Long Shing Café is located just a few steps from Mong Kok MTR station — incredibly convenient and easy to find. The space is surprisingly spacious for the area, with comfortable seating and fast service. Even during busy dinner hours, the wait time is minimal.
Black Pepper Pan-Fried Ox Tongue with Sausages – $69 This set comes with four thick slices of ox tongue, sausages, and a generous side of potatoes. Instead of standard fries, the café serves American-style baked potato wedges, which are soft on the inside with a crisp edge. Diners can also swap the potatoes for pasta or rice. For the price, it’s a solid deal for a full steakhouse-style dinner.
Hojicha Chocolate Mochi Bun – $12 Known for their fresh-baked goods, the café offers a rotating selection of buns, and this one stands out. Served warm, the bun is aromatic and soft, filled with a gooey hojicha-infused chocolate center. The filling is generous — it oozes out with the first bite — and reveals chewy mochi tucked inside. It’s a rich, comforting snack that’s perfect fresh out of the oven.
Signature Crispy Pineapple Bun – $9 After trying the QQ bun, the freshly baked pineapple buns were impossible to resist. One was taken to-go as soon as it came out of the oven, promising that signature contrast of a crunchy golden crust and...

Don't expect them to explain things to you. Just point/pick and away you go.
Coupled to the place is the bakery that knocks out AMAZING pineapple buns and other HK baked goods. Note that pineapple buns are named after their looks and do NOT contain pineapple. Place only accepts cash and NOT even Octopus tap payment. Line up for takeout for the bakery is frequent especially on weekdays when workers swing by for a quick bite on the go. Literally right on the doorsteps of the Mongkok surface exit. Recommended for a...
Read moreMy meal was ok. The service was the worst. Immediately after attempting to sit at the table we were told to go too by the staff, a server comes and yells at us to move to another table. Then, they completely forgot about my girlfriend’s food. My food arrived in 10 minutes but my girlfriend was still waiting and after 30 minutes we asked the staff where the food was. They argued with us before reluctantly going to the kitchen before coming back to the table and saying nothing. Then, after another 30 minutes and still no food we just decided to cancel the item, which the server was very reluctant and tried to argue again and yelled at my girlfriend. Overall, the worst restaurant experience we’ve ever...
