🇭🇰 Chicago|The Savory-Sweet Dream Machine at Ken Kee 🥯
Ken Kee is a classic Hong Kong-style café in Chicago’s Chinatown, standing out with its retro-Hong Kong decor that’s super photogenic! 📸✨ 🍜 DIY Noodle Soup / Rice Their ordering slip is unique — lots of customizable options I haven’t seen elsewhere. I always load mine up with extra toppings! 🇭🇰 Mong Kok Special Comes with fish balls 🍡, chicken wings, beef brisket 🥩, daikon, lettuce 🥬, and a soft-boiled egg 🥚 — perfect for those who want to try a bit of everything! Served with handmade noodles in a light, not-too-salty broth 👍🏻 🥯 Pineapple Bun with Truffle Butter Ken Kee × Chiu Quon collab ✨ A recent discovery — this sweet-and-savory combo is genius! The pineapple bun is toasted crisp on top, filled with savory truffle butter 🧈. One bite balances the rich truffle saltiness with the bun’s sweetness 🍞… though the truffle butter can be a tad salty, so extra bread helps balance it out. Overall, their noodles are decent for me — not bad enough to avoid, but not crave-worthy enough to have regularly. Still worth a try 💪🏻 Prices are reasonable: around $20–30 per person depending on how much you order. 📍 Ken Kee Restaurant 2129 S China Pl, Chicago, IL 60616 #LocalEats #ClassicFlavors #HKStyleCafe #Chicago #ChicagoLife #ChicagoEats
