Hong Kong Food



Perry, my husband, always says, "If you love to shop and eat, you will love Hong Kong." Hong Kong food is really a BIG and interesting topic for me. My family loves to eat and cook. All of us are big eaters. If you see their body size, you may notbelieve it. I always get new recipe ideas from my trips to Hong Kong.

Hong Kong food will talk to you about different kinds of food and restaurants in Hong Kong. We definitely will recommend to you some of our personal favorites. Prices will range from USD5 to ridiculously high priced. It depends on your budget. But we will try to give you as many choices as we can so that you can enjoy all the food that Hong Kong has to offer while you travel to or even live in this amazing city.

In any of the Hong Kong restaurants, a 10% service charge will be added into your bill. This goes to the restaurant, not the wait staff. If you are pleased with their service, giving a HKD20 tip will be plenty. Of course, if the dinner is for a huge table, you may need to tip more. During the Chinese New Year, the service charge may be up to 40%.
