Hi my name is Janice Fung and we are in Hong Kong today
and for today's video we are going to check out some of my favourite Hong Kong cafes/teahouses/restaurants
and let me show you exactly what i like to eat when i'm in Hong Kong
Let's go
Must eat/ visit Hong Kong (HK) Restaurant #1: Lan Fong Yuan - 2 Gage St Central, Hong Kong
Must Eat (Food they are known for): Hong Kong Style Milk tea & Pork Chop Bun
I'm here now at Lan Fong Yuan and i'm going to get the pork bun and also milk tea
the thing is the line is massive and it took me 15 minutes to find where this place is
it is literally a hole in the wall there is a massive line and i'm assuming its good
i think this is the place where they first had the hong kong milk tea
so that is definitely what i am going to be trying today
alright i just got my [Hong Kong style] milk tea here, and i'm about to see what the fuss is all about
i got an iced one because it is quite hot today in Hong Kong
wow
this is so incredibly smooth
and i'm actually not too sure what milk they use i'm going to find out and google it
(they use condensed milk)
but it is so creamy and delicious
OK so in addition to the milk tea i also got a pork bun which is right here
the wait was about 20 minutes -
there's no where to sit which is why i'm literally on the floor
and there's a lady sweeping the floor right next to me
this is what it looks like - it is a, like a hamburger bun
- they've toasted it as well and there is butter and tomato inside and
just a little tiny piece of pork
it's very, very small, which is perfect because i have dinner plans later
and this isn't going to spoil my appetite
the pork chop was a bit tough to chew but the flavours are there
look, it's not bad at all, but if you're coming to Central Hong Kong,
this [Hong Kong style milk tea] is what you should get - the Hong Kong style milk tea is where it's at -
you should definitely get it This one [pork chop bun] if you have other
stuff you want to eat, maybe give that a pass, but the Hong Kong style milk tea, man,
go visit that place
Must eat & visit Hong Kong (HK) Restaurant #2: Sun Hang Yuen - 38 Kweilin St, Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong
Must Eat (Food they are known for): Minced Beef & Egg Sandwich
OK i've just arrived at this place called Sun Hang Yuen and one of their most famous
dishes here is the beef and egg sandwich, which is exactly what i've got
they've got a bunch of other stuff that are quite famous as well including the Hong Kong
style French toast, and a couple of drinks, but for today all i'm going to be having is
the beef and egg sandwich
wow,
i can 100% understand why people come here for this sandwich.
the beef is so, so, so juicy
it doesn't make the bread soggy at all and it's extremely flavourful.
it's not messy at all like you can take a one biter and nothing would fall out
wow - it's amazing - look at this!
if you want to start you day right, come get a beef, egg sandwich.
they do it - BEST.
Must eat / visit Hong Kong (HK) Restaurant: #3: Lau Sum Kee Noodle House- 48 Kweilin Street, Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong
Must Eat (Food they are known for): Wonton Noodle Soup
i've just arrived at Lau Sum Kee Noodle House, So without further ado, let's start.
i'm going to try the broth first and see how it is -
i can definitely taste, like a bit of the prawns, and a bit of the meat as well
but it's very, very, very subtle.
Let's try the noodles
i'm going to try the wontons now -
the wrapper is extremely thin and there's so much stuffing in the wonton
it is so, so delicious and the prawns are so like fresh and springy!
the reason these wontons taste so good is because the filling is so fresh, it's legitimately
hard to beat and i can see why this is one of the top wonton places in Hong Kong.
Must eat / visit Hong Kong (HK) Restaurant:#4: Sing Heung Yuen - 2 Mee Lun Street, Central Hong Kong
Must Eat (Food they are known for): Tomato Noodles & Toast with condensed milk + butter
Ok - so this place is famous for their tomato noodles and they also have like sandwiches
as well what i've gotten is just a tomato and beef
noodles, because my favourite vegetable is tomato and my favourite protein is beef, and
this is like the best of both worlds. OK my noodles have just arrived and i actually
added an additional toast with my order of noodles and i got in trouble with the ladies
because she was like " you need to order these two things together, dont do it again next time!"
But i guess in Hong Kong, this makes the entire experience awesome -
if you don't get yelled at, at one of these cafes, you didnt have
a true Hong Kong restaurant / cafe experience.
One thing that I completely didnt realise
is the number of pigeons that are around us as we speak. but that's besides the point
i'm going to try the actual soup itself - the soup is extremely tomato-ey, it's like noodles
in tomato soup, literally. i actually dont know what it is that makes
this so good, but it's really delicious, and it's just so simple. there's like 3 ingredients
- instant noodles, tomato soup and beef.
and now this is what i got in trouble for
with the old lady because i didnt order it with my noodles at the exact same time.
it looks really good though, so #worthit,
it is so good.
it was really delicious and it just hit the spot. what i find really funny is how crowded
this place is, and the place directly next to it is completely empty -
even though it's like completely furnished, and looks really nice, there's no one there!
make sure you visit that place if you have a chance, they have really, really good noodles
that really hits the spot. You won't regret it.
Must eat / visit Hong Kong (HK) Restaurant: #5: Australian Dairy Company - 47 Parkes Street Jordan, Hong Kong
Must Eat (Food they are known for): delicious velvety eggs
I've just arrived at Australia Dairy Company and i ordered their tea set which includes
Butter toast, with scrambled eggs, cha siu spaghetti in soup, with a Hong Kong style
milk tea. i was really surprised at at how quickly we
could get a seat even though the line was like extremely long.
i'm really excited for the scrambled eggs and i will definitely share that with you when it comes
look at these eggs man, just look at them
wow it is so incredibly smooth - i honestly don't know how they do it
i got mine toasted as well so there's like butter and stuff on it
i dont know what it is about eggs on toast and ham, but it is just absolutely delicious.
and the way that they make their eggs, it's like silky and velvety
i'm going to make a sandwich out of it
i pretty much finished that egg and toast and ham combo in like 10 minutes because i'm starving
but worry not, i still got my spaghetti with char siu waiting for me
this is what it looks like -
ok the char siu was actually really good, it was very very flavourful, i was thinking like because it's
been in the soup for so long it'd be like - it wouldnt taste of much
i'm going to try my best to taste the broth as well -
i'm trying my best not to intrude in everyone else's space, because it is a tiny square
table shared with four people, 3 of whom i do not know
the soup doesnt taste like anything - it just tastes like watered down taste of the char siu
and with my meal it comes with a drink and
i ordered a hot Hong Kong style milk tea. i dont usually add sugar to any of my teas
or coffees because i feel like, you know i'm just trying to be a bit healthy
wow - you just cant go wrong with Hong Kong style milk tea.
just done with having lunch at Australia Dairy Company. i thought it was delicious! the eggs,
oh man, it is so silky, so velvety smooth - i have to go back again before i leave,
but i just dont know if i have the time anyway, i know a lot of people say you should
know your order before you go in because they really hurry you, and some of them (the waiters)
aren't the most polite people, so i was worried because my cantonese isn't as good as what
it was before i left for Australia, so i practiced what i needed to order
but everyone was like, they weren't mean or anything - i didnt have a bad experience with
them at all and as i was leaving, one of the guys (waiters)
was like "what is your Youtube channel? i want to watch it"
and i was like hell yea! i'm going to plug my youtube channel!
definitely, definitely go visit Australian Dairy Company - maybe just have a read of
the menu before you enter, just so you have an idea of what you want to order because
they are very, very, very efficient and i'm not even exaggerating.
