Kowloon Restaurants

From high tea at the Peninsula to dim sum in a back alley, Kowloon pretty much has it all when it comes to dining out. The number of once ubiquitous 'dai pai dong' food stalls and noodle stands selling congee and rice has now dwindled down but that doesn't mean you cannot get good street food - far from it. The central Tsim Sha Tsui area has an abundance of markets and the ever popular Temple Street and Ladies Market are teaming with fantastic restaurants and vendors serving local favorites every day.

Kowloon's fine dining scene is on the rise too - quite literally - as many Michelin-starred restaurants set up shop in the rows of skyscrapers overlooking the harbor. These offer incredible views, have some of the world's best chefs in their kitchens and welcome food critics from around the world.

Below, find the full listings of our recommended Kowloon restaurants, complete with information regarding menus, price, location and opening times.


Above and Beyond

Occupying the entire 28th floor at Hotel ICON in Tsim Sha Tsiu, Above and Beyond is one of the most recommended restaurants in Kowloon if you’re seeking a good view with your dinner. Food here is Cantonese, although this categorization is flexible, with the talented chefs constantly innovating classic recipes by introducing new ingredients and flavours (for example, their sweet and sour pork uses Iberian pork, and the steamed lobster is cooked with egg white and black truffles). Decor is smart and minimalist, allowing the spectacular Victoria Harbour views from the floor-to-ceiling windows to take centre stage. 

Opening Hours: Mon-Sun 11:00-14:30; 18:00-22:30
Address: 28/F, Hotel Icon, 17 Science Museum Road
Tel: +852 3400 1318


AL MOLO Ristorante Italiano

Al MOLO is not your ordinary Italian diner. Firstly, the location by the harbour front is quite spectacular, and their alfresco dining area takes full advantage of the views looking across to the towering city skyline in the background. Although pastas and pizzas do take up a chunk of the menu, other mains make dining here a much more interesting experience. Creative and altogether more exciting examples include their pan seared octopus with sour cream, shaved vegetable salad and citrus vinaigrette (HK$168) as well as the braised veal shank, which comes with bone marrow, saffron risotto and sautéed spinach (HK$298).

Opening Hours: 12:00-23:00 daily
Location: Ocean Terminal City Harbour
Tel: +852 2730 7900


Angelini (Shangri-La)

Located at Hong Kong’s breathtaking Shangri-La Hotel, Angelini specialises in fine-dining Italian classics, and presents just as impressive views over Victoria Harbour. Particularly pretty creations that almost look too good to be devoured include the Hokkaido scallops on taleggio cream and truffle pearl, as well as the Wagyu sirloin, which comes with tuna sauce and caper flowers. Pastas start from around HK$300, whilst some of the mains are more like HK$500, meaning this classy spot is (inevitably) up there with Hong Kong’s more expensive dining experiences. 

Opening Hours: Daily 12:00-15:00; 18:00-23:00
Address: Kowloon Shangri-La, 64 Mody Rd., Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2721 2111


Aqua Roma

Aqua Roma focuses on modern Italian cooking from the south of the country. Located in Kowloon’s groovy One Peking, Aqua has ultra-stylish interiors, stunning harbour and city vistas, and its innovative combination of Italian and Japanese cuisine is quite something. The restaurant is a contemporary tribute to Italian chic with tiered banquette seating guaranteeing an uninterrupted harbour view from each and every table.

Address: 29/F, One Peking, 1 Peking Road, Tsim Sha Tsui
Tel: (852) 3427 2288
Cuisine: Modern Italian


Cafe Kool

Hong Kong’s gorgeous Shangri-La is one of the best hotels about, so it’s no surprise that it’s home to some of the best restaurants too. Cafe Kool - compared to the hotel’s more refined Angelini’s or Shang - is a far more casual affair, offering all-day international dining in an open plan setting. There’s a mammoth buffet spread, and al la carte offerings include a far reaching array of flavours, from prime ribs steaks and burgers to Nasi goring and Thai seafood curry. Find this Kowloon restaurant on the Mezzanine level of the Shangri-La.


Opening Hours: 06:00-24:00 daily
Location: Kowloon Shangri-La, 64 Mody Rd., Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2721 2111


Cambo Thai Restaurant

Opening Hours: Daily 11:00 – 23:00
Address: G/F, 15 Nga Tsin Long Road
Tel: (852) 2716 7318

Address: Shop 130, 3F Silvercord, 30 Canton Road

Cuisine: Shanghai and Taiwanese


Fong Wing Kee

Normally a winter dish, Chinese Hot Pot has become so popular with visitors to Hong Kong that it is now served all year round and Fong Wing Kee was one of the first places in Hong Kong to hit on this innovative idea, making it a speciality of the house. A must-try is the satay hot pot, which uses a variety of fresh ingredients combined with herbs and spices.

Opening Hours: 11:30 – 02:00
Address: 85-87, Hau Wong Road
Tel: (852) 2382 1788
Cuisine: Hot Pot


Gaylord Indian Restaurant

Some might flinch at the name, but when it comes to classic Indian cuisine, Kowloon’s popular Gaylord Restaurant takes things very seriously. The menu here is packed full of all the classics including a range of curries, naans, tandoori meats, rice and deserts. Whilst there’s nothing particularly innovative about the way things are done in the kitchen, quality Indian food like this rarely needs adaptation. Most side dishes cost less than HK$50 and mains less than HK$100 – so bonus points when the bill arrives at the end. Find this sophisticated Kowloon restaurant on the first floor of Ashley Centre in the middle of Tsim Sha Tsui.

Opening Hours: 12:00-14:45; 18:00-22:30 daily

Harbourside Restaurant – InterContinental

Buffets in Hong Kong don’t get much more impressive than this, terms of both setting and choice of food. True to its name, the InterContinental’s all-day dining venue is located right next to the harbour, and the floor-to-ceiling windows allow you to tuck into your roast beef with a side of sushi and pizza (or whatever takes your fancy) whilst admiring the views. For a real treat, head here between 11:30-15:00 on a Sunday for their all-you-can-eat, all-you-can-drink Champagne buffet (HK$888 per head).

Hutong

Along with a superb harbour view, Hutong restaurant presents an inspiring dining space high up over Kowloon, created by moody lighting, ancient Chinese artwork, traditional red lanterns and rustic wooden furniture. In fitting with the decor, food here sticks firmly to classic Chinese, specialising in dishes from the north of the country. Hot spice is a welcome element throughout the menu, such as in the fiery soft-shell crab with Sichuan dried chilli or their prawns with dried chilli, Sichuan peppers and Chinese celery. Those with more of a sensitive palate can opt for their ultra-succulent roasted suckling pig too. Dinner for two at this highly recommended Kowloon restaurant should set you back between HK$600-800 (depending on how much you choose to indulge).   

Opening Hours: 12:00-15:00; 18:00-24:00 daily

Tel: (852) 2732 2343
Cuisine: American steaks


Peace Restaurant

Peace is a contemporary retro-Chinese restaurant skilfully appointed with Chinese 50s-style furnishings and artefacts. Try the chicken and wonton soup served in a casserole. All ingredients are carefully selected to create a unique blend of flavours and tastes. Other favourites among regular patrons include the sautéed freshwater shrimp and steamed pork dumplings from Northern China.

Opening Hours: Monday – Friday 15:00 – 04:00 Saturday and Sunday 11:00 – 16:00

Sai Sha Café Limited

Sai Sha Café is first and foremost a place to enjoy the ambience. The décor is simple and with a large open area for alfresco dining surrounded by lush hills and picturesque countryside views.

Opening Hours: 11:00 – 01:00

Cuisine: Southeast Asian


Shang Palace (Shangri-La)

The Shangri-La’s signature Chinese restaurant Shang Palace, as you might expect, presents a refined and altogether exclusive dining experience not to be forgotten. Round tables fill the grand dining room which is elegantly designed with traditional Chinese furnishings and colours. The vast al la carte menu might leave you not knowing where to start, so opt for one of their set lunches or dinners to get a better sample of how good the food actually is. The dim sum and chef’s set lunches start at a reasonable HK$360, whilst you’ll pay all over HK$1,500 per head for the signature dinner set and wine pairing. 

Opening Hours: 12:00-15:00; 18:30-23:00 daily
Address: Kowloon Shangri-La, 64 Mody Rd., Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2733 8754


SPOON by Alain Ducasse

Alain Ducasse’s critically acclaimed SPOON restaurant has one Michelin-star to its name, and anybody who’s heard of this world-famous chef will know exactly what’s in store here, and that’s contemporary French cuisine at its finest. The elegant dining room is undeniable classy and shies away from any stuffiness associated with French fine dining with huge panes of glass framing the view over Victoria harbour. As expected, the ever-changing seasonal menu takes advantage of exclusive ingredients such as lobster, foie gras, oyster, veal and rare cuts of beef, lamb, duck and pork. Michelin-stared restaurants in Hong Kong – or anywhere else in the world for that matter – don’t come cheap, so expect a three-course dinner for two people to cost around HK$3,000.


Opening Hours: 18:00-23:00 daily (Sunday lunch 12:00-14:30)
Address: Lobby level, InterContinental Hong Kong, 18 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui
Tel: +852 2313 2256


Spring Deer Restaurant

Another out-and-out Chinese restaurant, Spring Deer is spacious and can seat up to 300 diners but the wait staff are well trained and tend to seat foreigners together to stay on top of things. The speciality here is Peking duck with hoi sin sauce and portions are large so try to go in a group but do explore other items on the menu other than the duck. It’s a good idea to order a pot of Chinese tea and the Spring Deer’s inexpensive Tsing Tau beer helps the food slip down better.

Opening Hours: 12:00 – 23:00
Location: 2/F, 42 Mody Road, Tsim Sha Tsui
Tel: (852) 2366-4012/2366-5839


Temple Spice Crabs

Located at the busy Temple Street Night Market, this hugely popular Kowloon restaurant serves up some of the best crabs going, cooked exactly how you like. Look out for the iconic golden lettering set against the silver background to find it, and there’s usually quite a crowd (both locals and tourists) who fill up the terrace space from early evening. Most of the seating is outside, allowing you to watch the passing crowds or peer into the hectic, partly open kitchen as you tackle your crustacean. 

Opening Hours: 17:00-late
Address: No.210 Temple Street, Hong Kong


Tenku RyuGin

Regularly touted as one of the finest restaurants in Asia, this swanky Japanese establishment excels in delectable cuisine as well as stunning views over Hong Kong. Many Kowloon restaurants take advantage of the plethora of skyscrapers facing Hong Kong Island, but none quite like RyuGin, which is found on the 101st floor of the ICC building, the tallest skyscraper in Hong Kong. Recently gaining its second Michelin star, the menu here really does promise a gastronomic experience like no other. Unusual, creative and altogether exciting selections include the black custard with Aori squid, egani crab and Hokkaido sea urchin salad, almond tofu with orange-carrot jelly and the restaurant’s signature ‘ -196°C candy apple with 99°C apple jam’. Reservations, as well as a hefty holiday budget (the set dinner is HK$2,000 per head), are both required at this top Hong Kong restaurant. 

Opening Hours: 18:30-21:30 daily
Address: 101/F, International Commerce Centre, 1 Austin Road West
Tel: +852 2302 0222


The Market

Making up a trio of excellent dining spots at Hotel Icon (along with Above & Beyond and ‘Green’) is The Market, an all-day restaurant offering international al la carte offers alongside an enormous buffet spread. Produce is fresh, and flavours span the entire world, from sashimi, pizza, grilled meat, noodles, seafood, curry, salads and much, much more. Just like many hotel restaurants in Kowloon, The Market is open all day every day from 06:00 (mostly catering for hotel guests) and closes at 22:00. 

Opening Hours: 06:00-22:00 daily
Address: Level 2, Hotel Icon, 17 Science Museum Road
Tel: +852 3400 1318


The Verandah (Peninsula Hotel)

Originally opened in 1933, The Verandah at the Peninsula Hotel was one of the first restaurants in Hong Kong to embrace fine dining. Today, this classy Kowloon spot is still going strong, albeit in some updated, modern surroundings. Those with a small appetite might want to stay away however, as the Verandah is all about the buffets; serving breakfast, lunch and dinner spreads every day, the fresh, seasonal ingredients are imported from all over the world and served both fresh and cooked by the expert chefs behind the scenes. The lunch buffet in the week is a very reasonable HK$448 (HK$769 on weekends) and dinner is HK$768 seven days per week.

Opening Hours: 07:00-22:00 daily
Address: First Floor, The Peninsula Hong Kong, Salisbury Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2920 2888


Todai

Todai is probably the best-stocked seafood buffet in Kowloon. Don't expect intimacy but do expect mountains of ultra-fresh lobsters, mussels, fish filets, snow crab legs, oysters, half shell scallops, jumbo shrimps, 40 kinds of sushi with over 15 kinds of appetizers.

Opening Hours: Daily
Address: Mirimar Shopping Centre, Nathan Road
Tel: (852) 2375 9339

Hong Kong Island Restaurants

Hong Kong Island restaurants are of course famous for specialising in some of the best Chinese food you’ll find anywhere in the world, but the area has also become famous for its fine-ding scene, with many critically acclaimed diners earning Michelin stars and serving up gastronomic masterpieces which foodies all over the world fly in to sample. 

As well as a booming scene centred around Chinese and modern European cuisine, Hong Kong Island also has hundreds of quality, middle of the road restaurants where you dollar will go much further and you’ll still be in for a treat. 

Many of these restaurant listings are located near the popular nightlife area of Lan Kwai Fong near Central Station, whilst we have also included plenty of choice spots in Sheung Wan, Wan Chai and Causeway Bay. Scroll down to see all of our favourite restaurants in Hong Kong Island. 

Agnes b Le Pain Grille, Cubus

Going along with European modern simplicity, agnès b. LE PAIN GRILLÉ at Cubus aims to create a contemporary dining house in warm and relaxing ambiance. The menu of the restaurant emphasizes on a blend of authentic European cuisine with a modern twist, and offers a carefully selected list of fine wine and whisky.

Opening Hours: Sun – Thu 12:00 - 23:00 (22:00 last order),
Fri & Sat & Public Holiday Eve 12:00 - 23:30 (22:30 last order)
Address: 15/F, Cubus, 1 Hoi Ping Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong
Tel: (852) 2577 2718
Cuisine: French

Ammo

There are few fining dining spaces in Hong Kong as cool as Ammo, with the whole metallic-industrial them inspired by the restaurant’s location in a former British explosives magazine compound. A vast metal art installation looms over the bar, whilst the chrome lighting and sleek glass tables also help to create a space that’s simply needs to be seen. You can come for a full slap-up meal and enjoy modern bistro dishes such as their recommended crab salad (with couscous, orange, grapefruit, avocado and lemon cream), fassone beef tartare or warm seafood broth – or just grab a seat at the swanky bar to enjoy some excellent cocktails in the stunning setting.

Opening Hours: 11:00-24:00 daily
Address: 9 Justice Drive, Admiralty, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2537 9888

Arcane

This Central Hong Kong spot serves up light, modern European cuisine with an emphasis on using fresh, often locally sourced produce. The restaurant only opened in 2014 so decor is modern and contemporary, with floor to ceiling windows letting light flood in from the outside. They also have an elegant alfresco terrace where you can tuck into dishes such as marinated scallops in lime with avocado crème fraiche as well as charred new season onion salad with celery, truffle and Jerusalem artichokes – all whilst sitting next to herbs and spices growing in the garden used to make your food. Easy to find too, on Lan Street, a few minutes’ walk from Central Station. 

Opening Hours: 12:00-14:00; 18:30-22:30 (closed Sundays)
Address: 3/F, 18 On Lan Street, Central
Tel: +852 2728 0178

Bo innovation

Three Michelin-stared head chef Alvin Leung – who calls himself the ‘Demon Chef’ - is known throughout Hong Kong to be a rock star of the city’s culinary road, thanks both to his appearance and apparent disregard of the rules defining how Chinese food should be cooked. True to the restaurant’s name, Bo Innovation serves up some of the most creative molecular gastronomic dishes around, such as oie gras ‘mui choy’ (preserved mustard green), pigeon and shitake mushroom cake, French quail baked in clay and their signature Molecular Xiao Long Bao – an unusual take on traditional Chinese pork dumplings. Lunch sets, although light, start at HK$390 – very reasonable considering this was rated as Asia’s 15 best restaurants. Those coming for dinner need to book in advance and expect prices to be more like HK$1,500 per person. 

Opening Hours: Mon-Fri 12:00-14:30, 19:00-00:00; Sat 18:00-00:00 (closed Sunday)
Address: Shop 13, 2/F, J Residence, 60 Johnston Road, Wan Chai
Tel: +852 2850 8371

Bubba Gump Shrimp Company

Part of a chain of 30 restaurants, the Bubba Gump Shrimp Company has fantastic views from the top of Victoria Peak Tower. Dixie-style baby back ribs and grilled fish with Cajun shrimp are some of the menu's specialties.

Opening Hours: 11:00 – 23:00
Address: Shop 304 & 305, Level 3 The Peak Tower, 128 Peak Road The Peak, Hong Kong
Tel: (852) 2849 2867
Cuisine: Grill

Bulldog's Bar & Grill

A busy place doubling as a pub, with real tummy-filling dishes and lashes of beer. A home away from home for many expats, but don't expect a quiet meal with white tablecloths and fawning waiters. Roughish stuff, but value for the money.

Address: G/F, 17 Lan Kwai Fong, Central, Hong Kong
Tel: (852) 2523 3528

Caledonia

Hong Kong's only authentic Scottish restaurant and bar, Caledonia also boasts Asia's largest selection of single malt whisky. From its amazing 'Wall of Whisky' in The Whisky Bar, through its Scottish and house ales in the Lounge Bar, to The Argyll Room, an a la carte seafood outlet, Caledonia excels, as well as presenting an interesting insight into the history of the territory.

Opening Hours: 12:00 – 02:00
Address: Hutchison House, 10 Harcourt Road, Central
Tel: (852) 2524 1314
Cuisine: Scottish

Catalunya

For fine Spanish food served up in rustic, cozy, yet overwhelmingly modern setting, look no further than Catalunya, located in between Wan Chai and Causeway Bay. Signature tapas such as the suckling pig tapa and jamon Iberico croquettes are delightful, although the inevitably small portion sizes (it is tapas after all) makes the HK$100-200 price tag per dish seem a little excessive. For heartier servings, go for Catalunya’s stuffed chicken or lamb shoulder (HK$450 per person) and don’t forget to explore their excellent (but again pricey) cocktail and wine list. 

Opening Hours: 12:00-02:00 daily
Address: Guardian House, 32 Oi Kwan Road, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2866 7900

Celebrity Cuisine - Lan Kwai Fong Hotel

The curiously named Celebrity Cuisine restaurant serves classic Cantonese food in some rather fancy surroundings, and now has two Michelin stars to its name. We can only guess they got their name from the decor; the walls a draped in soft purple fabric, whilst spotlights illuminate round tables with plush black leather chairs, almost creating a V.I.P lounge feel. Away from the questionable interior design, food here is fantastic, with signature dishes to go for including the bird’s nest soup and steamed crab claw stuffed with minced meat. A dinner for two with wine will be over $1000, putting this up there with the pricier Hong Kong Island restaurants, yet not completely breaking then bank.


Opening Hours: 12:00-15:00; 18:00-23:00
Address: 1/F Lan Kwai Fong Hotel, No. 3 Kau U Fong, Central
Tel: +852 3650 0066

China Tang

This refined Chinese dining venue is the work of Sir David Tang, a Hong Kong entrepreneur who has restaurants to his name across the island as well as a prestigious spot at the Dorchester in London. His latest venture is located at the Landmark hotel in Central, and specialises in elegant, elaborate Cantonese decor and small portions of classic Chinese food which are all given a modern twist – perhaps in an attempt to justify the often astronomical price tags. Expect starters such as barbecued pork to start at $230, whilst a relatively light dim sum lunch can set you back over $1000. Inevitably, the crowd is mostly made up of city works and big bosses taking out their clients on company expenses. 

Opening Hours: Mon-Sun: 12:00-14:30; 18:00-22:30
Address: Shop 411-413, 4/F., Landmark Atrium, 15 Queen's Road Central, Central
Tel: +85 2522 2148

Chino Restaurant

Don’t be fooled by the name, Chino restaurant in Sheung Wan serves up some of the best Mexican food around, and has been the talking point of many foodies across Hong Kong since its opening in 2014. Chino wouldn’t have been able to generate so much attention by dishing out your everyday tacos and chilli con carnies, and you can expect Asian influences in their inventive menu, such as tortilla soup, grilled sweet corn with spicy chipotle kewpie and pork neck tacos. Decor is sleek and simple, with a clean black-on-white theme allowing the unusual Mexican-Asian crossover flavours to do all the talking.


Opening Hours: Tues-Fri 18:00-14:00; Sat 12:00-15:00, 18:00-24:00; Sun 12:00-18:00
Address: 1B-1C New Praya, Kennedy Town, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2606-0588

Club Bacchus

Club Bacchus is a cool spot for wining and dining after a shopping spree at Pacific Place or in the local markets. The food is Mediterranean – Greek, Spanish and Italian – and the prices are reasonable. Club Bacchus combines a cool atmosphere with fruity red wines, and if you fancy some plate-smashing routines, no problem: Greek-style destruction of crockery is encouraged.

Address: Hop Hing Centre, 8 Hennessy Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong
Tel: (852) 2529 9032
Cuisine: Mediterranean

Club Qing

Conveniently located at Lan Kwai Fong, this tiny restaurant is well-known across Hong Kong for its traditional Chinese delicacies and refined dining atmosphere. The quaint dining room feels more like somebody’s living room rather than a restaurant, and is adorned with old Cantonese artwork, antique furniture and the ceiling is washed in bright red to really set the mood. There are only four round tables (for groups) in the room, and you’ll need to reserve one at least a week in advance. 

Opening Hours: Mon-Sun 13:00-23:00
Address: 8-11 Lan Kwai Fong, 10th floor, Cosmos Bldg, Central
Tel: +852 2536 9773

Eighteen Sharp

Eighteen Sharp is the work of veteran Hong Kong chef Andy Chan, who made a name for himself for his playful Chinese fusion dishes during his time as head chef across town at the popular Qing Club restaurant. His latest venture at the Franck Muller building in Causeway Bay follows the same concept of combining bold, often unusual flavors and all dishes come elaborately constructed on the plate. Recommended mains include the deep-fried, rose-flavoured bird’s nest, with a blood orange and ginger cocktail, whilst the heartier Iberico pork cutlet with li-shan source or the roasted chicken with black truffles and porcini are a bit more substantial – and better value for money. 

Opening Hours: 12:00-15:00; 18:00-24:00
Address: 2/F, 15 Sharp Street East, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2153 3366

Fat Angelo's Italian Restaurant

A family style Italian restaurant serving generous portions, this place is bustling, loud, and slightly chaotic, making it sometimes hard to flag down your waitress. Still, all in all, this place is good for a fun outing with a group.

It offers good value with its hearty renditions of Italian food, including pastas ranging from traditional spaghetti marinara to fettuccine with salmon and main courses like rosemary roasted chicken, grilled salmon with pesto, and eggplant Parmesan, all of which come with salad and homemade bread. The emphasis here is on quantity, not quality, though the food's not too bad.

Opening Hours: Daily 12:00 – 00:00
Address: 102, 1/F Elizabeth House,, 250 Gloucester Road, Hong Kong
Tel: (852) 2574 6263
Cuisine: American/Italian

Foxtail & Broomcorn

In Hong Kong, you don’t have to look hard if you want to find a decent bowl of noodles. But then again, not many places come as well packaged as Foxtail & Broomcorn, a modern take on the traditional noodle shop house located just steps away from Sheung Wan MTR Station. The space looks fresh, modern and hip with ample seating options either at a bar or set-out table. Also, unlike many restaurants that specialise in one type of noodles, Foxtail & Broomcorn covers it all, from egg noodle broths, to laksa and even ramen. Set lunches start at a reasonable $70. 

Opening Hours: 11:00-late
Address: 84 Jervois St, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2415 2555

Francesco by Franck Muller

The luxury Swiss watchmakers Frank Muller recently bought up a mammoth four-storey space at Hong Kong’s famous Causeway Bay, and on the third floor you’ll find this bright, lively and highly recommended restaurant. Francesco specializes in a mix of Italian and Japanese cuisine, although in reality their short but sweet menu reads more like a modern European bistro’s, with the likes of Boston lobster, slow cooked salmon and grilled steaks sitting next to the Italian-Japanese inclusions such as pastas, risottos, miso soup and black cod saikyo yaki.

Ho Lee Fook

Inspired by the retro Chinese hangouts of 1960’s New York, this cheekily named restaurant serves up inventive Chinese flavours (with some dishes bordering on fusion) in some fun and funky surroundings. Dumplings, beef ribs, fried calamari and barbecued pork top the list of recommendations, although it’s really the jovial atmosphere and hipster-friendly props scattered around the place that put Ho Lee Fook on the map (as well as that name). If you’re claustrophobic be warned too: the basement dining room has no windows, which either creates a sense of intimacy or makes you feel like you’re sat in the middle of a dingy nightclub, depending on how you look at it. 

Opening Hours: Daily 18:00 – late
Address: G/F No. 1-5 elgin st, Central, Hong Kong

Kau Kee Restaurant

This is beef brisket noodle soup at its best but with absolutely no frills attached. It’s worth getting bullied by the short-tempered staff here at this noodle stand because the fare is sumptuous but don’t imagine for a minute that you won’t be encouraged to eat up and be on your way. The turnover here is incredibly fast. There’s a good reason that Kau Kee has been featured in both the Michelin Guide and Time Magazine. And it’s the food.

Mott 32

This gorgeous venue on Hong Kong Island takes its name from New York’s first ever Chinese convenience store, and the concept of both decor and menu both follow in suite with this east meets west philosophy. As you make your way down the stairs you almost feel like you’ve enter a basement prohibition bar, with broody lighting, exposed iron pipes and stylish installations that all really enhance that underground feeling. Cantonese signature dishes include sliced Peking duck and dim sum, whilst that western influence is represented with imported ingredients such Iberico pork used in their char siu ($295), as well as the garoupa and truffle cheung fun rice noodles ($130). It’s not cheap, but the memorable interior and inventive food make a visit to Mott 32 well worth the money.

Mrs. pound

Even before you’ve stepped inside Mrs. Pound, you almost know already how hip this cute little Vietnamese-Chinese restaurant is going to be. In fact, from the outside it resembles more of a traditional Chinese medicine shop rather than a place you can come for lunch. Once inside, take one of the booths or sit at the uber-cool bar with lavish green chairs and a long list of inventive cocktails. Food wise, the bulgogi pork belly skewers ($38) are melt in the mouth heaven, whilst their Hainan chicken ($148) and Mrs P’s signature chilli crab ($468) are also both recommended mains. Recently opened, Mrs. Pounds has been widely heralded as one of Hong Kong Island’s most exciting new eateries.

Neighbourhood Restaurant

This fancy French-European diner is located on the ever-popular Hollywood Road in Central, Hong Kong. We could describe the menu to you in more detail if they didn’t insist on changing it every week – something of a novelty it must be said. Seasonal ingredients are strictly used to create modern takes on French classics, such as artichoke barigoule, bouillabaisse and beef tartare. Unlike many of Hong Kong’s fine-dining venues where decor is overly elaborate or overly refined, things are kept simple at Neighbourhood, with minimal table settings, sleek dark seating and moody low lights. Certainly one of the more recommended Central Hong Kong restaurants for those planning to blow the best part of $1000 on dinner.

Seasons by Olivier E.

Executive chef Oliver Elzer works his magic in the kitchen at Seasons, creating exquisitely presented modern French cuisine. Although the rather formal interior is a little hotel restaurant-esque, there is a range of seating options, including at the bar, on a plush cushioned in the main room, or around the back in one of the secluded areas – although these need to be reserved in advance.

The unique concept here is simple and delicious: savory ‘tapas’ style pancakes paired with original cocktails. Go for the slow cooked ribs, which are succulent and sweet and paired nicely with vodka and fruity cocktail, or the salmon tartare served on a layer of thick, but relatively bland pancake mix. Prices are kept sensible (around HK$100 for a main) and the ultra-modern industrial décor also impresses too. 

Opening Hours: 18:00-23:30
Address: G/F, 1 Third Street, Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong
Tel: +852 2549 9787

Stone Nullah Tavern

American cuisine is usually associated with quantity rather than quality, so it might seem a bit strange to come to a restaurant specializing in this kind of food when you’re surrounded by some of the best restaurants and street food options in the world. However, Stone Nullah Tavern has refined their menu, focusing on ‘New American Fare’ which includes the likes of veal steak, tuna tartare, freshly shucked oysters and smoked cauliflower alongside more comforting American classic like mac n’ cheese, biscuits & gravy and a massive ‘chicken dinner’ set for HK$1,300. Lots of wood throughout, as well as cask ales flowing up from the basement both help to create the authentic tavern feel too.

Hong Kong Food

In the spring, seafood is given special emphasis in Hong Kong. Fresh and dried delicacies, such as oysters, shark's fin, shrimp and seaweed are prepared in a wide array of mouth-watering dishes. Numerous restaurants offer live fish and lobster, too, to be selected by you and cooked to your specifications. One bite and you'll be back for more!



In the summertime, Hong Kong diners get to choose from a remarkable range of fruit, in addition to the usual vegetables. Fresh melons — winter melon, bitter melon, honeydew and watermelon — are not only welcome on hot sunny days, but they are also ingeniously prepared as soup and served in other unique ways as pleasing to the eye as to the tongue.

Crab — green, soft-shell, hairy, and giant — is the top choice each autumn in Hong Kong. Featured in everything from soups and salads, appetisers and entrées, the delicate flavour of crab meat adds a touch of luxury and a hint of richness to every dish. Both Eastern and Western dishes use crab meat, so you'll get to enjoy this tasty crustacean either way.

In winter, the ever-popular hotspot is the key to keeping friends and family groups comfortably warm and well-fed. Many other soups, especially double-boiled ones with meat and herbs are favoured to enhance one's energy and to improve blood circulation during winter's chill.




Cha Cha Cha

What could be more synonymous with Chinese tradition than tea drinking? Historically, teapots and tiny cups were specially made to bring out the best flavour and aroma of the various teas. Sipping Chinese tea, whether it is Oolong, Jasmine, or Pu Erh, tea is a wonderful way to conclude a satisfying meal. Tea drinking is an important aspect of the culture of Hong Kong, where some kind of tea is almost always served. A resounding favourite is Hong-Kong-style milk tea, stemming from the days of British colonial rule: black tea mixed with evaporated or sweetened condensed milk. High Tea at The Lobby in The Peninsula Hotel is another of Hong Kong's famous afternoon delights.

Congee

Congee (a thick rice soup/porridge) is one of Hong Kong's most well-known dishes. Served with your choice of a variety of ingredients, including sliced chicken, fishballs, minced pork, salted eggs or mushrooms, and garnished with chopped spring onions, this is a satisfying way to start the day. The Tasty Congee and Noodle Wantun Shop located in Happy Valley, but within walking distance of the South Pacific Hotel, serves it up piping hot. Try a bowl!
