10 BEST FOODS to eat in Hong Kong (and exactly WHERE to get them) | THE CLASSIC HONG KONG FOOD TOUR
Published 2022-05-29
Whether you're just coming to visit, or you've just moved to Hong Kong or you're moving out of Hong Kong and want to make sure you haven't left any stones unturned before you leave, this is the tour! This is what you have to eat in Hong Kong before leaving! The MUST EATS of Hong Kong. These are the most classic, well known, and famous Hong Kong dishes and foods. Make sure to try out these foods at their most famous restaurants respectively to really get in the ultimate Hong Kong food experience.
All these restaurants are super well known so don't worry if they look "off the beaten" path because they're not. Also, whoever tells you these places are hidden gems are clearly lying to you LOL English menus are available at all these places with the exception of Joy Hing so don't worry. This Hong Kong food tour is meant for you to do it yourself so it shouldn't be intimidating. This food tour is also within a small area (the more touristy areas of Hong Kong) so you'll be able to do it within a few hours though I would recommend you spilt it up before two days as there is quite a bit of food.
Once you've done this, come back and we'll go through the more hidden gems of Hong Kong but start here first so you get a basic food foundation of the flavours of Hong Kong. =) If you go straight to the hidden gems without a base, you'll won't really understand why those are hidden gems, if that makes sense.
EDIT: Just doing my tour guide training and there's a correction. Cookie crust arrived in Hong Kong in the 1940's and puff pastry in the 1950's.

I have been bringying on your videos ever since I found you last week. We are visiting Hong Kong in the summer with two teens. Since my husband left Hong Kong when he was a kid, he knew non of these places. My kids love pork belly and duck and eating in general 😂 . So, Our plan is to eat our way through Hong Kong. Thank you for all the info! Very helpful.

Thanks for sharing!! All of them look super good ❤

Thank you so much for so fluently introducing Hong Kong great food in English. I really appreciate your video.

I lived in Hong Kong for a while and worked in Central. I have been to all the places you visited and had all the foods. What I miss most is the Wonton Mein - it's the soup that makes it special. I have had it in the UK, in the US and here in the Philippines. I can get hold of Wonton Mein but it's just not the same. Chau Dofu is another street-food I get a longing for but unfortunately the best can only be found on Dundas Street, Yau Ma Tei.
-
Finally, an HK video that isn't chaotic but straight to the point and actually informational. Thank you! Subbed!
