First Hong Kong Wonton Noodle Experience

{A bowl of wonton and beef noodle soup}

Last week, I had the pleasure of having dinner with a lovely Aussie, now Hong Kong resident, who showed me many restaurants that are worth trying in this city. One of the recommended spots was Tsim Chai Kee, a Michelin Bib Gourmand-awarded restaurant located on Wellington St. in the trendy SoHo (South of Hollywood Rd.) area. After leaving from a much-needed hair appointment, I found myself walking toward the restaurant since I was hankering for something simple to eat for dinner. Although I experienced a bit of a language barrier issue when asking for a table, the subsequent meal had all but made me forget about the minor struggle. I chose the two topping option and picked wontons and beef to go on top of my choice of yellow noodles. When the steaming bowl was placed before me, and I took my first slurp of noodles and soup, I was hooked! For only $28 HKD, my meal was satisfyingly tasty and cheap! I will be making more visits to Tsim Chai Kee, for sure.
