With my Malaysian food expert, wanting to try something close to authentic laksa in HK. Smallish restaurant, facing off against malaymama competition right across the street. Soup noodles $60-80 a bowl.To save you reading down, in summary its ok for a middling laksa, but the other food is horrible and service terrible, so we would never go back.Ordered laksa, mee siam and har mien in order to try a range of things.

Ordered laksa, mee siam and har mien in order to try a range of things. The laksa soup was good flavour, but small frozen prawns used in it really detract, and noodles a bit hard. Prefer to have a mixture of vermicelli amd mee, my fault though, i should have asked.
Now for the other food : shockingly bad! Har mien had one half of a frozen prawn in it, soup the colour and taste of old washing up water. More pork than prawn. Only taste of meat, white pepper (which should not be in there). No prawn taste. If they call it dirty water pork mien, would more accurate. We hardly touch it, send it back. Inedible. Mee siam ok but not great, over sour, again the prawn issue. Worst of all, the waiter insist to charge us for an inedible bowl of dirty washing up water we had sent back and complained about so much, and no apology or any effort to compensate. Terrible service. I'm not price sensitive, just good food sensitive.
Drinks came late, after we were halfway through the food. All the glasses and bowls were messy, spilt, not the cleanest place to eat honestly, hygiene of concern.
My Malaysian food expert had tried the one in Elements last week, which was cleaner, better. And the laksa there used fresh, large prawns, brilliant. Go there. We guess they are focussing on the new elements store, maybe the chef move there too? In which case just shut this one down.
