❤️ This was my first meal eating alone in Hong Kong, and I didn’t expect to hit a landmine on my first choice...

📍 Located on Portland Street between Yau Ma Tei and Wong Chuk Hang, there are plenty of seats inside.
🚗 I’m not sure if there are parking spots available nearby, but there were no street parking spots.

💬 I originally wanted to treat myself after walking the whole day in the mountains and thought I’d choose a good restaurant, but my heart was hurt by this first Hong Kong-style restaurant experience.

First of all, the staff was extremely impatient. We might have hesitated a little, but we could feel the impatience from the staff. Luckily, the staff eventually spoke Mandarin with us, and we managed to place a simple order.

Then, I noticed water dripping from the adjacent table. Although it was cordoned off, it still looked terrifying... I was afraid it would spray onto our seats.

This is when I realized that restaurants in Hong Kong don’t provide paper towels. I found that there was no tissue on the table, but fortunately, I always carry some with me; otherwise, I might have had to go to the restroom to get some.

But the worst part was that both sets of chopsticks were extremely... smelly. Even after wiping them with alcohol wipes, there was still a strong odor. This first experience was quite shocking... (shakes)

🍖 Sesame Garlic Ribs $80 Faced with the impatience of the staff, I hurriedly ordered another rib, but this rib was actually quite well-fried. Paired with sesame and plenty of minced garlic, it was delicious on its own. However, I felt pretty awkward eating the ribs with just a spoon throughout the entire meal.
The dry-fried beef rice noodle is part of the set meal ($56), which includes a drink (an extra $3 for a cold drink). The weather is too hot to drink anything warm. The portion of the stir-fried rice noodles is really large, probably more than 1.5 times the size of those in Taiwan. The taste is decent, a standard dish.
🍵 Milk tea For someone like me who doesn't usually drink sweet beverages, the milk tea is a bit too sweet. Next time, I plan to order iced lemon tea; it will be more refreshing.
