They have a bakery and a restaurant. We enjoyed the bakery. The pineapple buns and egg tart were fresh. Must of the time the staff was busy taking cake of the people lining up to take treats to go. Overall it was a good experience.

They have a large variety of brunch options and they're all very filling. Most brunch combinations come with a drink so you can also get coffee!! Their latte is pretty good. I ordered a combo that came with eggs, salmon, avocado toast and kale. My eggs and avocado toast but good but the smoked salmon was definitely my favorite part. I'm not a big fan of kale so I won't comment on how it tasted. Definitely stop by here if you're looking for a good brunch place in the area.

The desserts (Tiramisu & Belgian Rustic Almond Kiss) were good! I'm a huge dessert fan, so anything sweet is right up my alley. That being said, I'm not a huge fan of the other stuff we ordered. The best dish was the Chicken Waterzooi, which was supposedly cooked in beer reduction, but just tasted really cheesy to me - which I'm ok with (also a huge fan of cheese). The other dishes we got were just plan disaster. The prosciutto tartine which was supposed to come with buffalo mozarella came without the cheese, and with a friendly hair on it. Not great. So we sent it back and got a new one, which tasted alright, but not good enough for the price. The stars are for their exceptional customer service though - the staff were friendly and super nice. Now they just have to get their food up to speed.

After a long day in Disneyland and not having any real type of food, we got back to our area of…read moreHong Kong and was trying for dear life to find a place to eat. Well thank goodness we found this place because it was a god send. Fairly close to the exits of the East Tsim Sha Tsui station, we at first didn't know where it was but good thing TripAdvisor had some good photos to find it. We walked in and there were a good amount of folks inside enjoying their food and the bbq and roasted meats were a good sign. They did have a menu, but their English is definitely limited. We tried to get a combination BBQ plate, but certain items were not available for the combo. Eventually we did end up getting a two item BBQ plate (roasted duck and bbq pork) and wonton noodle. We got so much food for the price. It was ridiculous! The meats were succulent and rich and hit the spot. The wontons were super flavorful and you can see the shrimp in it. The egg noodles were perfectly cooked and had a nice bite to them. There was a side soup which was basically a clean broth. Would I come back again? Heck yes! In a heart beat for the prices they give. Now I just need to figure out to say "more tea" and "do you have napkins" cause in the whole time we were there we got one cup of tea and had no sight of napkins at all. Good thing I had a reserve of napkins in my bag. It also seemed to be okay to bring in food from the outside as a table next to us was eating some of the nearby street food.

I tried their pineapple bun and egg tart, and both were a bit dry and not too flavorful. My friends also tried the coffee milk tea and didn't feel it was anything special either, and they had the same thoughts regarding the egg tart and pineapple bun. The interior was large with plenty of seating, although we came on a random weekday so it was pretty empty. Just saw that this location is shuttering its doors after 80 years. Apparently, there is one location remaining in Hong Kong, in Hang Hau in Tseung Kwan O if you're looking to get your nostalgia fix!

I had extremely high hopes for this cha chaang teng and after not having enough time to visit…read moreduring our last trip, we prioritized Honolulu Coffee Shop for breakfast. The restaurant is pretty spacious and when we visited, it was pretty empty. We had no trouble getting a table for our large group of six people. Staff speak some English and they have English menus available so we had no trouble ordering. I believe they're most known for the pineapple buns and egg tarts so of course, we ordered several to share. It's also an incomplete visit to a cha chaang teng without the coffee milk tea and on top of that, I also got a side of scrambled eggs. The pineapple bun was kind of dense and dry, even with the slab of butter. The egg tarts were also dry with a plain-tasting custard. The coffee milk tea was fine but we didn't realize until visiting another cha chaang teng that hot usually means unsweetened. And the scrambled eggs were so plain...I just remember cha chaang teng scrambled eggs being super silky and creamy. This was just disappointing and I didn't need to order normal, regular-tasting scrambled eggs. They're saving grace is how cheap everything was. For that price, it just felt like we got what we paid for...lower quality food. I was very confused because I feel like I read a lot of raving reviews about this place so maybe we visited on an off day. But out of every place we tried, this was pretty low on our list.

Per usual, they serve food up real quick so be ready to eat once you order. I had the following... Breakfast Set Special - (Scrambled Eggs. Buttered toasted buns. Two Sausages. Macaroni & Tomato in tomato broth. Coffee.) The stars are definitely the eggs and the buns. Eggs are cooked perfectly with a silky and smooth texture. Buns were buttered generously and had a nice crunch to it. The macaroni was ordinary and in my opinion, pretty forgettable. Breakfast Set B - Same as above, but with satay beef noodles in place of the macaroni and sausages. I thoroughly enjoyed the satay beef, but I wish there were more pieces of beef! Again, the eggs and buns were both on point and elevates the entire breakfast set. Overall, this was an enjoyable breakfast experience. Tasty items with affordable prices. I don't think it's a place where you'll come very frequently, but once in awhile is okay!

Pineapple Bun w/ Butter - If you get the bun without the butter.. you are doing it WRONG. Get it with butter! The flaky custard top is delicious and one of the best I have had. The bread wasn't as soft as I would have liked it but was still better than 70% of those I have tried in the U.S. Satay Beef Bun - The HK version of the satay beef bun was just OK. I actually prefer the Japanese bakery version of the satay beef/curry bun. The amount of meat in the satay beef bun was not nearly enough and the bread wasn't as soft and fluffy as I would have liked it. Macaroni Soup w/ Ham - This dish was great! It tasted better than any other that I have had in the U.S. I wish I was able to compare it to others in HK but this one is definitely a safe choice! DRINKS..
