The ambience was like a retro diner, with unique CD art on the walls, diner-like stools, and photos of guests enjoying their meal at Burger Joy. I wasn't feeling a burger, so I ordered some truffle fries and wings. I was so impressed at the amount of truffle they sprinkle on the fries and the flavor of the wings. SO hot and fresh which made the meal so delicious. I went with Cajun seasoning and the exterior was lightly crispy and coated with the powder. Fantastic flavor! As a Westerner, I could rely on Burger Joy for that classic American style dining. They have late hours and close at 2:30AM! Glad my friend and I discovered this spot as we have been out so late and nothing but convenient stores were open in Wan Chai.

It was and still is such a hard thing to find in HK, which seems strange given the popularity of burgers and the huge expat population. Now that several big time fast food chains (#1) have opened up, Burger Joys and their pricey burgers may seem somewhat pedestrian. Burger Joys is still fairly unconventional from most of the other burger spots, which includes serving full on booze (even cocktails!) and remaining open for 24 hours a day. The latter is mainly for location's sake, Wanchai and it's red light district vibe tends to spurn a lot of expat visits; many of whom are less likely to look for a HK Cafe over the idea of a burger and fries. The burgers themselves evoke memories of In N Out by presentation alone, sans taste and price. That said, the burgers are good. I'm not sure if the signature double cheeseburger warrants the $139HKD price tag, but it's still tasty. Throw in a shake and some fries (better with truffle!), the meal gets closer to 200HKD+ with the service charge. Thank goodness they accept credit cards. The service has been a mix of great and subpar. Some days when the gentleman from Vancouver is working, the service is professional, fun, and efficient. Some other days / hours, it's a crapshoot of casual and lackluster staff. The mileage definitely varies. I suppose the adage applies: come for the food and nothing else.

Guess it's to be expected. The baked pork chop with rice & the chicken curry were both good. They're my go-to dishes when I eat here. The Hong Kong style milk tea is also good -- compared to regular milk teas that you can get in the US (Taiwanese style), the tea flavor is a lot stronger.

We shared the chicken curry and the baked pork chop with tomato sauce and rice. I was happy with both dishes. The curry was medium spicy so I couldn't eat a ton of it, but I sure did want to because it was plenty tasty. The tomato sauce on the baked pork chop was also delicious & kept me going back for more bites even when I was pretty full. Overall, I would recommend Cafe de Coral for a quick fast food meal if you're in the mood for HK style fast food.

Very casual place a lot of foot traffic in and out of this place since it's located by a shopping center. They have a lot of variety, so definitely a place to come back and try other cheap and affordable dishes, especially for those on a budget. Beware of lunch time, they do run out of the most popular dishes, which are also the more affordable ones. There's also plenty of room to sit and eat in this places and all of the employees were really friendly. The only this that was out of place was that there was no restroom, it was out of service. However, I'm not going to dock them any stars like some weirdos do on yelp for something that could have been out of their control. Just saying. Over good chill and cheap eats. Try it! Always go for the recommendations.

At Fairwood, you pay, wait for food to be ready, and find seats yourself. The hardest part about this place is finding a table to sit at. It was super busy when we came here and it was a week day too. The staff who works there help people get a table, so that made it easier. In terms of the food, the cha shu was amazing and the portion size was generous. The milk tea was just okay - same standard as Boston, but in terms of HK standards, it was mediocre. At restaurants like this, I do feel somewhat pressured to eat faster because there are always people waiting to get seated. If you are looking for a place to eat and chill, this probably isn't the best place for you. However, if you are looking for a quick, delicious meal, I highly recommend this! They have so many other options available here too so you cannot go wrong :)

I'd already sampled their newest offering a couple of days before in Ma On Shan. When I first got to this location in Aberdeen, I was a little disappointed that a sign said that the machine was out of order. Thank goodness they'd fixed it by the time I got back in the afternoon. I don't know how healthy this stuff is, but it has pretty authentic matcha flavor; the chocolate and chopped nuts stopping just completes the flavor profile.

The Hong Kong style baked pork chop. Let me tell you about my new favorite dish, son. You have a…read morepork cutlet. You put that on top of some egg fried rice with just the right amount of saltiness and a light broth flavor. You smother the whole thing with a slightly tangy, slightly sweet tomato sauce that's mixed with mushrooms and tomato chunks. You fill out your last will and testament because there is no longer a good reason to live. I'm not joking; I'll upload the will I wrote out on an MX napkin after my lawyer gives me the go-ahead. Okay maybe I'm being just a little hyperbolic, but I really am in a deep nearly religious love for the baked pork chop at the moment. Maxim's MX is a chain of HK "chaan tengs" which we've always called HK cafes here in SoCal. One hallmark of the HK cafe is that they usually feature menus with way more stuff than can be reasonably made well. They also offer a mix of traditional Chinese dishes like noodles, wonton soups, and fried rice, while also serving western stuff like sandwiches, steaks and spaghetti. (Aside: I love HK-style sandwiches as they tend to throw an egg into all of them by default. If you don't love egg please unfriend me to avoid potential violence.) The food tends to come out as a set menu with a drink included. Prices are generally cheap, especially for the amount of food you're getting. There is no "magic" to MX. It's not owned by a cute elderly woman and her husband who get up in the wee hours of the morning to hand chop vegetables and start cooking the soup that will feed hundreds of smiling customers that day. It's owned and run by a restaurant corporation. The lady taking my order at the front was equal parts curt and bored. She also gave me a look of suspicion when I ordered an extra milk tea, as if I was pulling one over on her and she was trying to figure out how. This leads me to believe that there is possibly an amazing baked pork chop someplace else in HK. Possibly in some kind of shrine or at the foot of a burning bush. But until I find it I'll be at MX. Extra credit tip: Order your food off the tv screen menus. Each screen shows a different type of food: Chinese, western, other, etc. Pay by Octopus card b/c you're an HK local and not some clueless tourist, then take the ticket they give you over to the kitchen area where someone will take it from you and order up your food. While they're loading up your tray, scope out an open seat near someone cute. Don't let them see you weep when you eat the magic pork chop as such public emotion is generally frowned upon. Extra credit tip #2: You get 30 mins of free wifi using the code on your receipt.

Not a big fan of those) I ordered a American cheeseburger lunch set, with came with a drink- I ordered an Arnold Palmer which they mixed in house, and a side of crinkle cut fries (again, not a huge fan). The Arnold Palmer was decent- nice big glass, with a generous helping of lemon juice, and a tea strong enough to not be overpowered by the lemon. The fries are well seasoned, and crunchy, but as with crinkle cut fries, the texture can vary quite a bit between French fry. The cheeseburger was great! They used a bold, but fragrant thousand island dressing as it's main sauce, with plenty of onions, and pickles. The patty itself was tender and moist, and the burger managed to actually be somewhat smoky! Considering how I only paid HK$99 for this meal in Central, not a bad deal. Might come back and try their shakes the next time around.
