I COME HERE ALL THE TIME!!!…read more I travel to thailand quite a bit and love the foods and flavors of the country and actually cook some pretty decent Thai foods myself. If your looking for a pretty close representation of Thai flavors and food this is a great spot to sit and eat. The cook is Authentic Thai living in Hk many years and married to a HK guy and the place is a knock out for PRICE vs: AUTHENTICITY vs: Quick basic service. Not a 5 star restaurant but being a foodie i love hole in the wall fun places that are real and not ostentatious. The servers speak decent English, Cantonese and Thai and maybe a few more... Nepalese... Sitting downstairs floor level there are roughly 5 tables and upstairs where i have sat more than not... I don't care for the ip[stairs but then again i go for the food and friends i am eating with not the atmosphere. Highly recommend the Laab Gai , Tum Yum Goong , Ko Mu Yang !! is awesome, Yum neaua, and many others its all really good. and the Pla Pao is nice nice!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I was not aware that they had upstairs seating for their restaurant. This is a review for the bar area only. It was our first stop in bar hopping since we were in the Lyndhurst Street area and stopped in for a drink. SO (who is Caucasian) was totally fascinated with this place with its white tiles and wet market look. I ordered Lee's Spritz (Peach Puree/Soda/Baiju/ Prosecco) and it was bubbly and refreshing. Service was attentive since we went early. We sat at the bar with my friend and had a great time people watching and enjoying our drinks. I think this is a great place to start bar hopping since you can walk to SoHo easily from here.

I love how it's a modern type of restaurant, but they used an old school Hong Kong theme. We tried about 6 different foods and a few drinks and everything was very satisfying, minus the turnip cake swirl. That one tasted a bit off and won't be in my recommendations. The drinks there are very unique and all have some sort of Chinese twist. The ones we tried had tea in it, while some had rice wine and dates. One of the best things that we tried was the stuffed chicken wings. I forgot the name of it, but I can still remember the taste of it. Crispy skin of juicy meat with a special surprise of stick rice and half an abalone if you're lucky.

Small like everything else here but big on service portions and flavor. If yoour party is more than 4, plan ahead as it could be tough to make room. Groups of 2-4 will fit in nicley. Even if it's just you at the bar, the enviting atmosphere and worm hospitality from the staff will make you feel like you're surrounded by friends. After a few margaritas, they will be. Make you way to the top of the escalator and take a right. Xoco, a neighborhood of Mexico City, if on your left. Enjoy seating at the bar, tables and even on the front steps. Order a pitcher of margaritas along with the fresh chips with guacamole $68 and salsa while looking over the many menu options. The Chimichanga with steak for $158 was huge. I split it with Sarah S. and was full. The Carne Asada look good too but the winner at our table was the Steak Fajitas. With smiling faces, we left this cute, little and friendly place. Happy to return again. While Asia is not known for it's Mexican food, Xoco does a great job of transporting you South of the boarder. Gracias

But when in HKG, the golden arches represent a kind of refuge - good air conditioning on a hot day, with clean(er) bathrooms, and some soft serve to cool you down. 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. Wonder if they plan to bring it to America?

Contactless ordering is available. There are like 2 kiosk to put your order in and pay too. My kids and I stopped by here to have some lunch after a long walk. I am fond of Roasted Duck so I usually order it with rice and vegetable (Choi Sam). You can't go wrong with it. Tasty and filling. My oldest son ordered chicken with noodles. According to him it was okay but since he was hungry he finished it. He liked the hot milk tea though. My youngest son ordered a kiddie meal. He didn't like it all. What a waste of money because he only ate a little. He made a wrong choice. The place wasn't busy when we came. We were able to sit right away. Our order came in a timely manner as well. It is a self service. You wait for your number to be called and you get your order from the counter. *No public facility. *No street parking.

After going down the stairs there's McCafé or regular McDonald's to choose from. You can either order what you want from the many kiosks or order from a staff. On this particular occasion I went with the Matcha Red Bean Layer Cake and Soy Milk Matcha. There's a deal when you order a large drink plus a cake that the layer cake drops from $29 to $18. I like that I was able to pay with my Octopus (transportation card, like the Presto in the GTA) so that I didn't have to look for the correct amount of change. The layer cake tasted of match but it was a very subtle flavour. The red beans were a nice addition. The soy milk matcha had a heavier flavour of matcha and was quite smooth. When I sat down I noticed that there's wireless chargers on the tops of the high top tables as well as USB ports on the side. I wasn't able to connect to WiFi this time but I appreciate being able to charge my phone after taking lots of photos during the day.

Ordered their iced Hong Kong milk tea with their Angus signature collection burger and threw in their crispy chicken thigh as well. Everything was delicious. The chicken leg had nice texture, was very juicy, and actually a teeny bit spicy. The Angus burger could've been bigger but this isn't America. Hong Kong milk tea was super watered down... may have to try their yuzu soda next time. Staff were nice and even offered hand sanitizer after bringing the food over. The bathroom is located next to their McCafe bar for those who wants to wash their hands instead.

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.
