Frommer's Review

This Hong Kong-style cafe chain, with its hip warehouse-style decor, is the city's most fashionable source of the Westernized Cantonese fare commonly found in the former British colony. All the classics are here: BBQ pork with rice, egg foo yung, beef with rice noodles, and strong milk tea made with condensed milk. There's also a selection of vaguely Western breakfast items, including peanut butter-stuffed French toast. Lines form at lunch, but the efficient staff, all equipped with SWAT-style headsets, make sure the wait is never long.
