We came here as was close to our lodging. They serve a variety of breakfast options eastern and western but I chose congee.
In particular, I chose the Fish and Minced Beef Congee. Bottom line, this was the best I ever had. It was the right consistency, steaming hot, with just the right amount of flavor with the fish adding some roughness and the minced beef making it that much more smooth and savory. The cruller was fantastic, crunchy on the outside and airy on the inside and when dipped in the congee, the congree brought out the savoriness and sweetness of the cruller. The congee and cruller combined creates a synergy of taste each alone cannot. This is reason to live in Hong Kong.
We returned here 3 times. The Fish and Lean Pork Congee I had in a subsequent return wasn’t quite as tasty.
Cost: $24 HK or about $3 US. Super cheap for this high quality tasting food! I want this in my neighborhood.
5/28/17 9:26 AM, It wasn't as good as the first time. The quality and/or cook has slipped.
