A Bay Area Hong Kong-Style Cafe Loved for Over a Decade 💫
When it comes to Hong Kong-style cafes in the Bay, Shooting Star Cafe has always been my favorite ❤️. This long-running spot has never dropped in quality, prices are still friendly, and the space stays bright and cozy—nostalgia and flavor in one place. 💜 Cantonese Comfort Surprise They actually had pork liver with goji leaves—a classic Guangzhou home-style dish rarely found outside. 💜 Baked Rice Classics Seafood Baked Rice in White Sauce: Loaded with seafood, rice soaked in rich sauce Pork Chop Rice Set: Tender, juicy pork chop with slow-brewed soup + HK milk tea—lunch special satisfaction 💜 Street-Style Bites Bowl of Shark Fin Soup (imitation): Warm and comforting, perfect for late night Beef Brisket Rice Noodle Rolls: Fall-apart beef brisket, soft rice rolls—authentic HK taste 💜 Must-Try Desserts Mango Coconut Black Glutinous Rice: Lightly sweet, soft and sticky, Southeast Asian vibes Egg Waffles with Ice Cream: Crispy outside, fluffy inside + creamy ice cream—hot & cold bliss 💜 Zodiac Drinks Beyond classic milk tea and lemon tea, they have a photogenic 12 Zodiac drink series—so many choices! 🌟 Convenient Hours Opens at 7 AM for breakfast, last call before midnight. Great for early tea or late supper. Packed with young crowds at night—rare Bay Area late-night vibe. 🅿️ Located in Oakland Chinatown, street parking is usually easy at night, plus a parking lot across the street. 📍 Shooting Star Cafe 1022 Webster St, Oakland #BayAreaEats #HongKongCafe #LateNightEats #OaklandFood #ShootingStarCafe #BakedRice #HKCafeTour #SFfood #LifeInUSA
