The French toast has a crispy outer layer, with a mix of savory and sweet flavors, similar to a soufflé, and is perfect even without peanut butter. The whipped egg and fresh milk has a smooth texture but is on the sweeter side. The iced milk tea has a strong tea flavor, with moderate sweetness. The double egg French toast with cream is smooth, while the iced lemon tea has a bitter lemon taste that pairs well with black tea. The apricot juice steamed egg is as smooth as tofu pudding, and its sweetness can be adjusted.
The restaurant has a relaxed atmosphere, making it suitable to enjoy alongside nearby dining options, with flexible operating hours. The dining space is not large, but it has the ambiance of old Hong Kong films, ideal for experiencing local tea culture. The charm of an old-fashioned tea restaurant is strong and rhythmic.
The service efficiency is high, and the staff are polite. They only accept cash payments, which allows for a smooth dining experience for customers. The service is not particularly friendly, but there is an interesting sense of efficiency.
This place is the Australia Dairy Company in Hong Kong.
It's very famous and really draws in a lot of people.
As soon as you enter, you need to quickly and decisively place your order—there isn’t much time to hesitate.
Before we could even settle down, the staff was already urging us to order.
There’s this feeling of “you can eat here, but please hurry.”
But it’s precisely this sense of efficiency that makes it quite interesting.
This time we ordered three items:
French Toast
The thick slices of toast are fried to a golden crisp, with a slab of ice-cold butter in the middle.
As soon as it arrives on the table, it starts to melt, paired with syrup from the table.
Every bite is a mix of sweetness, oiliness, and crispiness—it's packed with calories but extremely delicious.
The outer layer is crispy, while the inside retains the fluffiness of the toast.
If you eat this when you’re hungry, you’ll definitely keep going without stopping.
Almond Juice Steamed Egg
I was a bit worried that the almond flavor might be too strong, but this was just right.
The texture is as smooth as tofu pudding, but even more delicate.
You can adjust the sweetness with syrup, so it’s not overly sweet.
After eating, there's a lingering subtle almond fragrance in your mouth—surprisingly ordinary.
Dantou Coffee
This is coffee, not milk tea; the flavor is quite strong.
The bitterness is noticeable but smooth, with very little sweetness.
Drinking it immediately wakes you up.
It goes perfectly with the dessert, cutting down the sweetness in your mouth a bit.
This is the charm of an old-school tea restaurant.
The service isn’t particularly warm, but it’s not rude either.
The overall vibe is one of: eat and go, with a high table turnover rate.
Some places are just like this—not particularly comfortable, but very Hong Kong.
After finishing claypot rice with friends, we came to pay a visit to this shop. The crowd is no longer as large as it used to be, and the staff are relatively polite, not as direct as before.
I personally enjoy cheese-based dishes, so besides the iced lemon tea that is a must-have when in Hong Kong, I also had steamed milk. The flavor of the steamed milk was quite good, with a hint of sweetness from the milk; however, the best one I’ve had so far is still the coconut steamed milk from Lin Heung Tea House, which is served in a coconut shell with coconut meat, complementing each other nicely for a mixed tasting experience.
The iced lemon tea was of average quality, with a bit of bitterness from the lemon, but it paired well with the black tea. My friend ordered the double egg French toast, which was also delicious with butter, and it really makes for a suitable breakfast.
Overall, although the dining space isn't large, it has the ambiance of the old-school Hong Kong films. If you enjoy a local tea-drinking experience in Hong Kong, it’s worth a try here, but I wouldn't recommend it if you have to wait in line, as there are other places that serve equally delicious food.
📍 Jordan, Hong Kong
Recommended must-visit Hong Kong-style breakfast place 🇭🇰
Every time I come to Hong Kong, this is a place I have to visit. Personally, I prefer this Australian beef joint over Yee Shun!
After having dinner at the neighboring Mak Man Kee on Wednesday night, I still felt a bit unsatisfied, only to discover there was no need to queue! I immediately went next door to the Australian beef joint for dessert 🫶🏻 I highly recommend pairing these two places together.

Menu Items
🍞 French Toast ($32):
This time at the Australian beef place, I didn't order the usual breakfast or tea set combo.
When the seemingly plain French toast was served, I was pleasantly surprised 🫶🏻
This was my first time experiencing thick sliced toast, simply fried with egg batter instead of the usual thin slices filled with peanut butter.
The toast seemed to soak in the egg for a long time, and the frying was perfectly timed. They topped it off with a thick slice of butter and drizzled honey on it.
The texture upon biting into it is quite similar to a soufflé! It has a sweet and savory flavor; who knew that a French toast without peanut butter could be this perfect!
🥚 Egg White Steamed Milk (Cold) ($35):
The signature dish at the Australian beef joint!
This was my first time trying the steamed milk. It tasted quite like a sweeter version of custard. Although the texture is very smooth, it felt a bit too sweet when cold, not really to my liking.
🥤 Iced Milk Tea ($26):
Strong tea flavor
I ordered the less sweet version, and it was just right and delicious.
🍄
Will I revisit: Yes!

Note:
🔸 Cash only 💰
✨French toast HK$30
Dip both sides of the toast with egg liquid and fry it, add butter and drizzle with honey. When you bite into it, the outside is crispy and the salty and sweet tastes are intertwined, but it becomes a bit greasy after eating it for a long time.
✨Cold protein stewed with fresh milk HK$33
It tastes like thinner cheese, with a smooth and creamy texture and a high sweetness. It is recommended that two people eat it together, otherwise it will be easy to get tired of it.
✨Egg sandwich HK$22 Baked base+HK$2
The scrambled eggs are soft and dense, without any extra seasoning or ingredients. The toast is crispy after baking, and coupled with the dense texture of the tender eggs, the simple taste is a dish that must appear on every table. It is highly recommended.

The business hours start at 7:30 in the morning. You need to queue up during dining time but the tables are turned over very quickly. Only cash payment is accepted.
