Wooden topped farm-like tables, mismatched chairs, funky vintage pieces about. We had a their set lunch option, which included a small welcome app, homemade vegetable soup (with real veggies and a hearty consistency), entree or choice (we consumed the eggs and shrimp scramble & their stir fried veggie dish) and a drink. We also enjoyed one extra a la carte item of sweet and sour tofu. Total bill for two for lunch was $188HKD. The stir fried veggie dish was probably the best of the lot we consumed. Let me also highlight that the bathrooms were clean, spacious and very clean as well (kind of something to be noted in a city of tiny tiny restrooms!) The food was delicious and fresh. The staff was professional and friendly. The restaurant is clean and welcoming. We thought this was a good find and really reasonably priced for what we received to our table. With so many check boxes ticked on what we like from a restaurant, we would not hesitate to go back if we were in the area again.

It's a bit of a novelty food. They're large, they're slightly more bouncy since they make them themselves, and they absorb a bit more flavor if they've had it sitting in the sauce/broth longer. Just something you have to try but doesn't blow your mind

I've always walked past this restaurant upon exiting the Kwun Tong - Sai Wan Ho ferry terminus, so…read morea friend and I finally decided to feed our curious minds and grab an afternoon bite at The Salted Pig. The environment was very cozy and homey. We were seated in a booth facing each other, with cushions on each side. As a music aficionado, I will give them 5 stars for great background music. I don't always remember a restaurant's choice of music, but when I do, it's a good sign in my book. There is currently one other place in the world that ranks highly for great restaurant music, and that's back in California. I almost felt like I was back in the US for a second. But this is a review about The Salted Pig in Hong Kong, so I will focus on that. Without the slightest bit of hesitation, my friend picked the fish and chips. Reminiscent of his college days, so no surprise from him there! As I always find myself craving Mexican food, I decided immediately on the pork quesadilla. They also have some Californian craft beer available - I picked out an Anchor Porter for him. :) The pork quesadilla arrived first. It was almost unrecognizable at first. Never had I seen quesadilla served with salad on top. It looked absolutely enticing in every way, the color of the salad, olives, sour cream and guacamole contrasting against the tortilla. The fish and chips quickly followed and it looked heavenly. The fish were beautifully "beer-battered", giving it a nice, signature puffed appearance. The taste test: We were at The Salted Pig, so I expected the tortillas to be sufficiently stuffed with pulled pork. I'm afraid I was a bit let down... The quesadillas were filled with about 90% American cheddar cheese and 10% pork. (Deducted one star because of this) Upon my first bite, I tasted only cheese and wondered where the pork was. So I lifted the top tortilla to see where the pork was, and my friend, perturbed by my action, gives me the strangest look that I can't help but burst out laughing, "I'm looking for the pork. It's a pork quesadilla right?!" The sour cream and olive combination didn't exactly work for me - both together, I found, overpowered the flavor of the quesadilla. Unfortunately, the guacamole didn't seem fresh to me - it was perfectly smooth with specks of tomato and contained no avocado chunks...hmm... Was it store-bought? Nevertheless, the fish and chips saved the day. Thank goodness! They were perfectly crispy and crunchy. I was about to help myself to some side salad when my friend takes a huge dollop of tartar sauce and starts smothering the piece of beer battered fish served on my plate. Thanks! Or as he said, "Tartar sauce is evil." More thanks! :) To wrap it up, I believe we had a pleasant dining experience, and look forward to trying other dishes!

It's a the same one as the one on the Kowloon side, newly opened here at Soho East…read more Disclaimer: I haven't tried their pork knuckles or sausages just yet. All we ordered were the Trio of Sliders mini burgers, and a mac & cheese. The decor was certainly very nice, and like most restaurants in Soho East, it got this semi-open door setting, and we were lucky to get the table just next to the street. Breeze wind and strong enough A/C, so definitely not a bad choice. Apart from the food, I also tried to order a craft beer (yes, you see how I'm so into craft beer just from the last few reviews...). I picked Dirty Bastard, a rather memorable name that I wouldn't forget. Ooops, I picked the only one craft beers (out of four) that has run out, and the staff proceeded to give me another menu that with the updated list. The staff insisted that the Anchor Porter was the same as Dirty Bastard as they were both dark beer. Ummm... Stout is technically dark too, if you don't really know your beers. Anyway, Porter was not bad, but its 5.6% ABV was definitely not as strong as Dirty Bastard's 8.5%. The Trio of Sliders certainly rescued the star I was about to deduct from them. Okay pulled pork burger, amazing beef + bacon + cheese burger and excellent pork belly burger. That's solid 2.5/3 good. Mac & cheese was just a mac & cheese. I don't remember the last mac & cheese that's made bad, so it's a pretty save choice on my side.

I've also tried their tong yuen, the black seasame glutenous rice balls. I'm no expert on that, but tastes pretty good to me!

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.

The paper bowls each item is served in is aesthetic as it gets. There are more than a handful of tables at this location of Tei Mou Koon, which also has enough AC on a hot HK day so that you can enjoy these desserts hot or cold. However, it is hidden more towards the back of Lucky Plaza, making it a bit tough to find. We enjoyed their hot black sesame soup (芝麻糊) and Bubur Cha Cha (摩摩喳喳). The black sesame was rich, velvety, and smooth. The cha cha was perfectly chunky and overall a well balanced mixture of goods. Service was attentive and efficient. Pay by cash, credit, digital payment, or Octopus. They don't have a 10% service charge either.
