Description
Founded by chefs Mak Kwai Pui and Leung Fai Keung, this venue focuses on traditional Hong Kong recipes without alterations. It features a notably compact menu centered on classics like rice rolls, dumplings, and sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaves. Diners should expect smaller portion sizes and mixed service speeds, but the draw remains the kitchen's signature flavors and its reputation as the world's most inexpensive Michelin-starred restaurant.
