They say Hong Kong is a gastronomic heaven and this I do not doubt at all- the fact is that here in…read moreHong Kong you can almost have any sort of cuisine you want and at prices that is deemed human. Comparing things here to my adopted home, London, where there is a wide range of cuisine on offer, Hong Kong does present itself as a valid case of having your cake and eating it. The reason behind this, of course, is the fact that a lot of the so-called cuisines on offer are localized. I think they do it for several reasons: a) sometimes Hong Kong taste buds might not be able to handle the true local flavor (case in point: curries), they are trying to make it go mainstream (sushi) and thirdly, just like Baap: it is our perception of what Korean food is. Baap is a Korean restaurant but they insisted on calling itself a casual dining place and for good reason; this is not the authentic experience. You do get the stone pot rice, the kimchi, the BBQ- but lets face it- this is as Korean as cha siu bao. However, that's the winning formula of it. Its good value (the sets are way too much for two people), the place is relatively tidy and everything just tastes good. You are not going to impress the Head of the UN with stuff like this but for a family dinner I think this is a pretty good place to be. The menu is quite extensive and there are a million combinations to please everyone; I have no complaints.

First time at this Korean Chicken Galbi Speciality Restaurant, one of the first authentic Chicken…read moreGalbi Restaurant from Korea. The Chain started in Korea in 1981 and has over 140 shops all over Korea now. Being one of the two in Hong Kong, we choose to go the one in Tsuen Wan Plaza. With available underground parking, this is a great location for shopping and dinning. Since it is a new experience for us, we asked for some advice from the person at the front who took our order and also took us to our table. In a nut shell, you get AYCE Korean Chicken Galbi & BBQ items! In the centre of the grill you will have a cooking area for your chicken, the perimeter of the grill is left for your grilled meats etc. They also give you a choice of rice or noodles to mix into the chicken in the centre, and if you want you can also use the centre cooking area to make a hot pot with the soup provided!! As a newbie, this is serious cooking!! Busy with the centre while you have to watch out for all the meats around the side! I have to say all the meats are of high quality and of course their chicken is well spiced and very flavourful!! With all the hot & cold drinks included, your also get a small dessert selection with soft serve as well!! Great experience and you also have fun cooking along the way!! Unlike the regular Korean BBQ we are all so familiar with, this has many other ways you can enjoy the great flavours of a Korean meal!

I've always loved Korean BBQ, and this might be the best one in all of Hong Kong! It's super…read moreconvenient, located right above the metro and iSquare Mall in TST. The beef is high quality, and the banchan are plentiful. You really can't go wrong with the food here! The clay pot bibimbap is also great. I've had Korean BBQ many times, and this is by far one of the best experiences I've had. If you want an exquisite view of the Hong Kong skyline, this is the place to go. Highly recommended--two big thumbs up!! God bless Hong Kong.

Really good siu mei (Cantonese for various roasted meats) that we happened upon. One parallel block…read moreover from the evening Temple Street night flea market. It looked more like a take out kind of place but we saw tables in the back and started to enter the shop, but the floor was so greasy, we were seriously thinking about making a 180° and skip this place. I don't know if it was the look on our faces or that we were a bit better dressed then the uncles in their white tanks with legs propped up on stools or what, but the kind lady proprietor suggested we eat at their "nicer atmosphere" dining room a few doors down. The dining room greeted us with nice A/C and floors our shoes had better grip on. The food is ordered here and they will prepare the soup, noodles, drinks, etc. but all the siu mei still comes over from the other shop. The roasted meats we're tender and tasty, no lie. I'd say even skip all those starchy fillers and go straight for the roasted proteins. The portions here are very generous and we felt a little guilty leaving some pieces uneaten. Hong Kong definitely has no shortage of siu me shops and I'm glad the tasties they offer remain classic and unchanged. Looking forward to finding new gems.
