Ho Hung Kee (Causeway Bay)
No discussion about Hong Kong’s historic noodle shops would be complete without mentioning Ho Hung Kee, an authentic Hong Kong-style congee and noodle shop, which originally opened in Wan Chai in the 1940s and is famed for its springy wonton noodles and fresh, sweet soup. Some highlights from the restaurant's menu include the stir-fried beef noodles, shrimp pomelo skin and wonton noodles.

UNDERSTANDING THE MICHELIN AWARDS
STAR: Coveted by many chefs but bestowed upon only to an excellent few. Getting a star (or three) could change the fate of a restaurant.
BIB GOURMAND: Good quality, good value cooking.
Not quite a star, but most definitely not a consolation prize, the Bib Gourmand is a just-as-esteemed rating that recognizes friendly establishments that serve good food at moderate prices.
PLATE: Fresh ingredients, carefully prepared: a good meal.
In 2016 a brand new L’assiette or The Plate symbol was launched to recognize restaurants that 'simply serve good food'.
