This is probably the best sushi we ever had in Hong Kong. Uogasi is a new restaurant and is tucked…read moreaway in a small alley and will take a bit of work to find (it is right across from Frantzen's Kitchen). It is a small place with a single sushi chef --- the legendary Kelly Chan. Kelly is the only female sushi chef in Hong Kong. You would have never guessed Kelly has been cutting up beautiful pieces of sashimi for over 20 years. And man oh man, some real girl sushi power here. We started with a delicious Kyoto Tofu skin. It is super silky. Perfect and beautifully cut yellowtail sashimi. Soft baby squid. Sweet flounder. Some of the best clam sashimi. To clean our palate, we were served a nice bowl of steamed egg white with uni, with small pieces of mushroom and chestnut. I took a few piece of freshly hand cut ginger and ready for more sushi. For sushi, the highlight was the Japanese red snapper which was seared on the outside. Giant Hokkaido hotate, amaebi were all excellent. Then it was the toro and finally a giant stack of uni. It was truly heavenly. Uogashi is a small place. It is not pretentious. Food is not cheap and it is definitely not fast --- did I say there is only one sushi chef? If you are looking for a sushi buffet or in a hurry, you probably want to go with one of the generic hotel buffet in Hong Kong. If you want to have an intimate dinner, enjoy watching how sushi is prepared, then give this new restaurant a try. It is a hidden gem. Go there before it becomes too popular. We will definitely come back next time we visit Hong Kong.

Service: 8/10 (note: I don't think the waiters understand English , you can use Google Translate )…read more Food: 9.5/10 ( It was cooked immediately and was scrumptious ) There's a hotel nearby which takes about 20 mins to walk over there. It's a great restaurant to experience the culture of local HK food. The food came hot every time. The drinks are decent. Try the iced lemon tea, those are amazing! You can try those fried rice. The fried rice was flavoured just right. And the chicken in it was so juicy and tender. The Stone Pan served steak was great( for me, not sure for visitors from the US and abroad) You could choose two kinds of steaks from the menu and choose what sauce( best for the black pepper one )( don't expect to much on a HKD$47 steak set ) Overall, it was a great restaurant and I would like to come again soon.

I've known of the legend of Joel Robuchon for many years, being the most decorated French chef in…read morethe Michelin guide with over 30 Michelin stars to his name. Luckily for me, the L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon in Hong Kong is 3 Michelin stars and also affordable (relative to its reputation). I decided to come here for lunch with my wife as my first ever 3 Michelin star experience. I reserved a lunch reservation about a month in advance. The restaurant is very romantic and fancy. We were seated at a bar style counter, and we were escorted to our seats. The staff were all very attentive. Many were multi-lingual in Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. We ended up each ordering the lowest cost lunch tasting menu with one amuse bouche, one appetizer, one soup, one entree, and a dessert. We also each got a drink. I got a mocktail with lychee and mint which was an amazing palate cleanser between courses. The amuse bouche was a cracker with uni on top. The uni was very soft like Hokkaido uni and the cracker went well with the soft texture of the uni. We had a complimentary bread basket with a variety of different breads, all of which were amazing. I loved the croissants. For my own appetizer I chose the salmon caviar. I've never had that much caviar in my life in one sitting, it was amazing. My wife got the yellowtail carpaccio which was also amazing. The soup was a mushroom style soup with foam and a single matsutake mushroom. Soup was savory, rich, and a delight to the senses. We both got the pigeon entree. I'd never had pigeon before, my wife did but said she did not like it before. She loved this pigeon though, which was cooked slightly on the rarer to medium rare side. The pigeon was super soft. It was also wrapped with foie gras which made it decadent and rich. For dessert I chose coffee and also the coffee ice cream dessert with gelato, coffee crumble, and coffee jelly. Super rich but quite tasty. The coffee also came with a variety of small sweet snacks. Joel Robuchon truly lived up to its hype, and was well worth the cost. I will definitely come back.

L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon is definitely one of my favorite store in Hong Kong. When I used to…read morelive and work here, I remembered if I work an early shift, I will come by at 7 am to get their freshly bakes croissant. It is one of the best croissant I have around the world. I love dessert. I was a bit disappointed when they change the Earl Grey Cream Dome to the new square version. The cake layer distribution in the new cube version is just now as good as the dome version. There are more cream than cake/chocolate ball crunch ratio. It is still good, I just prefer the dome version. I also tried their green tea red bean roll cake and that is not my cup of tea. Speaking of tea, I also tried their latte. Not my cup of tea again. It is below average for a latte drink. I mean it is better than Starbucks (and way better than McDonalds), but not up to the average latte level for a coffee shop. I could hand whisk a latte better than theirs, and given they have the machine... I have higher expectations. BTW I have been there 3 times during my Hong Kong visit, and by the 3rd time, they have a promotion where basically the drink combo is like HKD$20 cheaper (roughly). Not a driving force for me to buy their drink. I will opt'ed for the drink downstairs instead. Service is great. I will return.

Shung Hing is located in the more quiet part of Sheung Wan. There are actually 3 restaurants with…read morethe same name next to each other. It's a family run business, one shop belongs to the husband, the other to his wife, the third to his mistress. Many of the staff are relatives in the first and second generation. The setting of the restaurants is simple and rustic. Time definitely stood still here, has a look from the sixties or seventies. Even the thick water glasses remind you of that. It fits this place totally, makes a cosy and relaxing atmosphere. Service is extremely good! They are attentive, knowledgeable and very friendly which you may not expect from the setting of the restaurant. Drink beer or order some Chinese wine from the limited drinks list. Or bring your own wines or whiskeys, there's no corkage. The Chiu Chow food served here is classic and simple but at it's best! The marinated meats are tender, juicy and delicious. Go for the steamed cold crab! It may be pricey but it's steamed to perfection and very fresh. Same goes for the giant conch which really is a delicacy. This size is extremely hard to find and here it's done to perfection. Imho this is the best Chiu Chow restaurant in Hong Kong.

Growing up in Hong Kong, whenever my family needed to take guests out to dinner, or when we have…read morerelatives visiting, my father would always go to this one restaurant called Cariana. It serves Chiu Chow food, also known as, Teo Chew food. This type of cuisine is ALL OVER Hong Kong. Growing up, I didn't understand why my father would always pick this restaurant. As a kid all you want to eat is McDonalds or pasta! However, I now understand. Hong Kong simply has AMAZING chiu chow food. My appreciation has grown for it tremendously. Today I'm not going to write about Cariana. I will write about Sheung Hing. It is my absolute favourite Chiu Chow Restaurant. If you you want to know how good it is, They have 3 stores side by side on the same street. If you want good, authentic Chiu Chow food, don't waste your time, go to Sheung Hing. Must Order: Pan Fried Noodles- They are fired on both sides and it is super crispy. It is cut into squares and then you pour sugar and vinegar on it. This is a Chiu Chow Staple. Cold Crab- AMAZING but pricey, but AMAZING. Duck Wing- I order this EVERY TIME. I have not yet failed to not order this. It is my fav, it is good to chew and bite on and it is a staple in Chiu Chow Food. Sharks Fin: Again, Amazing but pricey. Omelette Fried Egg- Its delicious, try it. Just do me a favour and try this restaurant and order what I suggested or ask for the most popular dishes. He/She will probably tell you all the ones I mentioned above. You will not be disappointed =)

I've been here twice, both times after coming back down from the Big Buddha and with HK weather being warm and humid, by the time you walk past here you will be craving a cold beer! There is an outdoor seating area which overlooks the courtyard between the Tung Chung MTR station and the Citigate shopping complex. We spent about 90 minutes sitting here last visit - just relaxing and soaking in the atmosphere and people watching. They had a poster for frozen slushy Asahi beer which turned out to be only frozen froth and is like eating bitter ice ... not particular tasty!

If there's a nightlife in Tung Chung, I haven't heard about it. The closest I've gotten to a…read moreroaring good time late at night in TC has been by the Tung Chung Post Office at night when everyone picks up drinks from the much-loved Club 711, or 7Eleven to all the sober consumers. Starz Wine Bar doesn't stay open till late, so it doesn't hold a candle to the cockroach infested corner of 7/11, but it is a good place to go for post-work drinks with a friendly neighbour, or for some day-beers to go with your snacks before movie time. I'm a chicken wings fiend (who isn't in Hong Kong?) and the plate of wings here are pretty good. They go down well with your Stella, Hoegaarden, Guiness, or whatever your beer of choice is. As for bigger meals, I would recommend their laksa which - although not as good as my own ha ha - is pretty satisfying with prawns, bean sprouts, a boiled egg, fishcakes and tofu. Their sandwiches and burgers aren't half bad either. Ashamed to say it but although this IS a self-proclaimed wine bar, I haven't tried their wine list. I feel like a lot of people who go here are, like me, swept away by the (usually hot, sunny) day and prefer an ice cold beer in the open air to a heavy bottle of red. At least, that's what I've noticed from my people-watching here. Starz is NOT rowdy - rather: it's a really chill place to share a few drinks with your family or friends after a hard day's work.
