If you love Asian cuisine than Hong Kong is the place to go.
There are all sorts of restaurants in Hong Kong with some
catering more towards the tourist market and others who cater
more for the local trade, whatever restaurant you find you will
sure be in for a great meal.
While all Asian flavors are catered for in Hong Kong by far the most
popular is Cantonese, probably due to its location to China and the fact
that the bulk of Honk Kong's residents can trace their heritage back to
this region of China.
Dim Sum is popular all across Hong Kong, mainly served from around
breakfast to lunch. Dim Sum can be described as an almost never ending
parade of Hors D’Oeuvre served to your table.
All the major hotels have their own restaurants that can sometimes be a bit pricey but are
generally well worth it, If you are in a hurry there are plenty of fast
food chains everywhere like "McDonalds" and "KFC", there even is two
Chinese style fast food restaurant called "Cafe de Coral"
and "Fairwood".
The smaller Fairwood chain can be recognized by a large clown head on the
neon sign out the front and as many of Fairwwod's signs are not in
English you may have to look out for the clown. The menu will be in both
English and Cantonese, but some of the staff may not be too good with
English, so the best method would be to point out what you want. The
food at these two chain is authentic Chinese and they are really worth
experiencing this part of Hong Kong's culture. |
