There are many signature dishes like mango pudding and double boiled egg or milk. This stall is packed with a wide range of desserts.

Favorite Dish: I tried the double-boiled egg white and milk with harsmar and double-boiled egg yolk with bird's nest. They tasted good.

If you are looking for pure Vegetarian food or Jain food, try to go to Chung King Masion 5th Floor B block, it is good, quick service and not much crowded. Good for families too. They also deliver it to nearby hotels / guest house. Price very reasonable.

Also have food as prasad at ISKON Temple, where you get pure VEgatarian Lunch or Dinner, but only problem is you need to order it in advance, 2 to 3 hrs before.

This chinese restaurant is not too frequented by tourists, in fact, there were no tourists around when we dropped by, and it was a busy lunch hour! The crew all speak in Chinese and the only way to get your order up is by pointing the picture of the meal you wanted. Lots of noodles and soups. Diners unusually prefer milky cheese on toast as dessert and milky tea to go with it. (I keep wondering why but unfortunately didn't try it.) We also see a lot of ham and omelet ordered.

From the street, the restaurant's view is a frontage of kitchen crew making noodles and doing their usual kitchen tasks. (I bet the kitchen is never a boring place at all, being a great place to people-watch as well!)

King's Lodge is located in easily accessible Chatham Road South in Kowloon, amongst shopping stores and hotels. Very busy, especially at noontime, it appears to be a preferred place so we just went in to sample some real chinese dining.

Favorite Dish: There's a lot in the menu - rice meals, noodles and soups, and the usual chinese dishes found in most international cuisine restaurants. There are also exotic dishes one should try like eel and some fish i've never heard of. We decided to try lamb in spring onions and a grilled carp. The carp was rich and saucy and quite delicious, but i was particularly amazed that the lamb was cooked in perfection, one cannot tell its lamb. No unusual lamb smell, to be precise.

Price ranges HK$35-45

This Restaurant is called R66 and is located on the 62nd floor of the Hopewell Center. Take the glass lift up to experience the breathtaking view. It is called R66 as it revolves and takes 66 minutes to do a full rotation. I took my partner here for his birthday and we werent disappointed. It was amazing. The view was fantastic at night, the food was delicious. much to choose from and the value was excellent. We would definatley recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Hong Kong

Favorite Dish: Buffet, so much to chose from

We have a list of priorities when looking for a restaurant in a new location: Middle eastern, Indian, Brazilian (In that order). Since we had Falafer for lunch, and excellent Indian just two nights earlier, coming across the Brazilian BBQ seemed as if the trip was being tailored for our taste. Well, not quite. Brazilian BBQ (For the unfortunate souls how did not have the pleasure of experiencing it) is all about having BBQ meat served to you, till you burst, or give up and mark that you surrender to the gods of skewered meat by turning the little green/red flag to Red (equal to blaspheme).
Well, in this particular restaurant, it was very easy to see that the closest this establishment been to a Brazilian style restaurant is by stating it on the business card.
The salad bar was satisfying, but, come on, that's not why you go to Brazillian restaurant.
We were served several kinds of sausage, which I would not presume the content of meat to everything else ratio. Sweet Chicken wings, and by saying sweet, I would have thought they can put it in the desert menu, and some other purplish thing (They were saying it's some kind of meat), that we prefered not to try. Overall, not recommended, but the floor below had an Indian restaurant that looked promising, for the next time we're in the area...

Mask does not look very promising from the outside, but inside you'll find friendly staff in a relaxing sitting.
The theme of the place is several frames hanging from the ceiling with Masks painted in different colors. The atmosphere is pleasant and inviting.
The menu offers several dishes of the Cantonese cuisine from Dim Sam to several variations of rice and meat. The food is fresh and tasty, and being in Hong Kong, English is not a problem in most places.

Favorite Dish: We've ordered the wild rice with vegetables which was excellent, and Beef in sichuan sauce which was piquant, but a little too oily for my taste.
The Onion pies appetizers were nice to dip in the sauce of the beef sichuan and everything blended quite nicely to a spicy and refreshing flavor (Which was, honestly, far better than we expected looking at the place from outside).
