Tip: It's a short walk from the MTR.

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 :)

After becoming obsessed with Taiwanese breakfast whilst visiting Taipei, I researched where I could get my grubby hands on it in Hong Kong. It was a fruitless and devastating search, as I came up with nothing. I decided to ask my Taiwanese colleague and lo and behold - she stumbled upon Wong Ah Ma Soya! My German friend (read: non-Chinese speaking, like me) and I plotted our field trip to the Hung Hom neighborhood of Kowloon. Once we found the small storefront, the woman working shooed us away with a 'No English!'. Oh, but that didn't stop us. I had prepared for this situation in advance by requesting Chinese translations of the menu items we enjoyed so much in Taipei. I flashed my credentials, and we were allowed to take a seat. Victorious! Though they didn't have the egg pancakes we love so much, we did get to indulge in hot, sweet soy milk and the glutinous rice rolls stuffed with sugary pastry. Both items were every bit as good as we had in Taipei! For the two of us, we paid $40 HKD. That's my kind of breakfast: cheap and outrageously delicious! I think that lady is going to be seeing a lot of us! 2016 goal: She'll have memorized our 'usual'.

We ordered two beef noodles, one with soup and one without (HK$65 each). The beef soup noodles had a very flavorful and strong broth, a bit sweet for my taste. The dry one was ok, not too memorable. I ordered Taiwanese fried chicken expecting the crunchy and crispy popcorn chicken bites, but they were chicken strips instead? Not the same... Our friends also ordered fried shrimp with salted egg sauces and it ended up costing HK$118?! A rip-off, much? Drinks service was a bit slow, while they served my friend's beer right away, they overlooked my cold soy milk, which was given to me in a takeaway cup with straw...? The 乾煸四季豆 green beans was pretty tasty, lots of the fried dried shrimp. I'll return if I'm in the Quarry Bay area and craving Taiwanese beef noodles.

So I guess that said a bit about the quality. I had the most famous beef noodles. The soup was beef soup of which it has been boiled for 16 hours and rested for three days before use to get the taste. Awesome. The noodles was chewy too. And the beef, although only 3 pieces, they were tender and had the best proportion of fat the meat. Kinda costly for this one though. $47 for a bowl of beef noodles. +$15 for an iced drink. The restaurant is small. So be expected to wait or sit outside or share table with other eaters.
