Guidebook for Yau Tsim Mong District
Food Scene
The food here is fantasic! Just a small restaurant with tables outside in the alley, this is a very casual dining experience with great service and fun vibes. Our top recommendations are the raw fish, pork adobo and deep fried pork belly. The mojitos are also great or you can try Dark Horse beer from the Philippines.

This is a classic Hong Kong cha chaan teng (tea restaurant) that has become something of an institution. If you come around midday to 3pm expect long cues but a quick turnover. This is not a place you're encouraged to linger. Definitely try the egg custard. This is also a good place to sample from local HK comfort food including the club sandwhich, macaroni in soup, half tea and half coffee mix and instant noodle with beef brisket.
