I usually like the more old-fashioned cocktail bars, but I have to admit that this place is really good. All their drinks are not just show off creations but create a new and unique taste sensation.
Their egg tarts are known to be one of the best in HK. Besides the creamy and velvety smooth custard, what truly make Tai Cheong’s egg tart special and different from others is the cookie-crust base. Read more.
Came here for the eggettes but quickly realized the real specialty was the ice cream. Burnt Fingers flavor was probably in the top 3 best flavors I have ever had.
Other than their infamous baos, it's worth trying their equally delectable short rib dumplings and apple-crusted pork belly!( perfect balance of smokiness, sweetness and sourness)
Sister bar to honi honi lounge in central. This is in 29th floor with a lovely roof terrace, bigger space and good vibe.
Extremely promising initial reviews https://www.openrice.com/en/hongkong/r-tasting-court-chinese-cuisine-happy-valley-guangdong-r499881
Egg waffles ice cream. A great fusion of Hong Kong desserts and ice cream. It will be an experience. Try it.
Amazing soba and green tea desserts! Definitely try their matcha ice cream - creamy and not overly sweet!
Roast Goose Leg over rice with salted egg is quintessential at Yat Lok, arguably the best Roast Goose eatery in HK! When dining in pairs, opt for half Roast Goose (+ additional leg) la carte to share.
"King Prawn Wonton" and "Fresh Minced Fish Ball" are the signatures and they're awesome! (you can get both in the same shot by ordering the 'Three Toppings Noodle' selection in the menu)
Steamed milk dessert is what people flock to this small cafe for. Also good are the silky tofu desserts and the papaya milk. You can also have noodles / pork chop and other HK cafe style dishes here.
I highly recommend this place if you want authentic classic Hong Kong breakfast. Wait.. better if you have a local friend with you. Or, don't be shy to ask for english-speaking waiter. Enjoy!
A somewhat "upscale" Hong Kong diner! Loved the wasabi mayo on the devil's pork chop bun and the truffle scrambled eggs! Might have to wait a few minutes of you come during lunch rush.
Beef egg toasted sandwich! Good for takeaway as u skip the queue! Just grab and go (to the next food destination! There's so many around the area!)
Things really take time as all dishes are carefully prepared by the chefs. It's best for a conversational/slow/wine (beer sake) sipping kind of experience. Therefore go with someone you can stand. :]
If you are in causeway at 3am, it is almost the only authentic japanese supper you can get. Koji-san is specialist in okonomiyaki, make sure you book the counter and enjoy his skill.
Century Egg and Pork Congee ($28) with Chinese doughnut ($11) is so good! Cheap and filling lunch! Busy and crowded though.
The best restaurant ever! Food is amazing, service is great (and genuine)! Order the meatballs and shiso duck fried rice. Katsu sando are also a must - they're not on the menu but they have them!
Great hidden gem for drinks! Extremely difficult to find at night when all the business are close. They have just a doorbell and the walls are painted black/grey - too dark to tell.
Try the Jax Cold Fashioned -- a flawless old fashioned enhanced with an ice ball made of Jax Coco 100% pure coconut water. The taste profile transforms as the Jax Coco ice melts!
Egg tart $5, pineapple bun with butter $10, hot milk tea/coffee $17, HK French toast $20. Great value and quality breakfast spot. Small and busy so might be seated with others, English menu available
A hidden gem in the bustling city. Typical HK breakkie - silky milk tea, instant noodle, crispy bun & macaroni.
Hidden in the back of the cellar level, behind all those sports and sneaker stores. Not in the regular Chungking Mansion entrance, but left of it with small escalators leading down
One of the best dim sum in HK, no reservation, go before noon, high ceiling, harbour view, good service. $680 for 4 pax, what else can you ask for? Love it!
worth waiting out the Q (it's usually very fast) for this great place. Har Gau and Siu Mai are the best. the owner studied in Europe, he's always nice with tourists. nevertheless, it's a local spot.
Baked bun with BBQ Pork, Steamed Beef Ball, Ha Jiao, Shao Mai, Deep fried spring roll with shrimp & egg white, Phoenix Talon, Vermicelli roll BBQ pork, Steamed rice with beef & pan fried egg
quality food, reasonable price. nice laksa, it taste a bit sour not like the singaporean one
AFAIK they have the best cream puffs in Hong Kong. Only available in Ocean Terminal branch! Ice-cream and other stuff is unremarkable.
The best traditional Chinese dessert shop of over 100 years in history. Yummilicious of their egg custard cake & almond dessert is my favourites.
Walked in by accident and intimidated by a strange menu? Get a Tung Shui of your taste and the egg custard cake. It's that easy.
Ultimate old school dim sum experience. Find your own seats and fight for the freshest dim sum when the trolley first pushed out. Lin Yung Bao (loutus seed bun) is as authentic as it gets.
Amazing choices, while not vastly diverse, what’s is on the menu will be delicious. For something sweet try the mushroom with tarp paste - blown away by presentation and the flavour is so delicious
The IT club of HK. The crowd is very diverse, models, expats, locals. Fridays are incredibly busy. Music is really bad, every time!
150 hk for the "tour" - that's not on the site. Tough to get to but worth a visit!
Very chilled place with a wide selection of local beer. They serve some interesting small bites too
Dim Sum is both cute and tasty. Try the custard bun, shrimp and veg dumpling. Three desserts can be cool too.
Custard buns (Lau Sa Bao) is possibly the best in the world. Cheap. Come after the night outs. It opens at 3am
Opens at 3am and closes at 4pm. Still, try to avoid peak hours or weekdays, in case you don't get a seat.
Must get mochi. Choices of fillings: Mango, Durian, Red Bean, Peanut & Custard. We tried other desserts too. I had Durian Sago with coconut milk, fresh & refreshing but not too sweet. Recommended.
This is by far the best Chinese food (Sichuan, in particular) I've ever had in my life. The fried soft shell crab with peppers come enough to feed 6 people. Required eating.
My all time favorite go to restaurant for some authentic spicy crabs in Hong Kong! Get their signature (medium or very, not super) spicy crab, scallops, mussels and seafood soup! Delicious!
Go with a HKer for an authentic market dinner. Make sure it's a large group to keep costs down. DO NOT miss the squid ink pasta!
Quintessentially HK -- speedy service, boisterous crowds, and food so delicious you won't be able to resist that seventeenth piece of succulent fried chicken. Eat everything, regret nothing. 乾杯!
Freshest seafood I've had in HK. Hidden gem! So much food that we could barely finish, and only paid 450/head. Not bad for one Michelin star (2010)
One of the better Chinese food out there. They have some really authentic tasty dishes. Definitely try their salt baked chicken, salt fried squid, soup and vege/pork wrap.
Love the soup wanton noodle (better than dry one). Whole prawn wanton, coz I don't eat pork! Portion is small, good for in between meals or supper.
"Hole in the Wall" Private Kitchen atmosphere is incredible. Everyone is served the same 12 courses. Love the Soup with Siu Choy & Chilli Beef Brisket.Owner's wife sings opera at the end of the meal.
Every single dish I ordered were delish : pork belly bao, the green tea condensed milk bao, LB fries, Brussels sprouts, pickled mushroom salad, staff were great. Yah bit pricy but totally worth.....
One of my favorite beer bar in Hongkong. Mainly serve the famous local craft beer Young Master, they also have other good craft beer from different places in the world. The food there are good too!
A popular HK tourist attraction, Tian Tan Buddha is a large bronze statue of Buddha Shakyamuni. There's a short climb up, should be ok for most - my 3yo managed fine ;) The scenic views are worth it!
There will be many lines but worth it for the tram and views. Meal ticket gets you inside the Buddha and a vegetarian lunch
Taking your time: 2 hours. Talks about what makes for an effective urban design. Third floor audio visual past/future is cool.
Certainly the best district of HK ! Lovely restaurants and bars ! Great atmosphere.
Looking for the social heartbeat of HK? Lan Kwai Fong has everything from dining, clubbing, bar hopping to shopping. China Bar with their Ladies Nights & fist pumping music is my personal favorite.
MK is a unique place.It's one of the most densely populated regions on the planet. The crowds are immense at some times. But that's a reason to visit. You really should see what this place is like.
I loved the Star Ferry since I was a little child.☺️💖Cheapest and most charming way to enjoy one of the most scenic Spots in HK. Get the ferry at 8pm to see the Symphony of Lights from the sea 😊💕
There are several things to see here. #1 the Market! #2 the pier the original pier that the royal family would use when they visited HK but was moved here to preserve #3 temple
My favorite park in HK, for its incredible views of Hong Kong Island and ease of access from the Kowloon MTR stop/W Hotel/Ritz-Carlton Hotel. Lots of grass, boardwalk, and open air.
A touristy temple but super crowded with locals as well. Known for making wishes come true. Need to buy joss sticks or mini windmill (that is thought to bring luck) before entering the temple.
Get a seat inside, order as quick as possible and try to ignore the bad service as they are super busy. But once you have a taste of the cheong fun you are in heaven, super delicious!
I love the lighting of this building which looks like a container Read more.
This newly opened, pet-friendly promenade gives you endless fresh sea breeze and excellent East Kowloon scenery along the sea. A good running route connecting to Quarry Bay and SOHO East as well .
Nice view over Hong Kong skyline, at beginning you also have famous avenue of stars.
One of the best museums in HK! Apparently, free admissions during Wednesdays! Otherwise, the ticket price is a very affordable 10 HKD. Either way (whether you pay or not), the experience is worth it!
Once the site of a military fort, and then later the infamous Kowloon Wall City, and finally torn down before the British handover. This park is steeped with history.
Sensitively restored as a creative hub for local designers. Worth a visit to the underground area and exhibition area on 5F for some interesting history.
Previously the living quarters for policemen it is now creativity new address. Fantastic place in terms of site, shops,art and craft galleries.
Beautiful building. Worth a visit even if there is not a special exhibit. One of hong kongs best kept secrets.
Gorgeous place and location in historic explosive compound. Great shows and restaurant, Ammo.
It takes 20 minutes to complete the journey on this 800-meter-long escalator, but it goes in only one direction -- down in the morning and up in the evening. Read more.
Most important TIP ever!!! When lining up for the train there are over head lights.... Go to the 8th ! Light and STOP. This is where the back most door opens . TheBest seat is back row right!!!
올라갈땐 센트럴에서 15번 버스를, 내려갈때 피크트램 타는것을 추천. I recommend bus 15 from central stn when you go up to the top of the peak. You can fully enjoy the scenary. Then take peak tram when you go back from the peak.
Crowded working temple - check out both sides they feel quite different from each other.
Built in 1848 during the British rule, this temple in Hollywood Road is one of the oldest ones in the territory. Dedicated to the Man Cheong, God of Literature; and Kwan Yu, god of martial valor.
Nice big cafe and bar with live music some nights. Very relaxed and industrial feel. The menu is quite eclectic. We only had a few snacks but they were ok.
Prob one of the best cocktail bars in Hk. Not cheap but def worth the try. Come here on Tuesday for the hot cocktail menu. Really good.
Lovely and hearty cocktails. They even do a tasting menu for cocktails where u get several different cocktails with some nibbles
Great classic dim sum like sui mai, shrimp dumplings, and Malayasian sponge cake. Draws people from all walks of life with their reasonable prices. Piggy buns are super cute
Chic place with great Happy Hour prices (till 8:00 p.m.) and exquisite culinary offerings. Ambar and staff offer some of the best hospitality in town.
Nice Bar to enjoy a glass of Wine or a beer - more fency than the other following in the street!
Good place to sample craft beers from local Hong Kong breweries. All 12 of their taps have an interesting local brew on offer and if you can't decide what to get you can order a flight of 4
Only craft beer bar in Tsim Sha Tsui. Nice selection of local beers on tap. Tasting flights: 4 x 5oz of your choice.
With 25 beer taps, easily the best craft beer establishment in Hong Kong. The friendly staff will let you try before committing -- plus Texas bbq and fried pickles sides make this an all-night stop!
Interesting loungey vibe in this underground bar. A little bit too old-school French luxe for me but cool nonetheless. The pornstar martini is definitely worth trying.
Approved by locals eventhough lots of tourists. A big pricey for the portion since it got famous. Best to order 2 bowls of wontons and 2 bowls of noodles to combine to 1 normal size wonton noodle soup
One of the long historical stall selling wonton (HK style). The bowl of noodle is not huge, & u can have 2 bowl of diff. variety of noodles; such as beef, pig trotters, wonton & etc. limited seatings
A must-try restaurant to eat dim sum and Cantonese cuisine if you visit Hong Kong. Michelin 2-star at reasonable price and great customer service. Must try it's BBQ pork bun and Char Siew!
Awesome Claypot rice (sausage) and wintermelon soup (in wintermelon)!!
I would take more photos of the other dishes but my hands wouldn't let go of the bowl and chopsticks. My 9pm dinner was so worth it; the food quality has always been excellent
A very local spot. Try to bring someone who can speak Cantonese. The claypot rice is a must. Consider adding the fermented sausage and a vegetable dish.
Consistently busy & crowded, all because the claypot rice is consistently good. Chinese sausage & liver sausage are great. Eel claypot rice is also excellent. Amazing local food. Grimy but great.
尖沙咀から車で30分ほど。漁港に接した「海傍道」というアーケードの両側には、生簀が並ぶ鮮魚店と海鮮料理店が所狭しと並んでいます。凡そ鮮魚店と海鮮料理店がセットになっているので、まずは好みのレストランを選んで、そこのスタッフと一緒にお店が持つ鮮魚店に行き、生簀の中から好みの食材を選ぶシステム。味付けと調理法を伝えれば、その通りに料理してもらえます。 広東語が話せる仲間が一緒だとベストですね。
There's the trinkets market, the cheap sex toy vendors, the rows and rows of stalls offering fortune telling. Street food -- hot, fresh, of questionable hygiene and totally irresistible -- beckons. Read more.
Prepare to haggle! The experience is quite humorous and fun. Remember that you should only pay 25% of the price they quote you. 💸
One of the more laid-back neighborhoods! Tons of cool bars/lounges, cafes and food choices. Wide sidewalks (for HK standards) and not crowded at all!
A favorite local dai pai dong, offering curry chicken wings with curry fried rice. So good.
Great beer selection on tap. Mains/sandwiches (esp Shanghai dip) are good, snacks not so good.
Nice dumplings, choose from all kinds of fillings. They even have daily specials. Tastes like home cooking.
Lots of tea to choose from, has chocolate tea which I love. Banana split tea is interesting, tastes like chocolate with hint of banana. Earl grey scones served with icecream, interesting take.
Line up early to avoid the wait. Easily the cheapest Michelin starred restaurant you can eat at. The xiao long bao is not to be missed.
Michelin starred for it's Xiaolongbao, but it's casual rather than upmarket. Lunch for two for ~300 HKD. Vegetarian items are clearly marked as well of type of meat (chicken, pork,etc) in each item.
Decent selection of food to choose from as well as the famed dumplings (xiao long bao) - traditional being the best. Even better if the air con wasn't blasting cold to rush diners out.
THE park of Hong Kong, where a lot of events take place including the lunar year market, flower exhibition and political events etc. right at the heart of the city.
Really crispy crush. Cheese and char Siu (roasted pork) pizza. They even have ma Po spicy pizza. Price is reasonable. Coming back. Oh. Great alcohol too. Oops.
85-year-old Mr Chui Hoi makes his dimsums from scratch. His 48-year-old son Mr Chui Kwok Hing also helps out, starting his hours from 1:30am! Source: AFP
What a gem! A classic Hong Kong dim sum tea house. Sublime dishes and value for money. Come with someone who speaks Cantonese or sit next to someone who speaks English. 8/10
Grannies and grandpas come here to swim in the morning. The stairway to this shed is secluded, but the view is worth it.
French toast/milk tea are amazing here, and super cheap. $50 for the meal in my photo. Go upstairs, first one against the right wall. You're looking for 瑞記咖啡，it's also romanised on the menus.
Mido encapsulates an old school ambience ( been here since the 50s!) to classic cha chaan teng food. Sitting here evoked a sense of nostalgia for old films, a very unique spot to check out!
Quaint little Hong Kong diner. Popular with tourists so there's an English menu. The baked spare rob with tomato sauce ($58) is really delicious!
Great varieties of Hong Kong style food- wonton noodles, congee, beef stir fried flat noodles, fried wonton & so much more. All delicious & real local authentic flavour! Long queue after 12pm.
Quite disappointed with the dishes overall, famous roast goose is avg, Yat Lok is still the best. All dishes size had reduced, not very tasty & very few fish in the fish dish. 5 pax/$2,600 no wine...
Amazing experience, great interesting exhibitions. Not a museum exactly, more like an unusual authentic exhibition space.
Originally built in the early 1900s for the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club, and converted to a community art space in 2013! Great place to see some art and have a quiet walk for FREE!
Nuts! Be prepared for an adventure. Just ask and save yourself a lot of hassle. The signs are all wrong (or incomplete). When you see a faint red light glowing around a lift, run for it!
Bring gallons and gallons of water unless you want to drink the untreated water (it's unlimited though). Me and my companion tried it because we have no choice, but thanks God nothing bad happened.
This night market is one of the crown jewels of Kowloon. Vintage posters, flee market finds, and great street food. If you hit up the dark side, you have to come here!
Looking for the sit-down café? It’s across the street on 3/F, Miramar Shopping Centre: https://foursquare.com/v/nakamura-tokichi/576e3dc3498e8ede532adb38
This place is a revelation. During my 10 day trip to Asia this was 1 of the best 'dishes' I had. Soft scoop green tea ice cream, crispy rice puffs, red beans & little mochi balls = heaven/food porn
A must-visit for the world's best bartenders, who stop on their travels at the marble bar to sip on expertly made gimlets, negronis and hurricanes. Live jazz in the evenings adds to the vibe.
Half and half neighbourhood bar and rock ’n’ roll joint, the Pontiac is one of Hong Kong’s liveliest – and stays that way until the early hours.
Volume is cranked up to 11 at this rock dive bar. Try Hobnail (scotch, ginger, Averna, orange oil) or meth blue gin-based Heisenberg. If that doesn't get you in the party mood the jello shots will.
amazing cocktails, the quinary sour is a great tip. Sometimes have guest bartenders. high class drinks, reasonable priced.
This hidden bar is at the top of a dark staircase, tucked inside a narrow alley off Wyndham. Like the Tardis, it’s surprisingly large inside for such a modest and hard to find entrance.
Caribbean food, nice rum selection, and freq. events like live music, pub trivia, and bingo. My only qualm? The prices are outrageous. Expect to pay $80 for a beer and upwards of $110 for cocktails.
A really good place to eat a great Sushi. The have a really good house music by a live Dj in the upstairs where the have a Cocktails Bar. Vibrant, fancy and the have a terrace (if you are lucky ;)
Note that there are two floors to this restaurant, if downstairs is full, there is a staircase to the left of the door. Follow it upstairs and go through the first door on the right.
There's a lot of good food here but the real star is the fried rice. Simple ingredients, perfectly executed. It's the tell in a Chinese restaurant, like onion soup in a French restaurant. Get it.
