The 17 Best Restaurants In San Francisco’s Chinatown - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"Despite its prime location on one of Chinatown’s main drags, it’s easy to accidentally walk past the small entrance to Hong Kong Clay Pot Restaurant. But walk up the stairs of this homey Cantonese spot into their fully carpeted and simply decorated space (think white walls with some red lanterns and watercolor paintings) and prepare to enjoy a massive meal of Hong Kong-style clay pot dishes. The menu is long and has some heavy hitters throughout, but sticking to the clay pot dishes will be your best bet. Get the eggplant with garlic and ginger that’s cooked to the point where it gives a satisfying bite while still being soft and juicy and try the dried bean curd with duck for a saucy delight. We recommend you pull up with the entire group chat and order like it’s your last meal—it’s easy when most of the clay pots run under $15." - julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez, lani conway, patrick wong
