I have been traveling back and forth Taiwan so frequently that I almost see myself as half a…read moreTaiwanese; one of the things that they pride themselves in has to be the food. Indeed, why would they not? Whether it is the street food found in street markets or proper meals such as beef noodles or taiwanese bento, Taiwan has it all. Having said that I have a secret rule of thumb when it comes to food, that is, I will never eat Taiwanese food in Hong Kong and the same applies to the Hong Kong food in Taiwan. It might be a preconception on mine that the authenticity would very much be lost when the cuisine is introduced to a foreign piece of land; adding to that would be the fact that I have been let down for too many times and have gradually lose faith in it. It wasn't until I have come to this shop coincidentally that I gradually restore hope in Taiwanese cuisines in Hong Kong. I think the best way to tell whether a restaurant is good or not is to try out the basics; beef noodle soup is a staple of Taiwan and it would very well be a good indicator in how well a restaurant prepare their foods. The broth is quintessential in a bowl of noodles and 程班長 does it like no others. Traditional taiwanese beef noodle broth is rich and seasoned with soy sauce, behind the mellow fullness a punch of heat will catch you by surprise, and this is exactly how the broth is like in 程班長; going against the slightly broad and substantial noddles, the two matches perfectly. Whereas for the priced jewel, the meats, which could either be brisket, tendon or tripe or all 3 of them, are all very well braised and are melt in your mouth tender. Last but not least, the pickles that add to the noodle soup play an important role in spicing up the flavors as well as freshen up the mouthful. Thank to this restaurant, may be it is not a bad idea to give a little try on taiwanese restaurants in Hong Kong; a leap of faith is indeed called for nonetheless.

I wish we had Teawood in California! I'm definitely going to go back later this week to try the…read moredesserts since I didn't get the chance last time and they are known for their sweet drinks and toast! However their savory food is just as tasty. My sister ordered beef noodles and not only is is so flavorful, but the beef meat pretty much melts into your mouth. My smoked salmon salad was one of the best salads I've ever eaten and the entire bowl was empty by the time I was through with it. Quality food and service! Edit: I came back with the sole purpose of trying their desserts (and other savory foods) and it was worth the half hour wait, I'll tell you. We ordered pasta, the cookies and cream brick toast, jasmine milk tea, and brown sugar milk tea with wheat. Pasta: forgot the name but SO GOOD like better than some of the high class Italian pastas I've had in California. How can a Taiwanese cafe that specialize in dessert create such divine pasta I don't know but I ain't complaining! Brick toast: 10/10 I'm so used to eating the inside of the brick toast and leaving the crust to the dust because of how hard and flavorless it is, but this is hands down the best brick toast I've ever had in my life where I was able to eat both the crust AND the inside. Jasmine milk tea: good taste, good quality. Good enough for my mom to crave more for it even after being back in California for a week. Brown sugar milk tea with wheat: maybe it's because I'm unable to drink this stuff without getting sick, but my throat started to feel funky after two sips and the texture of the wheat made me feel uncomfortable to drink anymore. Most of their drinks are brown sugar so I wish they had more flavors but maybe this is what they're known for. Everything else is great, though!

English Review: Tea…read morewood is a very refreshing and trendy Taiwanese chain. For me, the teal bluish coloring combined with the wood surfaces provide a very classy and fun environment to eat. My party of 2 came around peak hours ~1:30pm and was seated in about 10 minutes. However because of the lunch rush, was only allowed to stay for 60 minutes. My order: ~$150 HK or about ~$25 US Popcorn chicken - nice and crispy; definitely a lot better than some of its American counterparts Mixed fruit tea - felt like I could have made it at home to be honest; however, they gave a huge load of fruit( Mangos, Dragon fruit, strawberry, blueberry, plums) which made it super refreshing Latte - cutest little coffee art I've ever seen! All in all pretty cute place. A little busy for my tastes but I still had a good time. 4/5 stars :)

We were just wandering around the Cheung Sha Wan area, looking for a place to eat. Just when we…read moredecided on a Vietnamese place, we walked past Taiwan Bowl and got suckered in by their cute design. I'm always a sucker for cute packaging. Taiwan Bowl is famous for their deep fried chicken steak so, of course, we had to try that. There was also a set where you could pick 3 toppings over rice. In general, their sets come with rice or noodles and a drink. The price range is anywhere from $46-$64. I thought the chicken steak was well seasoned, juicy, and definitely big enough to fill you up. I thought the minced pork sauce (you can pick spicy and non spicy) that it came with was a little bit too thick but still very tasty. We had a dumpling where the skin is made with egg, pork cartilage, and mushroom and pork balls. Everything was delicious and my tummy was quite happy after finishing it all. If I'm in this area I would consider coming back to Taiwan Bowl, but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way to come here.

SUMMARY After a disastrous first few hours in HK, this was…read moreour first meal in HK and it was better than expected. It definitely cured the hangry in all of us! Would recommend, but don't expect great service here...or in HK for that matter. ATMOSPHERE (5/5) While I could look this up, I believe this is a licensed theme restaurant as evidenced from the cute, cartoon like atmosphere TeaWood restaurant. The place is adorned with cartoon characters in a woody setting. It's very well done and hat's off to the people who put this together. FOOD (5/5) Wife says this is a Taiwanese character that serves Taiwanese meals and maybe because of this, we were very happy with our meal---mostly because we had a really crappy time getting to our AirBnB and the general attitude of people who we encountered along the way (unhelpful and rude). I ordered a tripe based soup with noodles in a beef broth and it was a 5/5 for me. The broth was very clean, not oily. Noodles were perfectly good. Tripe was not over or undercooked. Vegetables still had a bit of snap to it. Really happy with my meal. My wife ordered a red bean dessert that I took a few bites as well. One of the things I liked about that was how perfectly cooked the mochi balls were. All around delicious. SERVICE (2/5) Perhaps this is a cultural thing, so HK people don't beat up on me too harshly for saying this: but even in a more pricier corporate type of restaurant like this, the service is not friendly was not friendly here and especially at smaller mom and pop shops ***anywhere*** we went in HK. Any time we asked a question, there was this sort of disbelief or umbrage that we would ask a question about what was in a dish, what a certain type of ingredient was, etc. RETURN VISIT? If we do return, we'd probably go back or at least I would. Sans the service, the restaurant is good and tourist friendly to a certain point.

Rocky road ice cream, slightly chewy and not so fried bread, whipped cream and strawberries! Yum! A cute place, food came out quickly and servers were polite (you may need to flag them down).

By that time, it was too late, the waitress had already given us tea and started chatting with us. So we order 2x beef egg noodles $40 ($5.13 USD) and a pig liver noodle ($5.13 USD). The stuff tasted OK. I wasn't expecting instant noodles. They were super busy and we still got our food fairly quickly. Good job staff at Wai Kee.

I happened to be in the Sham Shui Po area with a friend (after buying some electronic supplies at…read morethe arcade and street market), so I thought I'd give Wai Kee a try, as another friend recommended them for their beef and pork liver noodles. We had a bit of difficulty finding Wai Kee at first as the address was vague. We later found that there are 3 shops all along the same side of the street, all with people lined up outside - this was around 4pm! As my friend and I don't eat pork liver, we just opted for the regular beef noodles. It came out nice and piping hot - a definite good sign. The broth was tasty with the cooked beef, perfect for the winter cold. But I wasn't a big fan of the instant ramen noodles used, although typical of a local cha chaan teng. We also ordered the kaya toast which was absolutely delicious! It's essentially fried thick French toast with kaya (coconut jam) slathered in between. The woman sitting across from us (note: you WILL have to share tables), ordered her own after seeing ours, and had hers topped with condensed milk! People in HK like their food sweet, haha! Definitely worth the try if you're in the area, especially for the kaya toast!
