jdc115 0 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Zhengzhou china: Not to my liking... Uno's in Toa Payoh If you custom order your steak, it is quite nice. Normally it comes on a hotplate with gravy on top. Ask them for it to be on a normal plate without the gravy and then the steak is quite good. Much better then some restaurants where I have paid 2 or 3 times the price. Plus you can bring your own wine withut a corkage and they have glasses for you Not good picture of the food, but I love this place. It is a Laksa Steamboat restaurant, San Katong Laksa Steamboat Restaurant (Telok Blangah) Wine corkage is $10 per bottle Breakfast in Kyoto traditional hotel: And the best food, my own cooking: Link to post Share on other sites
ysl 0 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Ah... Mak noodles. No nonsense , no fancy crap, good old HK street food. It is indeed very good. Served hot, best slurp them up within few minutes for best taste. Link to post Share on other sites
watchdog 19 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Last Friday we went to Hong Kong for food & shopping ... tried this famous Mak's noodle at 77 Wellington St, Central. Wanton noodle at HKD 35. per bowl, pretty ex. Right across the street, this Tsim Chai Kee noodle shop sell almost same types of noodle and it's double portion at HKD19 per bowl ! That's co-incidental. I had a bowl of noodles at Tsim Chai Kee on Sunday. I think Mak's noodle is overrated and overpriced in comparison. On Monday, my colleagues brought me to Kau Kee, at Gough Street to eat beef brisket noodles. Really yummy ! Link to post Share on other sites

homersimpson 0 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 My wife and daughter going to Hong Kong for first time in Nov. Can recommend good and cheap food places (typical Singaporean lah) Also for shopping. I was there about 7 years ago for business and stayed at Tsim Tsa Shui but ate in restaurants. Company paid. But this time it is private for them. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
etnt 1 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 you can refer to openrice http://www.openrice.com/restaurant/index.htm for starters, but probably can elaborate on the kind of food you prefer and which parts you'll be travelling to to narrow down on recommendations.

Tsim Chai Kee (Wellington Street, Central) - Wanton noodles 2. Kau Kee (Gough Street, Central) - Beef brisket noodle 3. Spring Deer restaurant (Mody Street, TST) - Please make advanced reservations - Peking Duck 4. Lan Fong Yuen (This is Cha Chan Teng)(Gage Street, Central) - Pork chop bun, milk tea and various type of instant noodles 5.

Lin Hueng teahouse (Wellington Street, Central) - Tim Sum - Organised chaos 2. Mido Cafe (Temple Street, near Yau Ma Tei) - Typical Cha Chan Teng food and backdrop for many movies and serials.
