“ Noodles weee cooked perfectly not too soft. Love it. The drink was the perfect sweetness. Definitely go back. ”
“ Simply impeccable. One of my favorites since years already. Hong Kong cafe classics like HK French toast or coffee milk tea, as delicious and authentic as it gets. Genuine old school atmosphere, relaxed and comfortable. Superb. ”
“ Saved this place to try when in Hong Kong, definitely a traditional cha Chang teng. Old school settings and atmosphere. Menu was all chinese, but they do have English menu, just need to ask ( we can not read Chinese, so definitely helpful to have a English menu.) Food was simple but delicious. We got 1. Satay beef noodle 2. Peanut butter and condensed milk bread. 3. Hot ovatine 4. Cold milk tea Bread is so fluffy! So many bread options so delicious. Noodles also not soggy, made well. Will come again for more bread options and brunch food! ”
“ Nice place. Wasn't expecting too much from a cheaper, more casual place so I'd say they met my expectations. Everything was good but not spectacular. Would get the coffee milk tea again. Would pass on the French toast if I could go back. The servers were friendly. ”
“ Very cozy local café, nice place for a quiet homey breakfast. I got the french toast (which I can't stop thinking about) and the iced milk tea with coffee. They make their own tea blend, so the flavour was unique and probably my favourite milk tea in HK so far. ”
“ Milk tea was really great. One of those places that you go for the nostalgia more than the food and drinks. ”
“ A long-standing Hong Kong-style cha chan teng or cafe offering sandwiches, toast, noodles local and snacks. An easy venue for some iconic local food & drinks at a reasonable price. It was about HkD49 per person. Service was basic, and staff was mostly friendly and accommodating. The interior and utensils were a bit old. ”
“ The food is fantastic, and the milk tea is comforting. Recommended for tourists who would like to try Chinese cuisine. ”
