Dishes
One-Bite ToastA bite-sized toast is a dessert made primarily from bread, peanut butter, and condensed milk. The preparation involves removing the crusts from the bread, cutting it into small cubes, spreading peanut butter on each piece, stacking them, then cutting into bite-sized portions. The pieces are dipped in egg mixture and pan-fried until golden brown, then drizzled with condensed milk.
Curry Fish BallsCurry fish balls is a dish primarily made with fish balls, seasoned with curry blocks and onions. The preparation involves boiling the fish balls first, then stewing them together with sautéed onions and curry blocks until the sauce thickens and the fish balls absorb the flavors.
Signature Hong Kong Style Milk TeaSignature Hong Kong-style milk tea is made with black tea base and sweetened with condensed or evaporated milk. Typically using Ceylon or Assam tea, brewed, filtered, then blended with milk for a rich, smooth drink. The balance of tea to milk ensures harmonious flavor.
Hong Kong Style Sour Orange SevenHong Kong-style salty lime soda is a drink made primarily with salty limes. Sliced salty limes are mixed with carbonated drinks like Seven-Up. The limes are first soaked in salt water for several days to develop their unique flavor, then combined with ice and soda for a refreshing taste.
Beef and Egg RiceA savory dish featuring tender beef, fresh ox tongue, and fluffy eggs served over steamed rice.
Classic Hong Kong Lemon TeaClassic Hong Kong-style lemon tea is based on black tea, with fresh lemon slices or juice, sweetened with syrup or sugar, and served over ice or cold-brewed. Typically, brewed tea is cooled, mixed with lemon and sugar, creating a refreshing, tangy drink.
Classic Beef Chow FunA classic Cantonese stir-fried rice noodle dish with beef, bean sprouts, and scallions, seasoned with soy and oyster sauce for a savory, smooth flavor.
Shrimp and Egg Fried RiceShrimp and egg rice features scrambled eggs and shrimp cooked together, creating a silky texture with tender, springy shrimp. Mixed with rice, it forms a fragrant, flavorful main dish.
Pineapple Flaky PastryA flaky pineapple bun has a crispy crust and soft dough inside. Ingredients include high-gluten flour, yeast, sugar, milk, butter, and eggs. After fermenting and shaping, the buns are brushed with egg wash, sprinkled with white sesame, and scored with diamond patterns before baking until golden. The flaky topping is made from low-gluten flour, butter, and sugar, creating a layered, crunchy crust.
Heartbreaking Char Siu RiceChar siu rice features rice topped with marinated and roasted pork. The pork, usually from tenderloin or梅花肉, is seasoned with soy sauce, honey, oyster sauce, and five-spice powder, then grilled until crispy outside and juicy inside.
