Lok Tin Cafe — Restaurant in Hong Kong

one of my favourite chain cha chaan tengs. a short walk from tst station. this place is very similar to red city café in wan chai: it's big, clean, and easy to order from. their breakfast set menus are great, and their baked goods are exceptional. even just their plain toast with PBJ is worth having. i strongly recommend getting their pineapple bun with butter.

we also tried their liu sha french toast, which was extemely well made (delicious bread, very crispy), but was much too light on the filling (the liu sha didn't ooze out when cut into, you can see it looks a bit empty and sad in the photos). we had to order some golden syrup to make it edible (for an extra $5). this would have been a 10/10 liu sha french toast if it was just...

At first, I didn't expect much based on the reviews. But in this place you will find very simple, local and delicious food. Their pastry is something incredible. Coffee was surprisingly ok. And the main dish we ordered - a local take on an all-day breakfast - was good. The portion was huge - perfect if you're hungry. If I have chance, I'd order something more traditional next time.

Staff is running around busy, I wouldn't expect a perfect service - but it's perfectly fine. You will be sitted in sort of a booth, and you won't really see other customers - it's nicely private this way.

They do not accept either card payments, nor Octopus card payments. Cash only.

Price is nice and reasonable, not...

Came here twice in a week, once for lunch and then again for breakfast! I've also tried a few other cha chan ting, and the BBQ bolo ban here has got to be the best of them all. The egg tart was also really good here! (I would say bbq bolo bun and egg tart are a must have here!)

The service was pretty good too, not too hurried or impatient with tourists. They also have an English menu which really helps!

The wide menu is also very kids friendly, with many great range of other buns to choose from. All in all, extremely satisfying...
