This is the best roast pork bun I've ever had - hands down. Otherwise, why are you here? It's what got them their Michelin star. I got the ha gow, ha cheurng (rice noodle wrap with shrimp), fried noodles. The waiter said don't bother with their short ribs or radish cake. Price: pennies. For 5 dishes it was 10 USD. Cheap af. Ambiance: it's like eating on the subway train when the floor is wet. Do not go to the bathroom unless it's #1. You've been warned. Bring your own napkins. Service: slam dunk service - all business. In and out in under 20 min. Wham bam thank you ma'am

This chain definitely earned their Michelin Star. It was affordable and delicious. My friends and I…read morecame here and basically ordered their whole menu. I have nothing bad to say about all the items that we had. Each one of us paid about 80 HKD and was able to try 13 different items. The quality of everything was top notch and comparable to bougie dimsum in America where each dish would be $5-$7 USD. The item that stood out to me was the bbq pork bun. The breading was soft, bbq pork was tender and full of flavor and the top was sweet. Overall I thought that the flavors and texture were spot on and made this a wonderful plate. Can't wait for Tim Ho Wan to come to America. Hopefully they retain their pricing as well.

We came over the weekend for dinner. There were lots of people waiting. But since it was just the…read moretwo of us, we were seated fairly quickly (under 10 minutes). As soon as you sit down, that's when your 90 minutes start. We got the Shrimp Tomato Soup Base for our pot. Honestly, it didn't taste too shrimp-y. Nonetheless the soup was flavorful. You start off with a few trays of meat and once you're done, you can order more. You are given a medium size bowl (one for each in your party) and you self serve additional items you want to add to you pot. They have a spread of various items, from fish balls to vegetables to noodles. There is even a section where you can make your own condiments. Aside from the main meal, there is unlimited drinks and dessert. Not only do they have soft drinks, you can also get juice and booze. There is also ice cream and a toppings bar. When your 90 minutes is coming to an end, the waiter will drop the check at your table. And yes they accept credit card.

Nabe One is probably one of the best places in TST to get affordable, delicious Japanese Shabu…read moreShabu. We were afraid that without booking a reservation, the queue would take forever until it was time for us (like dim sum). However, we were wrong. Because of the sub-strict 90 minutes "all-you-can-eat" limit, the wait wasn't too bad. While waiting, we were given the menu to select the soup bases and slice of beef. My friend and I went with the miso and scallop soup bases, which were excellent choices that fulfilled the definition of a balanced meal! For the beef, we ordered the American lean beef since we were craving for a taste of home. Our number is called and we head upstairs to our seats. Immediately, we were greeted by our server and had the hot pot placed on the hot surface. We then went out to the aisle and filled our plates with all the meatballs, veggies, and meats that we could find. The main sauce is a soy-sauce based that can be customized with chilli oil or paste. There was also delicious fruit juices and even beer in the fridge for all to take. The key to this type of a-y-e dining is to pace yourself and not be in a hurry. 90 minutes is actually a long time, so continue to eat at a constant pace and avoid getting full easily with the tasty juices. After you are finished, please visit the frozen yogurt and spend at least 15 minutes. The offerings of mango, vanilla, and strawberry yogurts is amazing. It sounds plain, but when you add boba, mango slices, and raisins, it truly hits the spot! Overall, I am pleased by my experience at Nabe One and it is the best dining experience that I have had in TST.

Imo it's their food is even better than Lan Fong Yuen and there's no line at all. They serve simple rice, noodles and congee dishes. We came here because we needed congee for our baby daughter. And we also ordered wonton noodles and beef brisket noodles, which were absolutely delicious. The broth was flavorful but not salty. And I haven't had this kind of noodles in a while which to me was very comforting. And the noodles costs only hkd 58 each (about 6 usd, what?!). The service was great. Staff was friendly. It wasn't packed so we could take our time to enjoy our lunch. I also like the "old hk" decor. There are quite a few restaurants in Heath Hong Kong but I'd recommend not to miss Six's Noodles :)

Excellent service and fantastic food…read more For soup bases, we tried the tomato soup and spicy hotpot soup. For sauce, we paid for the make-you-own-sauce station and I made a mixture with garlic, XO sauce, and soy sauce. You can't go wrong with adding whatever you like into a sauce! For meats and veggies, we tried several types of beef, mutton, fish balls, fish, beancurd, and Chinese veggies. You can order whatever you want on their tablet. We also got the all-you-can-drink tea option with their delicious lemon tea. The waitress was extremely attentive and even gave us a free fried man tou dessert that came with condensed milk for dipping. The mantous had a crispy exterior and soft, warm interior. I couldn't help but indulge. Because we opted for the better quality meats, our total was about $100 USD. A more expensive meal but extremely satisfying and it was money wellspent.

Excellent service!…read more The hand-pulled noodles were the reason why we came to this restaurant; and it did not disappoint! We had a table-side pull of the noodles and it was very entertaining. There is a variety of different cuts/quality of meats that vary in price; so it is easy to stick to your price point if you want. The only thing that would be a bit more expensive; is that if you wanted extra sauces or certain sides; they do charge you per person for those things. I found that with the tomato soup base; there was no need for any extra sauces though. The soup base was flavourful and matched well with all the ingredients. It is important to note that this place is not AYCE; but a-la-carte ordering. We were still quite full nonetheless. All in all; was a great experience and the service is really above and beyond.

They are located on the second floor. There is a main dining room and private rooms you can dine in. We dined in a private room for more privacy both visits. The service was friendly but they did forget one menu item we ordered during our lunch visit. Service was a little slow during our dinner visit but they were fully packed. You order by marking the items on the menu that you want for lunch and can order directly with the server for dinner. They have dimsum and many other Chinese dishes available. There is a fish tank with lots of fresh seafood. It was very fresh and we enjoyed it. Overall, the food is good and I was surprised how busy they were for a second floor restaurant. One great thing about this restaurant is that they accept credit cards. It's near a lot of feet washing establishments so you can check them out after a good meal. It's a thing in Hong Kong apparently but quite relaxing after a good meal.

However, you get a…read moreglimpse of all the fresh seafood you can eat when you enter the first floor with their huge live seafood tank. So, you know that seafood is going to be stellar. I can't lie and say the service is awesome. In fact, if you get the wrong waiter, the service can be downright horrible. The service staff can spot a foreigner right away. But, try to be calm and cool, and know what you are ordering. I would suggest bringing a local Hong Kong friend here, if you have one, to help you order the right food. Here's a breakdown of all the dishes that we tried here: Roast pork - this was ok. The skin wasn't crispy enough, in my opinion. The the meat was pretty lean and tough. The flavor was there, though. Razor clams - Amazeballs. Although, I wish they'd give us more than 4 clams. Sweet seafood taste and a sauce to die for. Nothing was left on the plate. Lol. Roast goose - This was good. Fragrant and oily meat, if you like that kind of meat. I would recommend ordering Roast pigeon - this was absolutely delicious. Tastes like duck, but less oily and more chewy. Great flavor. I ate so many pieces. Steamed fish - wonderful clean flavor. Very fresh. The fish meat was bouncy and moist. Just like the razor clam sauce, the fish sauce was plate licking good. Be careful that you don't order too big of a fish. We made this mistake once and had a hard time eating all of it. Steamed abalone - this was kind of meh. The abalone just takes in the flavor of whatever it's flavored with. Don't get me wrong, it was a good flavor. But, I didn't enjoy the rubbery like texture. I probably won't order this again. Overall, I really like the food here. Really not a fan of the service or the crazy busyness of this restaurant. I'll still come back when I visit Hong Kong again

The rice roll is thin and the crispy shrimp added a nice contrast. Also, try the Radish Cakes serve with chili sauce and Chicken Feet. The opening hours for this place are from 730AM-11PM.

Food here can be described as traditional Cantonese with an added flare of updated interpretations, there are a few dishes the restaurant are famous for e.g. Crispy Skinned Chicken marinated in Supreme Soy Sauce, Seasonal Double Boiled Soup, Roast Pork Belly with Cracklings etc. On this latest occasion, I tried a few more common dishes, and what stands out the most are: Beef Brisket, Tendon & Potatoes in Curry Sauce, Braised Goose Web with Shiitake Mushrooms & Tofu Skin. Love the curry sauce as it goes perfectly with plain steamed rice, even the potatoes were done well in absorbing the curry. If you like Morning Glory, they do a very good job with the seasoning and I usually request the Chef to add extra Thai Chilli to kick it up a few notches! Service has always been attentive, but I also noticed the high turn over rate as the familiar faces from the last few years are not to be found, parking can be redeemed, just notify the server at end of your meal!

Depending on what you order, be prepared to spend the equivalent of about USD30 or more per person. What sets Lei Garden apart from the rest of all the dim sum restaurants is not just the deliciousness of their food, but their refinedness and creativity. Shredded Yam Egg Rolls: That's exactly where their creativity and sophistication come in. The filling tasted like a puree of yam mixed with minced pork and was almost heavenly. These are hands down the best egg rolls that I've ever had! Honey BBQ Spare Ribs: This is one of their specialties and I highly recommend that you order this dish. The meat was so tender that they fell off the bones. The honey BBQ flavor was so delicious that I needed to borrow a phrase from KFC that "it's finger licking good!" (Yes, forget about the chopsticks and eat with your fingers!) Fried Chicken Wings: The skin was perfectly crispy and the inside was moist and juicy. This is another dish that requires you to eat with your fingers and lick them to completely enjoy the experience. Har Gow: Thin, translucent, and slightly chewy skins were graced with a shrimp filling that was bouncy in texture and rich in natural flavor. Bean Curb Rolls in Broth: The fish broth was richly flavored, and not only did it make the bean curb rolls more enjoyable, it was so tasty that we finished every drop of the broth, treating it just like a soup dish. Rice Wrapped in Lotus Leaf: Tasty and not overly oily (Yes!) fried rice was generously mixed with Chinese sausage, minced pork, salty egg yolk, among many other goodies. It was wrapped in a lotus leaf and steamed to perfection that the aroma of lotus filled the air and stimulated the palate. This is another one of their specialties that I highly recommend. Siu Mai: They were tiny but were packed with a concentrated richness that was enhanced by the flavors of black mushrooms. Small, bite size, refined, and delicate - They were exactly what dim sum should be like! Beef Balls: Quality speaks here. There was not even a hint of soda powder or tenderizer. Again, the serving size was tiny but the flavor was supreme. And that perfectly matches the city where the value of food is generally not measured by its size, but by its quality.
