Honestly, stepping into this place felt like I got teleported straight back to Hong Kong. The cheung fun (steamed rice noodle rolls), siu mai (pork and shrimp dumplings), egg waffles (crispy-on-the-outside, soft-inside HK street snack), and Hong Kong-style milk tea (strong black tea with evaporated milk) — all spot on. Like seriously, if you closed your eyes and took a bite, you’d think you were sitting in a local cha chaan teng back in Mong Kok.
The vibe is super cozy — the yellow tones inside make it feel really warm and welcoming. One thing that stood out was the bookshelf full of interesting reads, including some books you probably wouldn’t even find in Hong Kong anymore.
The owners are a super sweet couple from Hong Kong who’ve been living here for years. They’re really friendly and full of stories — you can tell they’ve poured their heart into the place. It honestly feels more like a little cultural hangout than just a regular restaurant.
Also, downstairs there’s a small shop connected to the restaurant that sells a lovely selection of lifestyle products from Japan — all personally and thoughtfully curated by the Hong Kong lady who runs the place. You can tell everything’s chosen with care. I picked up a multi-purpose lip balm there and it’s honestly amazing — super handy and really good quality.
Can’t recommend this place enough. If you miss Hong Kong, or just wanna try something really authentic (plus discover some beautiful Japanese finds), definitely...
