Look let’s get this straight people only come here to take photos and experience the old HK style cha chaan teng-bing sutt cafe which hasn’t changed since the 50s. The food is expensive and it isn’t renowned for its great food nor service. However, you can sit here without sharing tables and being kicked out immediately after finishing your meal. Many people chill, take photos and chat away the afternoon so there is a premium to be paid to occupy their tables. We were just looking to hang out
We were just looking to hang out and have a drink after some shopping on a lazy Sunday afternoon. We thought it wouldn’t be crowded here as there are not many tourist around at this moment. We walked in the front entrance and upstairs to a spacious seating area with only a few tables occupied. The old interior transports you back in time, the old pattern wall & floor tiles, ceiling fans, stained colored windows and rusty window frames seem to be original features.
Looking through the menu we were surprisingly tempted by the wide variety of food choices and ended up ordering a mixed platter containing french toast, marinated deep fried chicken wings, deep fried fish fillets & french fries, and deep fried prawn toast! The drinks were a la carte, and we ordered an ice lemon tea, iced milk tea and a red bean lotus seed ice drink.
Considering the price of the drinks, we thought the size of the lemon and milk teas could have been larger. They were nothing special in taste or presentation.
The mixed platter was pleasantly and surprisingly good! It was essentially HK on a plate! The batter on the french toast was light and crispy with soft bread inside, the fish fillets were lightly fried and tasty along with the french fries. The deep fried chicken wings were marinated well and the prawn 🍤 toast was slightly oily, but enjoyable.
Overall, great place to chill at the moment, as little to no tourists. Great for those with instagram accounts.
