"A small daytime spot inspired by Hong Kong and Taiwanese cafes, offering an affordable, tightly focused menu crafted by a consulting chef: braised pork belly rice, Chiayi chicken rice, and cold sesame noodles all priced at about $12 or less. The pastry program includes Hong Kong–style sweets such as pineapple buns and egg tarts, and drinks highlight Hong Kong milk tea and iced tea to round out a satisfying lunch." - Rebecca Roland
