I've ordered from LetsSweet Kitchen a handful of times now and they honestly never miss. If you're craving proper Hong Kong cafe-style food, this place is the real deal. A few standouts you have to try: The Curry Combo: This is pure nostalgia. Curry Beef Brisket over Rice: The brisket is incredibly tender and slow-cooked Braised Pork Hock over Rice read more

I was on my way to REI when I realized I hadn't eaten breakfast and was ravenous. I looked on Yelp and saw that LetsSweet Kitchen was nearby. But it was packed as it was the lunch hour, so I decided to come back after shopping. When I returned, a group had just left so I got their table. Everything on the menu looked really good. As much as I wanted to order most of their snacks, I decided on getting the chicken and pork jowl rice bowl. I also got their icey grass jelly to refresh myself from all the walking. The chicken and pork bowl was yummy! The chicken had a nice crisp from the skin. And the pork was very flavorful and slightly chewy. It came with a savory sauce that was almost like teriyaki. The grass jelly, which came with coconut milk, was truly refreshing on a sorta hot day and not too sweet. The space is small, but there are plenty of tables to accommodate parties of four. Service was quick and friendly. I need to come back here with friends so we can try multiple items off their snacks menu. read more

LetsSweet Kitchen is a Hong Kong chaan Teng restaurant in San Francisco South the market neighborhood, across the street from the Porsche dealer. We were in the area and decided to give them a try. Highly rated at 4.9 on Google, 4.7 on Yelp. The place is clean, Service, friendly and food solid. Prices are higher than Chinatown, of course. Parking is a lot easier here. If you're in the neighborhood and want some Hong Kong style Chinese food, this is a good bet. If you're intimidated by Chinatown, this is a great place to go. Food Picks: Brad beef brisket rice with four piece wonton ($22.99) is a special during lunch and includes a drink. Ample quantity and good wontons and sold braised brisket flavor. The Hong Kong milk tea was strong and not too sweet. 8.5/10 Black pepper pork chop and onion over rice ($16.85) had reasonable quantity and was cooked just fine. The sauce was on the peppery side. 8.5/10. Overall - Very Good Food - Good Decor - Very Good Service - Very Good Value - Good Would we come back - Maybe read more

TLDR: Brisket. Wonton. Fish skin. Satay beef noodle. But TBH, no fails. Authenticity where you least expect it.   Heck, their satay Beef noodle is better than authentic.   I'm almost never in this part of town, then I finally visited, and I'm hooked. My friends as well.   And you know you're getting authentic Hong Kong CCT food when you look around and there's not a single simplified Chinese character in sight, and the dedication page of the menu is written in colloquial Cantonese.   Basics: The milk tea is good and they also have yin yeung AKA coffee milk tea. Both served in the standard coffee cup of HK.   To prove the authenticity, their brisket stew that I got with their thin noodle. The large pieces of soft brisket with its melting connective tissue expressing deep notes of soy, star anise, and other warm spices. A mundane description to any of us Cantonese, yet something few know of outside our culture, and as my friend said, the best in the bay area. The only way for the brisket to get this tender flavorful throughout is hours of slow cooking on the stove, and few competitors come close, or feel as healthy. (There's another good brisket stew shop in San Bruno, but I feel guilty eating there.)   And the noodle. These aren't chowmain noodles. It's got a springy bite to it that I haven't experience in any other food.    And any time you order a noodle soup here. I fully recommend that you order their fried fish skin as well. Crispy, crunchy, delightful, and perfect for dipping in the soup and soaking up the flavor. You can enjoy them as is too of course, just that, you know, oil.   My girl wouldn't stop talking about the rice rolls in the appetizer combo, and while the entire bowl is good, and fundamental to the culture, the slipperiness of the rice roll is quite addictive.** The black pepper beef stir fried macaroni, a recent invention out of HK, was well recreated here, with lots of wok-hey. Well approved by my friend.   And in a world of abundance, the little details make a world of difference.   Their wontons, for example. Not the biggest, but the wrapper was thin, translucent, and silk. The filling was very shrimpy, with a chef's touch: powdered dried seafood. I believe it was dried and roasted flounder.* That twang made for everything. I get it as an add-on whenever I'm there now.   And to see them dressed with yellow chives in the wonton noodle soup, +100.   My phatarse couldn't hold back against trying the stuffed youtiao on one of my visits, and while the youtiao was very crispy and guilty, the masago elevated the dipping mayo and the twang of wasabi really made the day by cutting down any oil that managed to stay behind.   And then there are items that's better than authentic.  Try the satay beef noodle here, then have it again in HK. Yes, the instant ramen noodles are authentic. The rich yellow broth is not. That's not kurry, that's their satay, which is full of peanuts, and a far cry from the average diswasher-esque presentation you'll get in HK. --------- So, the big bad elephant in the room. Parking, and reasons to be in the area. For dinner at least, this is not an issue. There's usually parking across the street just outside the Trader Joe's. You could try to park upfront, but mind you, get trapped and you'll end up in Oakland.  We wouldn't want that now, would we. Don't be stupid, park across the street.  The 8, 12, 19, and 27 are blocks away. Costco is nearby, there's Sightglass, as well as (again) Trader Joe's.   * Could be dried shriimp roe though. (Japan has kazuobushi. Korea loves their dried anchovys. These and dried shriimp are our answer to Japan.)   ** No. Cantonese rice roll/豬腸粉 is nothing like Korean rice cake. It's not chewy. read more

This is such a great little Hong Kong cafe and the food really took me back to my last visit in HK. The ambiance is warm and it was really busy for dinner for a Thursday night. The service was quick and efficient! I ordered the iced HK milk tea and from the first sip I could tell this place would be good. Perfect amount of milk to tea and not too sweet :) For an appetizer I got the spicy sesame chicken or in Chinese we call it mouthwatering chicken. I do wish it was a bit spicier or numbing but the flavor was great and I enjoyed the cucumbers that were included. They provided a good contrast in texture. For the main I got the spicy Szechuan beef noodle soup with wide egg noodles and added wontons. You cannot miss the wontons here, they are big, plump, and juicy. Props to them for not skimping out on the shrimp. The wonton wrapper was also delicately thin and perfectly cooked. All signs that the kitchen knows what they're doing. Their chili crisp is good but maybe as a spicy lover I wish it was even spicier!! All and all, these might be my favorite wontons in the city thus far :) I will definitely be back! read more

Ordered takeout via uber eats and received a very sad small portion of meat. The braised beef plate looked nothing like the photos advertised. For around $20 this is absolutely not worth the price and I will not be ordering again. Food was also packaged poorly and some of the sauce was spilling out of the container. It was also cold when we received it. read more

LetsSweet Kitchen - braised beef brisket - Noodles Near Me - San Francisco, California

LetsSweet Kitchen is a cozy Cha Chaan Teng (HK cafe) cranking out some real hits (and a few misses) in a lesser traveled part of Soma. This spot is a bit tucked away from much of anything else but definitely worth checking out if you're craving solid Hong Kong comfort food. I started with the HK milk tea, which was a bit of a miss for me as I did not get near enough of that strong, tannic tea flavor I love from the real deal in HK. Maybe their other drinks are more on point, but not off to a great start. Luckily, the food immediately turned things around. The curry combo was awesome, packed with curry flavor, spicy, rich and loaded with fish balls, bean curd, and hefty chunks of daikon (maybe could've been cut smaller, but still delicious). The wonton noodle soup gets an easy A+ as the noodles had that perfect QQ bounce, the wontons were plump with shrimp and pork and sheathed in a paper thin wrapper, and the broth was mild but comforting. Add a bit of red vinegar, and it's perfect. The Tom Yum Spaghetti was a delicious fusion dish with familiar spicy, tangy and sour Tom Yum flavors and I loved the touch of cream in the sauce that added some body and let it cling to the noodles a bit better. The only real letdown was the crispy chicken cartilage as the breading was a bit too thick and the cartilage flavors and texture became a bit lost in this preparation. The plain mayo on the side was also a bit puzzling and not a great condiment (I mixed it with a little sriracha which helped, but still not great). A simple side of seasoned salt or some sort of tare would go a long way in helping the cartilage itself be the star, much the way that it is prepared at Japanese izakayas, where I am not ashamed to say I have probably eaten this dish dozens of times. Despite a couple minor misses, I felt the meal was fantastic overall. The hits were bang on, the place is clean and comfy, and the staff were super friendly. A little pricier than your average cha chaan teng, but honestly, the quality and care make it feel worth it. I'll definitely be back to try the braised beef brisket dishes and lunch specials next time! read more

Pretty authentic everyday hongkong food, which also means it's on the bland side in terms of seasoning (Cantonese food tend to go easy on seasoning and salt), some of the dishes you'd want to add more salt, or hot sauce yourself to make more flavorful. I really like that the restaurant also offers a selection of quintessential HK deserts and drinks, and its offering of dishes covers both more traditional Chinese Cantonese food, and more British influenced western style HK food. read more

LetsSweet Kitchen - Super Cart Noodles - Noodles Near Me - San Francisco, California

I'm fairly confident at this point that I can get anything on their menu and not be disappointed. Yesterday, we felt adventurous and ordered their spicy ma lat chicken and rice noodle. There are several types of rice noodles used in HK cuisine but typically mai fun (thinner) and lai fun (round, thicker, slippery). This was made with the latter, of which I'm a fan both because of its flavor and because it's fun to eat. The ma lat soup was mouth numbing but not overpowering. Chicken was tender. Great dish. We also got the pork jowl and chicken chop over rice. The pork jowl is splendid how can they make pork so tender yet flavorful? Rice is perfect. In HK culture, rice needs to be cooked to perfection, where each grain is separate (粒粒分明). That means adding too little or too much water can ruin the whole pot. The butter / condensed milk toast was divine. Service is always top notch. Place was packed again on a random Sunday morning. 生意興隆, LetSweet. It's so great to see your business flourish. read more

Impressed. Cute cafe, friendly service, and very good food at a reasonable price. Lots on the menu - you'll be annoyed about having to pick just a few things to try. Super cart noodle w braised broth and flat egg noodles - this was delicious. The fish cake was my favorite part. The beef was super flavorful. The broth was delicious without being overly salty. I was nervous about the egg (the photo on the menu shows a very hard boiled egg) but it came out perfectly gelled. Noodles have that authentic taste. Curry chicken: this is spicy!! But great flavor and perfect portion. Not too much chicken, but comes with broccoli, carrot, and potato. Can't wait to try more! read more

Milk tea and iced lemon tea were both good. The spicy beef brisket was delicious, made with tendon brisket. The lemongrass pork neck rice was great -- the pork neck was tender yet chewy. The cart noodles were tasty -- the pig intestines were very flavorful, and the dace fish balls were nice and bouncy. Only the squid was a bit disappointing as it was quite tough. No need to say much about the wontons -- they're amazing. More shrimp than pork, just the way I like it. The rice noodles were perfectly smooth. The curry beef brisket rice was unbeatable -- spicy but still rich with curry flavor Most importantly, the service was top-notch read more

Ordered Wonton Only to go. Only took 10 min. The soup was packed on the side was nice and hot. Although alittle too salty to drink on its own, was good with the wontons. The wontons had a good filling ratio with pork meat and a shrimp. Overall, I enjoyed the quick meal however, I did think the price was a little steep for 10 wontons. Although its a Wonton Only dish, maybe added 1 choy or lettuce would lighten up the dish and make the dish more worth it for me. I would come back to try other dishes but for the price, I wouldn't visit frequently. Especially since parking can be difficult. This is a good option for people working in the area. read more

I'm happy this address houses a business that aligns comfortably with the urban vibe of western SoMa. You may recall this space was previously the memorable SO, a spicy Korean spot with kickass chicken wings. More recently, it was Beyond Cafe, a Hong Kong-style noodle house specializing in braised beef noodles and soups. The Hong Kong connection is still here, but the menu broadened. There are still noodle options but also snacks, small plates, and American-originated dishes you'd expect to find in an old-school coffee shop in Hong Kong like spaghetti and pork chops. I think the locals would likely be more drawn to a diverse selection like this. Jamie W and I sure were when we walked over to have dinner here. We split three dishes each providing satisfaction to our undemanding palates. First up was the $8.50 HK Style Rice Roll, a chewy glutinous delight covered in a sweet sesame sauce (Photo 7). Then our entree arrived, the $16 Sichuan Chilled Chicken Rice, chopped pieces of skin-on poached chicken mixed in a spicy Sichuan sesame chili sauce (Photo 9). It was Hainan chicken with a kick. We ended with the $9.50 Sizzling Green Beans, a veggie side with an attitude (Photo 10). Tasty stuff. FOOD - 4 stars...true HK-style dishes like you'd find in Kowloon AMBIANCE - 4 stars...pretty much the same spacious room it was before SERVICE - 4 stars...pretty attentive TOTAL - 4 stars...hope this one sticks around for a while RELATED - Exploring western SoMa?

I love hk cafes! It's hard to find good ones in the bay. We ordered: 1. Braised beef brisket noodle ($15.50) while the soup and noodles were great, the brisket was a little chewy. Overall, it was still good though. 2. Hk meat sauce spaghetti that comes with your choice of drink ($16.99) your typical hk style spaghetti! 3. Hk style rice roll ($8.50) the rice rolls were soft and the sauce was 4. Hk milk tea ($4.50) you can't go wrong with a hk style milk tea. They ask how sweet you want the drink. Parking: Metered parking Overall, still a decent spot and we'd probably come back to try other items. read more

I came with a friend for dinner as I was craving homestyle Cantonese food and have been wanting to check out this Hong Kong diner in the neighborhood. I got the beef brisket plate which came with cabbage and white rice. While the portion was good, the flavor was a bit flat and bland. A sprinkle of white pepper helped but it felt like the sauce was missing something. The ice lemon ribena tea with blackcurrant was great and a nice tart refreshing drink. I'll have to try something else when I'm back next time but it's nice to have this family-run spot in SoMA. read more

Located in soma, LetsSweet is a cozy Cantonese spot that's great for a casual dine. I came here for dinner with a friend and we were seated in about 8 minutes since it was quite packed. Their menu consists of all the classics like wonton noodle soup, pork chop rice, & more. Plus you can choose your noodle type (flat, round, thin, or thick), which is a great customization. We ordered: * Wonton Noodle Soup : Noodles had great texture and the wontons were soft & tasty. The broth, however, was a little on the lighter side and lacked flavor. * Satay Beef Noodle Soup : This one was really good. The broth was & and flavorful, with tender, juicy beef. I chose flat noodles and they paired perfectly with the soup. Overall, it's a solid spot if you're craving comforting Cantonese dishes in the area. Parking can be tricky, but I just left my car at Trader Joe's and walked over. read more

LetsSweet Kitchen is definitely a hidden gem and it's nice that there are always an abundance of seats available. The waitresses here are always so friendly and quick to get in orders and pump dishes out. Pork jowl rice plate (5/5)- the sauce is umami and the pork jowl is extremely tender. A must get dish here! Shrimp youtiao (4.7/5) the youtiao is not overly oily and the shrimp paste in the center was delightful. The only thing I did not really care for was the sauce on the side. Shrimp wonton (4.6/5) the pork and shrimp are fresh and I love how every wonton has a piece of shrimp in it. Katsu curry (3.8/5) the curry itself is packed with flavors and is the highlight of the dish. The katsu is not the best but also not the worst I've had. I wish there was more curry. HK milk tea (5/5) delicious and not too sweet Overall great spot for HK style dishes! read more

I really wanted to like this place ... the atmosphere was cozy, and the service was good, but the Szechuan beef noodle soup I got was just mediocre. The beef was good, but the flavor was just hot ... no vegetables, no other flavors, just a lot of noodles. Maybe this was not the right dish to order ... it's more like a Hong Kong cafe. It was pretty full of cut, even though the location was kind of weird, near the highway in the city. I also got an icy grass jelly drink which was also just OK. There were a lot of grass jelly pieces left at the end which were too hard to eat with the ice, so it felt kind of bad ... read more

Their menu is quite large and portions are more than enough to share, even for a large group. But I'm not a huge fan of HK food so a lot of things we ordered weren't my favorite. I like the curry dishes and the saucy rice rolls, and that's about it. Curry has a good spice to it, and rice rolls were nice and bouncy. Fish skins, noodles, chicken cartilage, and fish balls taste pretty standard. The workers were helpful and friendly. Good to eat with a large group of people. read more

Found this spot because it had a ton of good reviews. The spot had a few tables for parties of 2-4. The staff was friendly. Ordered the satay beef noodle soup with flat noodles. The noodles were overly cooked and the beef was too chewy and had a weird texture. The broth was alright. I did like the light peanut flavor it had. I had high expectations for this place, but it was just okay. I felt sick mid meal and didn't have the appetite to finish. read more

Mom and I were around this area and saw this small restaurant that had a "soft opening" sign. We said, Let's try it. We ordered the French toast, pig feet, truffle siu mai, wonton noodle, beef brisket noodle, and milk tea. Overall, the wonton with thin noodles is the best. We love the combination of pork and whole shrimp with a thin layer wrap plus the al dente texture of the thin noodles. The beef brisket with thin noodles is pretty good too. The French toast has a lot of peanut butter in it and is perfectly fried. The truffle siu mai for me was okay. I can taste the truffle, but other than that I feel like I am eating a chewy dough with crispy skin. lol!!! The pig feet are so flavorless. I don't like the way they cook it. The milk tea is not silky, and the tea flavor is not strong enough. Customer service is great. :) read more

I feel like this location keeps changing operations and restaurant names, but the offering is somewhat the same (HK style casual dining). Came here to try their food for lunch, I ordered the braised beef with soup noodles in spicy broth -- the "mala broth" lacks depth and flavor, it tasted simply spicy, the meat was ok but on the chewier side. I did like the service though - the staff were attentive and friendly (better than most HK cafes in the US). I'll come back and try their HK milk tea next time. read more

Hot child in the city... As our adventures continued, it was definitely time for a bite to eat. This is a must try location! Let's sweet is brand new to the neighborhood, and has been opened for about six weeks and they're rolling into their soft opening, with the grand opening coming in August 2025. This is Hong Kong style at its finest. They have an amazing menu with lots of offerings, but whatever you do, the Hong Kong noodles are a must. The service is amazing. The staff is incredibly friendly and sweet. As we were seated, they brought us a nice warm glass of tea. IYKYK. If you don't, it's customary to enjoy a warm tea prior to a meal, as it is said to stimulate the appetite and make it more enjoyable. Did I mention that the serving is absolutely huge and absolutely delicious?!? The noodles and wonton wrappers are imported from Hong Kong, so that should tell you everything that you need to know. Seriously, the best noodles that you will have in the area! The noodles are springy, tasty, and light! The Hong Kong style noodles have a variety of ordering options, and we pretty much had the bowl that had everything in it. The proteins were all perfectly prepared and seasoned. Everything about this bowl screamed love, and comfort food. It's shareable, but you will want your own and should have your own! Yes, there's a possibility that you may not finish it, but what amazing leftovers. The restaurant fills up fast, and this is definitely a place to go with friends, family, and just everyone! read more

HK style milk tea - They used a particular blend which has less black tea blend and more floral/green aroma. Nonetheless, good tea. 4/5. Portuguese egg tart - the egg custard was good. Not too sweet and definitely buttery but the bottom crust was soft/soggy. 敗筆. It's not bad, but the crust needs to improve. Wonton noodle - I came here for that and didn't disappoint. I recently went to 麥奀記 in Vancouver. I'll say the wonton still better at 麥奀記, but Letssweet noodle beats them. As usual, I always eat the noodle first before it get soggy. And it didn't. Normally, it get soggy after 5 minutes. I was pleased the texture remain 彈牙. The wonton would benefit with a better brands of 大地魚粉and more 麻油 to marinate. But all in all, it's satisfying. Cart noodle - The soup is good. I would prefer more 腩汁. Fish cake is great. Beef ball was excellent. Great taste, great texture. Honestly, I missed beyond's 炸墨魚餅. They could consider adding 墨魚丸. There is a brand out there that's pretty good quality. The thick noodle also have good texture. read more

Across the street from Trader Joe's I'm so excited to have found this place as I always felt the area needed more Asian food. Came in around 7 on Saturday and lucky snagged one of the last open tables. Honestly had so many things I wanted to try but realistically my stomach can only fit so much. Beef curry and rice was very good, came out hot and flavorful. The carrots were so sweet and ended up being the star of the dish. The menu shows two chilis and I would warn you to say that I found it pretty spicy. I liked that though so to each their own. Chicken and egg teriyaki was also very delicious. The chicken was still crispy under the egg that truly impressed me. The sauce is nicely sweet and they didn't over do it. I overheard someone say they've been going 3 times a week for a couple months. That made me giggle and I wasn't surprised. I'm excited to come back to try the soups and other dishes! Good service and very homey :) read more

This is my first time coming. I'm a Hongkonger and I can testify that their foods are authentic. Must try satay beef instant noodle: their sauce is thick enough not to get diluted in the soup. Beef is tender and the taste is exactly like the one sold in HK. I don't need to go down to LA for the satay beef instant noodle anymore. Their wonton noodle soup is great with big chunks of shrimp in the wonton. We also tried the fried chicken wings (all flat with no drumstick) and French toast. They're both tasty. read more

We aren't normally in this part of town, unless we're shopping at Costco on 10th, but decided to trek over just to give this place a try. We've been looking for a good HK noodle soup spot and I think we've found it! Even though this area doesn't have a lot of restaurants or shopping, it was quite busy on a Monday afternoon. It's a Hong Kong style cafe with a decent amount of seating. While looking at the menu, a few things caught my eye. ***OUR PICKS*** BRAISED BEEF BRISKET ~ This came with a noodle option. I chose flat egg noodles. To my surprise, the noodles were done perfectly! Finally, a restaurant that knows how to blanch their noodles to prevent overcooking after it goes into the hot soup. Brisket was good, but I wish they had some tendon in it as well. 4.5/5 CURRY BRAISED BEEF THIN EGG NOODLES ~ My bf wanted braised beef as well, but didn't want to get the same thing, so he opted for curry. He enjoyed the texture of his egg noodles too! Strangely, the yellow curry sauce made his noodles turn pinkish red. I'm not sure if there was chili oil in the curry, but it somehow made his noodles change colors. It's a bit odd, but it didn't taste weird. Still, it was a good meal. 4/5 PORTUGUESE EGG TARTS ~ Ahh, flakey crust with so many buttery layers! Though I'm partial to regular egg tarts, these were very good. The custard is a bit more dense, so it's not as smooth, but that's how it's supposed to be. 5/5 STRAWBERRY PANNA COTTA ~ A lightly sweetened dessert with strawberry compote. It's like a soft vanilla-flavored jello, if you've never had panna cotta before. I liked this one a lot! 5/5 We'll definitely be back to try other things, especially if we're going to do a shopping run at Costco! read more

I've long wanted to dine here, actually prior to this business becoming this. My history here dates to when that prominent Sunset District dry fried chicken wing place had an offshoot spot here (miss you James). The next business here was one of a similar ilk being a restaurant known for their HK style wonton and noodle dishes. I was able to try some of their enjoyable food, getting them from Neon. A friend and I decided to find a place to enjoy a weeknight dinner before going to Chase Center to catch a Warriors' game. We arrived shortly after their 5 pm open time and chose a table along the far left wall. A young gal from us menus and later glasses and a carafe of cold water as requested. Seeing the theme of the menu which aligns with the previous business, I started with a HK milk tea, cold large (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=85nTRzZjLsDmqW5MYa_wzg); I was a bit surprised that this came in a bottle and not served in a cup with ice. Do ask for a glass of ice if you prefer it ice cold. My friend suggested sharing two items so we started with the curry beef brisket rice plate (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=8pEXr2TVKDfUQyn3rH4m6A); described as comforting curry delight. I liked the plating as it made our sharing easier. The portion size was perfect as I had a portion and a half. The curry was slightly spicy with the broccoli and carrot pieces giving a flavor and texture change. The brisket pieces were tender and stewed in a likely five spice broth. Just don't expect any tendon, fatty pieces, or some lining to give it some chew. The other dish we shared was the super cart noodles (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=TGHClzKXaS7qfrRIbEQCMw); braised beef brisket, egg, radish, fried fish ball, beef ball, fish cake, & lettuce. In choosing our noodles, we entrusted our waitress' advice in going with the thin egg noodles (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&select=HlnFQiskZn4AeF02UrbUlQ). Again, using provided sharing bowls, the portion was enough for each of us to have two bowls plus. The interesting part is the variety of ingredients in the meal as I remember the "true" or authentic version normally has pork blood and tendon or offal meat pieces in this. The mix of ingredients is interesting and diverse, a cleaner take on this HK street food classic. The service was standard as everything we needed was provided. We had a water carafe so no table service was needed until we finished our meal. My friend generously paid for the meal so I didn't catch our server's name. Before leaving, I walked to the cashier counter as my friend paid and asked they were related to their predecessor here and she said no. I look forward to trying other menu items on a future visit as many western style Hong Kong dishes are available here. read more
