The 38 Best Restaurants in Hong Kong | Eater
"Locals love cha chaan teng food, a uniquely Hong Kong cuisine that mostly consists of pseudo‐Western concoctions like macaroni with ham in soup; deep‐fried peanut butter sandwiches known as “French” toast; and sweetened condensed milk poured over red bean paste and a compressed ball of shaved ice, a concoction that’s halfway between a dessert and a beverage. Hoi On was once the cha chaan teng of choice for sailors docking at the nearby ports. Several years ago the owner’s daughter gave the place a good scrub, and, to bring back its former glory, hired new staff — including bakers to make their famous coconut tarts.
