angel’s favourite bar La Vache.

Samsen is a michelin guide Thai food - great vibes and very close to a famous bar called Coa.

Coffee:

Fineprint (Angel’s favourite coffee shop), there are quite a few branches. The one at Soho is around touristy photo spots whereas the one in quarry bay is relaxing! Australian coffee, their Ricotta toast is a nice sweet breakfast!

In terms of Wesley’s favourite coffee spot - it is Starbucks.

Drinks:

Wesley’s go-to Bar

Draftland (draft cocktails) - where they organized the cocktails according to the strength of alcohol. As I(Angel) am typing this.. I don’t know how many do the boys usually drink there…….

Angel’s go-to Bar

La Cabane (wine bar) - cute little bar if you are in the area. They have plenty of bistro food as well - lunch options are good too!

Famous Bars:

Coa is a #1 Asian Best bars for a few years! Angel doesn’t like cocktails usually but Coa has never disappointed!

Ozone is the highest rooftop bar in the world, located at the top floor of Ritz-Carlton where our Banquet would be! Not only the scenary, their cocktails do not disappoint either! Do pick a night with clear sky to enjoy the view to the fullest!
