Since…read moreI didn't get my HK Style French Toast from Australia Dairy Company the other day, I was excited to try it here. Kam Wah Cafe is also famous for their freshly baked Pineapple Bun and Butter. Can't start your day without some HK Milk Tea and Iced Ovaltine. My son said it's a good thing the nai cha in the states are not as good because he was starting to develop an addiction. Lol. For those of you who don't know, it's made with Ceylon leaves, evaporated milk and sweetened condensed milk. The French toast was so damn delicious but a bit indulgent. I do wish I could taste more of the peanuts. My son loved his bolo bao. We also shared a hot bowl of macaroni soup with Spam and lettuce. Thinking back, I regret not trying the Spicy Satay Beef Instant Noodle. I will have to look for this back in the states. The aunties working here are just the most adorable, very kind and welcoming. One of them took the time to help us navigate the huge menu and recommended a few items. I would come back again and again if I could. I have a mad love for these iconic HK Style Cafes aka Cha Chaan Tengs. These affordable quick-paced restaurants were influenced by the city's 150 years of British rule. Aside from the classic breakfast items, they also offer many delicious rice and noodle dishes in the afternoon.

We got here fairly early, so we didn't have to wait for a table. Service was as expected - quick, efficient, and no nonsense. A tell-tale sign of a good HK cafe. The food just hit the spot for me, bringing me right back to my childhood memories of eating this on weekend mornings at our local HK cafe. Note that they don't accept foreign credit cards, so be prepared with cash, Octopus, or Alipay.

Western food! The…read moreflying pan has very reasonable prices, poor coffee, mediocre food, and good service. I ordered the salmon Benedict, Kenzie the pepper and onion Benedict. The eggs being over cooked, had a non runny yolk. I ordered sides of baked beans and corn grits which were both fine. Our plates came out with the sides switched up. Not a big deal. Not bad for a western breakfast in Hong Kong. Not great either. I've had better western breakfast in Shanghai, though you would think Hong Kong being the international hub it is, would have even higher standards for western foods. Eggs Benedict: 85HK. Unlimited coffee: 35HK. Using a restaurants own WiFi to post a 2 star review about them: Priceless.

I went with an Eggs Guacamole and a mango juice and I thought it was all pretty awesome overall. The food isn't overly expensive, you get fairly generous portions, and they definitely don't skimp on your free sides. The potatoes were a tad dry and I probably wouldn't go with them the next time around, but their grits aren't half bad. Hollandaise sauce is thick, yet runny, and the eggs were poached perfectly. The guacamole was offered in generous portions, and the only thing that I could possibly say they weren't generous with, in terms of portion size was my juice. That's fine though. I'll definitely be back to try a few other menu items.

Both were soooo good, hot or cold. I don't think the macaroni/ham soup or the egg ham toast were anything special, and would not bother ordering these again. The place is super popular, but the line moves quick. You may be seated with strangers at the same table (seems to be common practice in busy HK restaurants). Service was questionable, but I also saw a video online that they are purposely (& famously?) rude to the customers. What made me laugh was that we had barely sat down (my butt touched the seat for 0.1 second) and the waiter already wanted our order. When we said we needed extra time to go over the menu first, we got a bit of a death stare from the waiter. Their concept seems to be "come in, eat right away, and get the hell out!" I had been forewarned by my friend about the service here though, so I wasn't surprised. I'd still come again just for the pudding.

One thing to keep in mind, you might need to share table with other customers. I ordered the classic meal, macaroni with soup and ham, with scramble eggs, and buttered bread on the side. This meal also comes with a drink, and I ordered Hong Kong milk tea. The milk tea was smooth and authentic. If you want to experience 'Hong Kong' culture, this is the place for you.

If you want that true local dining experience in HK, check this place out if you're in Tsuan Wan…read more Or even stop by because it's a short walk from the Tsuen wan train station. It's open all the time and offers piping fresh pineapple buns along with other assortments of buns and egg tarts that can be purchased right outside to go or ordered while you're at the table. You seat yourself when you walk in then they'll take your order once seated. The check is brought to you ahead of time but you won't pay until you bring the check up to the counter when you're done. Definitely a cheap eats option as we had two meals along with two pineapple buns and egg tarts for only around $15 US!! Downside is that it's cash only, they didn't accept credit cards.

The view and environment here is top notch and is a great place to go to see the view of the city. Cocktails are pricey but also were good. I also had the chocolate soufflé, which I didn't like that much. Otherwise I probably would have rated five stars.

Top floor and great service…read more I think for the price it's totally worth it. This place is slightly more expensive for breakfast that the JW Marriott (and its in the same building but with a separate entrance) but it's got an amazing view and the food is delicious. The place is super chill, good background music and good vibes from the staff. It also has a chill vibe in the way that it's laid out, there's a feeling of openness. Maybe that feeling has to do with the epic view however. A few seats are in window corners where you get a great panorama view. Other seats are internal but still have a good view from a distance. I would go back, if for no other reason just for the fact that I had something I've never had before anyplace and it was really good. They have an eggs Benedict with short ribs in place of the ham. It's a Hong Kong take on the dish. We also had the pastries and muffins to share for the table. All were amazing.

This was the third and final stop of our Sham Shui Po breakfast adventure and I was hoping we'd finish on a bang. Since our party was small enough, we were seated with another couple and shared the table. The menus didn't have English and we ended up using Google Translate a lot but I'm reading reviewers saying that there are English menus so make sure to ask for them! Of course, we ordered the beef and scrambled egg sandwich to share and added on a french toast. We also ordered some HK style milk tea, which is mixed with coffee. It's not specifically mentioned on the menu but if you order cold, it'll come sweetened and hot is unsweetened. Overall, the meal was just alright. The beef and egg sandwiches didn't have much of a flavor and I thought the ground beef was a little dry. The french toast, however, was excellent. Moist, slightly crunchy on the outside, and stuffed with some peanut butter. I'd come back to try something else on the menu but I wouldn't really recommend the sandwiches.

There was beef bits in the sandwich, which they replaced for us. The 2nd one had beef chunks in there. When we told the waiter, he said it is what it is they don't care. So when I told them to take it off the bill since it was not edible for the vegetarian and we didn't eat it that's when the bad attitude really came. And their "famous" beef sandwich really wasn't good either. A complete waste of time in my opinion. The internet hype is a big lie.

So if you really like dessert you might end up being disappointed. I came here for the fish maw and other stuff, so I was happy! Besides fish maw, I highly recommend trying their shrimp. It's so plump, succulent and crunchy! I believe they said it's from Vietnam. Their sashimi selection was very decent too. Most of the time I'd skip the sashimi, but they've got clams and amaebi, yum yum! Also, service was excellent. Attentive even though they're slammed. The waitress never stopped clearing out empty plates throughout our meal.

After becoming obsessed with Taiwanese breakfast whilst visiting Taipei, I researched where I could get my grubby hands on it in Hong Kong. It was a fruitless and devastating search, as I came up with nothing. I decided to ask my Taiwanese colleague and lo and behold - she stumbled upon Wong Ah Ma Soya! My German friend (read: non-Chinese speaking, like me) and I plotted our field trip to the Hung Hom neighborhood of Kowloon. Once we found the small storefront, the woman working shooed us away with a 'No English!'. Oh, but that didn't stop us. I had prepared for this situation in advance by requesting Chinese translations of the menu items we enjoyed so much in Taipei. I flashed my credentials, and we were allowed to take a seat. Victorious! Though they didn't have the egg pancakes we love so much, we did get to indulge in hot, sweet soy milk and the glutinous rice rolls stuffed with sugary pastry. Both items were every bit as good as we had in Taipei! For the two of us, we paid $40 HKD. That's my kind of breakfast: cheap and outrageously delicious! I think that lady is going to be seeing a lot of us! 2016 goal: She'll have memorized our 'usual'.
