If you long for the nostalgia of 1980s Hong Kong, there’s no better place to visit than Cha Chaan Teng 茶餐厅. With regards to food, expect tapas-style plates of Hong Kong cuisine like the har cheong tin gai, fried frog legs dressed with homemade shrimp paste and chef’s secret chilli house, or the classic crackling pork belly. As for the drinks, prepare to challenge yourself with cocktails like the “Sap Saam Mui”, where burnt claypot rice and lap cheong are unlikely bedfellows to gin, campari, and dry vermouth.
