It's always tea time…read more.. ComeBuyTea is located right outside the Mong Kok Station and I'm a sucker for a cup of refreshing tea. What I do love about here is that you're also able to create your own from at least five types of tea and there are seats in the back as well for all patrons that purchase a drink it's kept at a comfortable coolness along with USB port for some recharge. The staff wasn't as quite friendly as he didn't ask about our sweetness level and I forgot to mention ton it as well so for me personally it was SWEET and had a difficult time drinking it but was very happy to have this refreshing cup of tea. Thank you!

I hope they make the pineapple egg waffle soon but for now with all their different flavors, it's still good. You can never go wrong with the a classic one as well. Freshly made to perfection every order and crisped perfectly. I can't wait to fly back and indulge in a hot egg waffle everyday.

This is THE PLACE for Michelin star egg waffles. They have many locations around Hong Kong such as…read moreJordan and Kwun Tong. I want to say that not all locations are alike due to their prices being variant depending on location. The consistency on the taste is amazing and if you get a regular egg waffle at their Kwun Tong location, it will be the same. The egg waffles were so fresh and soft. It was so heavenly! The outside was crispy and just the best. Hong Kong is known for its amazing egg waffles and I feel that Mammy's is the epitome of what you should get in Hong Kong! There are so many interesting flavors such as durian and taro BUT they have more of the "normal" flavors such as chocolate chips and matcha. Depends on what you like but trust me, this was life-changing.

This place is not overrated at all. Lives up to all the hype - I didn't even know there was a hype…read morefor this restaurant until I got back home and looked it up online! FOOD Silky smooth tofu, you really can't ask for more. I chose the hot tau fu fa and I was blown away. It was only $9. I had the tau fu fa at Lamma Island and I must say that this store blew those ones out of the water. The tofu would just melt in your mouth. I want another bowl just thinking about it. You can add more brown sugar or ginger sugar water if you like your tau fu fa to be a bit sweeter. The ginger infused sugar water gives the dish a bit of a kick - you can barely taste the ginger but it adds some spice to the tofu. They also sell bottled soy milk so you can get one for the road. SERVICE/ATMOSPHERE Quick turnaround and service. They served the tofu before I even got a chance to pay. Efficiency at its finest. There is limited seating so don't expect this to be a place where you can sit and chat. The guys were friendly and were helpful when I asked for recommendations. Will definitely go again - this time I'll be sure to bring a few bowls back home.

I love coming to Tai Po for this place ! It's actually one of the reasons why I come all the way…read morehere. Because of the holidays, most shops raise their prices. This place raised theirs by a dollar, so it's $9 for dine in (only 3 seats) and $10 for take out. I have no regrets especially on a cold night with piping hot perfect texture tofu soup! Yes there is another shop that sells this too, but the other shop has other options to add into the classic.

One of the few things I make sure to never leave Hong Kong without doing at least once is having a…read moresip of the sweet coconut nectar from Coconut King. In the near decade since my last review, it has become one of my most frequented businesses and a rite of passage destination for all of my new-to-HK visitors. This was a must-visit for life in the street side foods of Kowloon. (#1) However, this last trip to HK I saw no lines and only one person working the stand. I came through Dundas on multiple occasions to see very little activity, making me wonder if this was the effects of the post-pandemic downtrodden economy, but alas I brought a group of friends and we ordered several drinks. The end result was it was nicely cold, but a tinge blander and less sweet than I had remembered. It was still refreshing, but the wow effect was gone. Before there were people behind the counter cracking open cans of coconut milk and the continuous mixing of drinks, but felt slow and the vibe was a downer. My friends didn't seem too impressed, which I understood why. The bottle prices are up 4HKD (now 30HKD) from the last decade, which is not as crazy as expected. Considering that they've recently expanded to Prince Edward earlier this year, I imagine the brand is doing well, despite it not feeling the same. I'll be back again soon, and while I anticipate another visit, it will be with much lesser expectations. ___________ (#1) Yai Ma Tei is the best.

Located in the heart of…read moreMongkok, they are truly hard to beat: no pretension, awesome prices, efficient service, and above all, delicious products. I honestly wish all bakeries could operate the way they do. There are no English signs and the workers do not speak much English at all. (#1) The place is old school and super local. Instead of grabbing a tray and serving yourself, in this setup the items are out on display in tubs and you point to each one that you want the worker to package for you. There is always a crowd here, so items run out quick. I love their version of the egg tart (蛋撻) and the wife cake (老婆餅) is one of the best I've had. A popular pastry is their hot dog pastry (腸仔包), which is fluffy and almost buttery with every bite. They have an awesome variety of shao bing (燒餅), which they bake and grill almost looking like stuffed pancakes, but they're usually filled with a sweeter ingredient such as bean paste (豆沙), sweetened custard (奶黃), azuki / red bean (紅豆), just to name a few. Everything ranges from $3-7 HKD, which in my book is extremely affordable. Try to target the items you want ahead of time and be sure to bring cash. I wouldn't bother calling ahead of time and I would suggest being patient with the staff when the crowds are fierce. ___________ (#1) If you can't rock the 廣東話, be prepared to point.

Was served three ricotta pancakes ($118 hkd) with blueberries, syrup and bananas. Although the portion was small, the fluffiness of the pancake and light sweetness of the syrup made the dish de-lish! If you go before 11am on mon-fri you get a choice of one of four drinks- i opted for the lemon tea with charred lemons (makes a big difference!!). They also had mint infused water near the bar area, and a separate two floor area for seating, accessible by walking out and around the left corner into a separate below space. Mason jar lights dangle from the ceiling and a light teal wall and yellow flowers brightens the room. My friend and I sat here for a little over an hour sketching the space. They give you a buzzer that beeps when ur food is ready for pick up- my pancakes took around 20 min, as there was a group of 5 in front of me. The bathrooms clean, the service is good, and their playlist is indie coffeehouse! Not crowded on a Monday around 10. A great place!

Since this place opened a few weeks ago, everytime I walk by during the work week, the lines and…read morecrowds are so long and so dense you would think that they are giving away free apartments here in Central. I am never one to wait in a line (life is short and I choose to not wait in lines), but by rare chance this weekend, we walked by and there was barely a line. When I asked my Chinese husband why this brand was so popular, he said that they are no more expensive than other bubble tea spots, but they use a better tea. Our tea drink cost $18HKD, plus an extra $4HKD for our pearl add on. You place your order from the street counter from their extensive menu, pay and then wait for your number to be called (they did request to see the receipt when we grabbed your drink, so be sure to not throw away or anything before you snag your beverage). The menu is in Chinese and English, it is clear to understand your options and you can always add pearls to any drink that might not already have them. Some drinks served with ice, others are not. We shared the lemon premium jasmine green teat (and added pearls) from the "suggested menu." It tasted like a really satisfying lemon shake-up (my Midwestern roots are showing!). Sweet, satsifying, very delicious. I also loved that it is served in a paper versus a plastic cup. An environmentally friendly niche can make someone like me more loyal to one brand over another. The shop is fronted by glass, so you can see the dozen or so employees almost surgically preparing the tea drinks. There were maybe 15 people mulling about ordering and waiting like us and it took maybe 8-10 minutes for us to get our drink. Not certain I would wait with the masses when they are super busy, but I will definately snag one on the times I see there is little to no line.
