Breakfast was delicious French toast was amazing, we ordered more as we couldn’t get enough - perfectly light and crispy with peanut butter inside The satay beef with noodles was yum, as was the ham and macaroni Good prices and the staff were so lovely!
We arrived late in Hong Kong and found this restaurant near our hotel. We had Soy Chicken and Beef Tendon I think? The food was great and the serving was huge for $50 each. We also had this for takeout before our flight. The owner is nice and I can feel her warmth.
Enjoyed unique Hongkong style brunch, nice food good price. Highly recommended.
I was served by the boss, she is friendly and helpful, many Hongkong celebrity eat at this restaurant. I really enjoy the variety of the food here. It is delicious and has huge portion.
The place gives the feel of very authentic Hong Kong 茶餐厅(Tea Restaurant). The price is affordable, around 27 to 45 for a set, which comes with Main, Soup, and Drinks. The food is quite delicious, especially for the soup that comes with the set. The amount of meat is also surprisingly very big. As a tourist looking for an authentic Hong Kong feel, I would Recommend this restaurant.
Very cheap and delicious food, and the owners are very kind (which is quite rare for HK )
The food here is great, especially the instant noodles with Spam. The staff are nice and the atmosphere is great. Would definitely recommend people to come.
Authentic Cha Chaan Teng. Manage expectations for atmosphere. Value for money.
