Yum Cha serves traditional Chinese dishes and dim sum with a modern twist. The food is infused with a hint of playfulness, while maintaining authentic flavors and the original essence of each dish. Fresh and quality ingredients are used, with no added MSG.

Yum Cha now has four branches across town such is its popularity. The restaurant’s vomiting custard buns are a constant on Hong Kong Instagram feeds and the Doggy Sausage Rolls and BBQ Piggy Buns are almost too adorable to eat.

One of the most representative restaurants in Sham Shui Po District, Wai Kee’s iconic Pork Liver and Beef Noodle will never let you down. Its pig’s liver noodles, might not sound the most appealing, but locals and tourists alike make the journey to Sham Shui Po for this unique dish. If liver is not to your taste, you can also choose beef, ham, egg or sausage. If you fancy something sweeter, be sure to go for the kaya French toast.

Signature dishes include Kaya French Toast Pig Liver & Beef Noodles.

Man Kee Cart Noodles is so popular that it boasts three outlets on the same block – all of which are constantly packed with diners. The eatery offers a diverse selection of noodle types, soup bases and ingredients that are all prepared fresh to order. Try the chu hou beef brisket and Swiss chicken wings, as well as the special chilli sauce, which is made in-house. These items are so tasty, they’re recommended even in Michelin’s street food guide from 2018 to 2020.

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'.

One of the 'Sham Shui Po Best 3', Lau Sam Kee must-try dishes include Shrimp Roe and Beef Stomach, and the Pickled Radish on the table is an unforgettable side dish.

Founded more than 60 years ago, this old-school restaurant still makes its noodles from scratch – a real rarity in Hong Kong. Second-generation owner, Lau Fat-cheong, carries on the family tradition of kneading dough with a heavy bamboo pole to create a firmer and more textured noodle. The restaurant’s lo mein (dry noodles) are a must-try, and are famously served with a massive portion of dried shrimp roe to give them a huge umami punch.

Signature dishes include Shrimp Lo Mein, Wonton noodles, Tossed Noodles with Dry Shrimp roe or Pork Knuckle.
