As D is a big fan of Beef Tripes & Offal, he made a point to drive here and tried it out!! Place is a typical tiny noodle shop, its has about 4 tables and you can see your noodles being made right in front of you, they do have a combo where you order a bowl of noodles and your drink will be HK$10.00! (U$1.00) I ordered the Fish Ball Noodles, great texture and flavour for both the noodles & the Fish Ball... Beef Tripe Noodles that D ordered were also very good with a rich beef broth, the noodles were al dente and all the different cuts of Beef Offal were tender and properly spiced! During weekends the place is very busy and also very hard to find parking, luckily we were able to find a Paid Public Parking nearby as we saw Police Officers were busy issuing parking tickets right in front of the shop!!

If you go during the weekdays it's better because you can almost secure a table and enjoy the good local food. Wanton noodles, especially good ones, are not easy to find these days. My family has been there many times and this little noodle place never disappoints us. I recommend this place to the locals, and those who're touring Hong Kong but wanna get a taste of real Hong Kong food. It brings me back to the 80s of Hong Kong when I was a kid, and could enjoy this kind of cheap local food around the corner. Awesome noodles and lots of healthy dishes to choose from.

Fair warning, if you are planning to eat seafood, expect you pay a pretty penny. The nice thing…read moreabout here is that you get to pick your own seafood. My recommendations: lobster noodles (yee meen) with cheese, razor clams with vermicelli/garlic and geoduck sashimi. We came in a big party so we were able to order 6 different types of seafood. Of the 6, everything was really good but the top 3 were phenomenal. The lobster noodles with cheese was my favorite. You can't find this in America and my friend specifically chose this restaurant for this dish. The cheese that they used went perfectly with the lobster and noodles. Almost made the noodles like a carbonara. I have never had razor clams before but it's just a long clam. The meat was soft and chewy. Who doesn't like fresh garlic and noodles? The sauce that was on the clam and noodles was delicious. Lastly the geoduck was used for sashimi and soup. The geoduck was sliced thinly and dipped with wasabi soy sauce. It was super fresh and you can't just stop at once piece. The soup that was prepared with the head had vegetables and tofu. It was rich and really sweet. The one thing I wanted to try in Asia was the mantis shrimp. They may look big, but it hardly has any meat. The flavor was spot on though. Service was good and they came around to change our plates frequently. Our bill was 6444 HKD for 7 dishes.

This restaurant has all live fresh seafood that you can pick any seafood and quantity you want,…read moresome of seafood is by piece or by weight. And then there is a charge to have all seafood cooked to whatever seasoning. We ordered mantis shrimp, it was deep fried there isnt much meat, scallops were steamed with rice vermicelli noodle and soy sauce, scallops were over cooked, and crab was deep fried with fried galic and green onions spicy. Cooked just right, and a fresh live fish was steam chinese style with scallions and soy sauce, fish steamed perfectly. They have indoor and outdoor seating. There is no pricing for the seafood than has to be weight, and there is a fee to cook each seafood item that choose, it will add up bill quickly. After receiving bill we were charged for tea and anything extra you requested. If you need to splurge once when in Hong Kong it is ok, pricing will be on the high end. They also have on far left a restaurant with same name. And on right is another restaurant that has same fresh live seafood restaurant. So chose wisely.

Truly one of the better seafood restaurants in Sai Kung. But, be warned, it is very expensive…read more The first thing to know is that Loaf On is not one of those touristy spots on the water. There isn't a pretty view of the sea. Instead, you will walk up two flights of very narrow stairs to a pleasant dining area and excellent service. The walls are decorated with their Michelin one star awards over the years, which is an accomplishment. My wife and I came for lunch. The set price lunches have a lot of food, but cost just under $3000 for two. I didn't need a banquet. So, I skipped that. Instead, we shared fried tofu as an appetizer. It was hot, creamy and light. Definitely the right choice. Then we shared grouper prepared two ways as the second course. A wise decision. It was delicious, had contrast, and emphasized the fresh fish flavor. That cost $880, but well worth it. Much better than the seafood places nearby.

The food is cooked well, nothing fancy but like…read morewhat a good homecook can do - however it costs way more even compared to neighboring restaurants. I'm guessing because we're paying for the Michelin Star, and the cleaner, inside, tableclothed setting. I can attest they also have clean washrooms! I have to dock a star though because of all the nickel and diming they do even after charging more for their dishes (e.g. higher tea charge at HKD $18/pp but at least they exempted my toddler, another HKD $10 for providing 2 wet naps, for market priced dishes they charge not by dish for prep but by number of people at the table, etc). The server also gave my mom some attitude when she asked to see the Mantis Shrimp we ordered live before cooking (which is usual for Chinese restaurants to check the freshness and size), and said bluntly that they're already cooking it. We came to try how they do their Mantis Shrimp so that was the star of our lunch. We had it prepped fried with garlic, pepper, salt. My hubby liked the natural sweetness in the meat. I found it just OK. We ordered the Fried Tofu with Chili and Garlic that others seem to enjoy, again hubby liked it, I found it OK. It came on a pile of orange rice crisps that had no flavor and added nothing to the dish. Our last dish was the Braised Pork Belly with Pickled Vegetables which was pretty good with ample meat that was very filling. My favorite of the 3 dishes. For a restaurant located on Sai Kung's Seafood Street, its also interesting that they're famous for their Crispy Skin Chicken, which you have to reserve in advance or you're out of luck if you try to order it there. We did not reserve ahead... :/ When looking for the restaurant, note that they are on a street not overlooking the waters and have no fishtank display outside to show you their fresh produce like their neighbors. So keep an eye out for their signage. Their dining area is up a flight of narrow stairs but I think they might have a table or 2 on the street level though I didn't get to see since they directed us upstairs though an outside entrance. Service wise, at least they carried our stroller up for us.

~*~*~* 1600th review!! *~*~*~…read more Small, local shop with the typical diner atmosphere where you'd sit with other people when space is tight. It's a full house during lunch on a weekday, so I can only imagine what the weekend brings. Service is also typical where you have to call someone to make an order, and pay at the counter up front. They do take different kinds of payment apart from just cash. The thing to get here is the char siu and egg over rice. 80% of the folks here ordered this same thing. The egg is softly cooked, and it has some sweet soy sauce as well, making it an extra yummy dish. Many folks also opt to add chili oil to it, but if you also ordered the signature rice noodles, which is quite spicy, then you won't need to. The signature rice noodles has tons of bean sprouts and quite a bit of dried shrimp, which is nice considering you're at a fishing harbour! The Hong Kong milk tea is quite good as well. Just a dash of sugar and it's perfect. The shop is a bit more hidden than the myriads of cafes and seafood restaurants lining the shoreline. I do recommend coming by for comfort food, especially after a hike or water activities. As a bonus, there's a cute little store cat that is very friendly!

Half the customers in this packed joint are eating it. I personally had the fish belly on corn and rice. It is a simple dish that is cooked in a manner I havent tasted before. The rice is drenched in this sauce kinda like cream of corn soup with smooth textured eggs. It is not really fish belly but just plain fish cubes fried in batter. Service is quick and the joint is very spartan. The real surprise is the price. Including my hot lemon drink, total paid was only 32 HKD. Thats why I gave it 4 stars even though the food is only 3 stars. A definite recommed for a bit of local color off the beaten tourist path. The retaurant is in a maze of shops and homes. Use GPS or you will get lost in this labyrinth. It is really fun to explore this labyrinth after your meal.

The space is very small inside and they only take cash. I wouldn't recommend dining with more than 3 people because of the super tight space. Best to come solo or with just a friend. I found their shrimp wontons decently fresh but not extremely memorable. The noodles weren't as springy as I'd like. The soup did not have the depth I was looking for. While it was comforting and soul warming, this place is not in my top ranking for flavor not consistency. Service was quick and efficient. Just not a very memorable place and overhyped in my opinion.
