My Favorite Hong Kong Food

My Favorite Hong Kong Food

Hong Kong, being a short 4 hour flight from Singapore, is a regular destination for long weekends to visit friends and family. One of the main attractions is the amazing food - here are some of my favorites!

  • Entrecote Steak @ La Vache

    I tried to go, but there was an 1.5 hour long wait! I guess it must be good. Next time I'm in Hong Kong, I'll be sure to make reservations

  • Dim Sum @ Cuisine Cuisine, IFC

    Every dish here was truly delicious. We've all had the staple dim sum dishes countless times, but something about the quality and taste here made the food here really stand out. Couple that with a great setting and amazing view, you really can't beat having a nice afternoon lunch at Cuisine Cuisine to soak in all that Hong Kong has to offer.

  • Shabu Shabu Buffet @ Ushi Shabu

    The wagyu shabu shabu here was a crazy good quality, especially given the extremely reasonable price of $228 HKD for the Japanese Supreme Wagyu set. Add on the $20 HKD free flow of beer & cider, and you're in for an amazing meal.

    I'd suggest trying both Austrlian and Japanese Wagyu early on to see which you prefer - the marbling on the Japanese meat may be a bit rich for some.

  • Tsui Wah

    The Malaysian curry beef brisket and crispy buns w/ condensed milk are my favorite dishes as Tsui Wah, and I've yet to be disappointed over dozens of trips. Great food, cheap prices, and open 24 hours - what's not to love?

    Awesome soft-shell crab. Large portions and good quality - you can taste a healthy dose of crab meat under the texture of the fried shell.

  • Portuguese Egg Tart @ Macau Restaurant

    Seriously the best Portuguese egg tarts I've had. No trip to Hong Kong is complete without them, and friends from HK know this is the only thing I'll ask for when they visit me in SG.

    A fantastic meal that I am still trying to replicate in SG. Haven't found anything close so far!

  • Hot Pot @ Gyu Jin

    Enjoyed coming here with you and Xixi last time! The fried rice is actually pretty good.

  • Hot Pot @ Gyu Jin

    Gyu Jin strikes a fantastic balance of quality meat with a very good price. Opting for the $250 HKD-ish buffet, you'll get great cuts of beef and pork without breaking the bank. Add in free flow of drinks and Haagen Daz ice cream, and it is a truly amazing value.

  • Taiwanese Food @ Odeon Taiwanese Cafe

    Great 3-cup chicken! I haven't had it in a while, but I remember it being one dish that I tried to get back in Singapore and couldn't get anything close. Will definitely make an effort to go back next visit.

  • Tsui Wah

    I simply LOVE Tsui Wah! My fave dish is the Beef Kway Teow (Hor Fun in Cantonese) in Satay Soup. It's a must try!

  • Dim Sum @ Cuisine Cuisine, IFC

    Snake soup - yes, snake. Despite my attempts at avoiding this dish, peer pressure prevailed and quite surprisingly I enjoyed the dish. Doesn't taste any different than similar looking soups, and is apparently quite good for you.

  • Dim Sum @ Cuisine Cuisine, IFC

    Highly recommend the truffle fried taro - its like a chinese rendition of truffle fries, with some sort of sweet sauce. We cleaned this plate out super fast.

    The restaurant offers a fantastic, unobstructed view of the city.

    Free flow Asahi beer & Somersby apple cider for $20 HKD. About the most awesome add-on there is.

    A flyer of their menu - ridiculously good value.
