I barely tasted the corned beef and the overwhelming taste of eggs permeated. With that being said, the French toast made up for it. It was maybe the best version of French toast I've ever had. Slightly crunchy crust with a sweet custardy center. Compared to those viral pancakes I had at Golden HOF a few days prior, this is way better and like half the price.

The Grapefruit Honey Chicken Wings were incredible -- super juicy with a bright, sticky citrus glaze that hits just right. The Baked Fried Rice was pure comfort food, coming out piping hot with a golden, bubbling layer of melted cheese and breadcrumbs over the top. It took a little extra time to bake, but it was 100% worth the wait. The toast here is elite. While the Classic HK French Toast is reliable, the Sesame French Toast is an absolute must-order. Slicing into it lets out this warm, rich filling that isn't too heavy or sickly sweet. Pro-tip: the toasts come out fast alongside the wings, so if you like dessert last, just order them after your main! We walked right in without waiting, and the staff kept everything running super smoothly. Highly recommend swinging by during the afternoon lull to skip the peak rush.

We ordered: +Salty Duck Egg with Jumbo Shrimps Fried Rice - this had some garlic chips throughout, which was off-putting; the shrimp was slightly overcooked, and the salty duck egg didn't add much to the dish +Beef Chow Fun - this was more on the bland side and could have been stir-fried better +the Condensed Milk Butter Toast - our favorite out of all the items we ordered; this was buttery, crispy, and decadent with the condensed milk filling - great for breakfast or dessert! +and, a watermelon drink - just okay; just blended watermelon There is a bit of a wait, as this narrow place gets fully packed during primetime lunch and dinner hours. Staff is somewhat attentive, and could have checked-in on parties more. Note that there are only 2 bathrooms, and they are not kept well! +Condensed Milk Butter Toast!

I went with the Bolo Bun Cod Fish Burger with Wedge Fries, Salad and HK Milk Tea combo. Everything was freshly made. - Bolo Bun Cod Fish Burger: They are not skimpy with the cod! The burger has a big (almost as big as the bun!) and a small chunk of flaky Cod, coated in a crisp sturdy batter. The bolo added some sweetness, which went well in the burger. Most of the bolo is missing that flaky crisp bite, but that is the nature of making it into a sandwich. The edges were still crisp. - Wedges: fantastic! Crispy exterior, with a fluffy interior. The shape (looks like it is a thick spiral cut) lends well to that texture. - Salad: was fresh, with a non descript dressing. Added some greens and crunch (onions and pickled radish) to the meal. - HK Milk Tea: Great tea flavor and not too milky. There was a lot of ice though. Overall, a great quick spot to hit if you're in the area. I will have to try the fried pork cutlet next time!

Where blue-collar Cantonese lunch meets British influence.You MUST get the pulled (6+ times!) stocking Hong Kong Milk Tea (less ice). The cafe's version is actually much better than the C-pp- Tea shop (specializing in it) down the block. This tea is medium-strong and medium creamy (creamer & evaporated milk + sugar). I've had the Black Pepper Beef Noodles/ Spaghetti. The flavor and sauce was excellent & well seasoned. Lots of pepper and onion slices. I like the blend of Western spaghetti with the savory sauce. One issue was the thin-cut shaved beef in the dish. Seems like the chef folds it into the noodles because it cooks so fast, but I had a lot of underdone pieces which might have gotten me sick. I would order this dish again because the flavor was that good, but ask for the meat "well-done" or served on the side. Marathon Cafe is inside LIC Food Hall.

Our main dishes were a Pineapple & Chicken Fried Rice ($11.33) and Beef Stew Noodle Soup ($13.34). Food was all done well and very comforting. I ended up with leftovers, which I happily enjoyed later. You also can't go to a HK cafe with the HK Style Milk Tea ($5.67), which I wished came in a bigger cup.

When we asked whether they had clay pot dishes, she twice told us to "look at the menu" with an attitude instead of helping us. The service throughout the meal was poor. Our children's plates were taken away in the beginning and we were not even given enough utensils. Staff members were also talking behind us in Cantonese, which made the experience very uncomfortable. The biggest issue was the bill. The restaurant added a "charge" that appeared to be an included tip or service charge, but nobody informed us about it. Since it was not clearly explained and they still asked for an additional tip, we unknowingly tipped twice. Only after getting home did we realize the total did not add up. They even charged us for take out box. When I returned to ask about it, the manager/owner was extremely rude and unprofessional. Instead of apologizing for the confusion, she questioned us, blamed us, and repeatedly motioned for me to stay quiet. She even wanted to check the camera to verify how much tip we left. At no point did anyone apologize for the misunderstanding or the poor customer service. I also felt that families with children were treated differently and unwelcome there. Customers should carefully review their bills before paying here. Charging an included gratuity without clearly informing customers, while also requesting an additional tip, is misleading and unacceptable. The overall attitude from management was arrogant, disrespectful, and completely lacking in professionalism. Dining out should be an enjoyable experience, but this restaurant completely ruined that for us. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this restaurant for anyone.

Stopped by Sing Choi Kee at Tangram on a Friday around noon and found the place packed. Despite the…read morelunch rush, service never seemed to skip a beat. The real standout was our waiter, who appeared to be juggling seating guests, taking orders, delivering food, and bussing tables simultaneously. Somehow he managed it all efficiently and professionally without missing a step. We ordered two of their signature dishes: the Slippery Eggs with Shrimp over Rice and the Hong Kong French Toast. Both were excellent and easily large enough to share. The eggs were silky and rich, with perfectly cooked shrimp and a savory sauce that paired well with the rice. The Hong Kong French Toast was everything you'd hope for--crispy on the outside, soft inside, indulgent, and topped with ice cream. Definitely not a dish for anyone counting calories, but absolutely worth it. The Bear Iced Tea is admittedly a bit of a gimmick, but I'm a sucker for that sort of thing. Watching the bear-shaped ice slowly melt into the drink added a fun touch to the meal. What impressed me most was how efficiently the kitchen operated. Even with a full dining room and constant turnover, the food came out surprisingly quickly and looked exactly like the photos.

The tom yum seafood with rice noodles was the star dish of the afternoon -- sweet, flavorful, and packed with a generous amount of seafood. Keep in mind this dish is only available on weekends. I'd come back a third time just for the tom yum soup. Service was good and the staff were attentive. Note: you order and pay at the register, and the waitress brings the food to your table.
