Capital Cafe

Located on Heard Street, it is tucked in an alley, not very prominent unless you walk in and look up at the signages. To be very clear, the baked goods like the Bolo Buns and other pastries are halal certified - comes with cert and all. The menu however IS NOT HALAL. It is also under the famous Chrisly Cafe (staffs are wearing the tshirts). It is your typical Char Chan Teng vibe which I love, super HK vibe. In my opinion, the milk tea isn't that great, I'm sure there are many other nice milk tea around HK. Bolo Buns come with a very thick cut of cold aalred butter so if you're a butter girl like me, u will love it. Sunny side ups are PERFECTLY cooked and I also had the scrambled egg sandwich and OMG the egg cooking skills y'all... it was perfection. But shout-out to the service crews, very friendly bunch, make u feel very comfortable.

Very crowded, came around 9.45am on a Friday. Service is fast, got seat after 1 minute of waiting but not so friendly staff. Maybe it's just how the hong Kong people speak. Everywhere in Hong Kong I noticed people do not speak nicely. They will shout at each other. Ordered french toast and scrambled egg. Super filling though. Food taste is so so. The milk tea is creamy and has a bitter aftertaste but not the best I have tasted. For payment cannot use visa only american express and cash. Can use octopus card though. Spent about 134 hkd there

Great stop to try some local Hong Kong style breakfast. We had the fixed breakfast menu for 42 Hong Kong dollars which included Hong Kong style milk tea, scrambled egg, toast, macaroni and ham. We also ordered the pineapple bun to try. The food was very nice, service was quick and polite.

Very good!! It’s incredibly delicious! Pineapple bun and milk tea are our favorite breakfast. We came back here several times during our trip to Hong Kong. Food is delivered within minutes, even during rush hour.

Nice chill place. The eggs on the bread is wholesome and filling. Some of the photos posted here is the wrong store front. This store is along the side of Heard St, Wan Chai

TLDR: pretty average Cantonese breakfast, best thing was the scrambled egg. I had the pineapple bun with butter and it didn’t seem very fresh, the top wasn’t even crunchy. The milk tea was average, not really a strong creaminess as it should have. The scrambled egg was top notch though and went well with the toast.

Had breakfast here and was really impressed with the food—everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The scramble egg was especially good, with great flavors and just the right texture. The service was decent. Overall, a solid spot for a good breakfast, and I’d definitely come back one day

Good spot to get breakfast. Runny eggs are perfectly done and additional spices/seasonings/chili oil are available. Lemon tea is good as well. Food is slightly more expensive than some nearby options but the cafe remains a good spot nonetheless.

Excellent cha chaan tang in wan chai. Good thing we got here before the noon time rush because the line got intense real quick. Quick service. Great value. Be prepared to place your order real quick and move along. This isn't the type of establishment to sit back & enjoy your meal. I love the entertainment memorabilia decor

Truffle scrambled eggs are amazingly good, we came back for seconds. Their macaroni and ham is a Hong Kong staple, but it's weird... Macaroni noodles with slices of ham on it, all sitting in a chicken broth... I really don't get it. So if you go, I suggest trying them both since they're both popular breakfast items in Hong Kong, but come back for the truffle scrambled eggs.

Ok peeps, time to get my breakfast on! I had to try the scrambled eggs on toast and HK milk tea sometime during my trip and today was the day! I opted for the truffle scrambled eggs because... why the eff not?! I'm glad I did even though it was double the price of the non truffle, my dish was way bigger in portion than the regular one. Fluffy eggs where like the the softest sheets, covering my toasted from edge to edge and stacked high, might I add. Could I taste the black truffle?? Not necessarily but I'm glad I got to try it. As promised by everyone, my eggs were fluffy as shiiiiit! Light yet creamy and everything in between! The toast was thick and had just the right amount of crunch but still managed to stay fluffy inside! Milk tea was good. I was expecting it with more almond taste to it but I guess that was just me. It was delicious though. Just the perfect drink to wash everything down.

My very first HK Cafe experience and it did not disappoint! I was debating whether to come here or to Australian Dairy Company for soft scrambled eggs and decided here since it was closer to our hotel. No lie, my family had a hard time finding this place using Google Maps and Yelp BUT if you just look up at the signs you'll see it... LOL. Oops. We only had to wait 3 minutes to be seated but inside was PACKED. We has to squeeze in between 2 other parties (everyone is each others elbow space). If you don't read Chinese you can ask for their English menu (that's what we did). We ended up ordered 2 scrambled eggs on toast, 1 scrambled egg topped with black truffle on toast, 1 kaya coconut jam toast, 3 HK milk teas (hot), and a purple sweet potato & red bean drink. The soft scrambled eggs on that light, fluffy, and airy toast was amaaaazing! Never have I had eggs like that before. I believe they use Hokkaido milk? The truffle was OK... I feel like it didn't make THAT big of a difference. My whole family liked those eggs. The Kaya Coconut Jam Toast was pretty good. The same toast just topped with a thin-ish layer of sweet Singaporean jam. The HK milk tea was good. I don't think i'm a huge fan of milk tea made using condensed milk though. My dad really like it! And lastly, the sweet potato drink with red bean. It was good but mostly ice and red bean. Interesting to try but probably wouldn't recommend it. As for service, it's fast and efficient. Not a rude as I heard Australian Dairy Company is. You don't feel super rushed but I would't take my sweet sweet time since there is a line of people waiting outside to dine too. By the time we left the line went past 2 neighboring buildings. That's how you know a place is good and popular with the locals. Bottom line, get the scrambled eggs on toast. I might want to go back again one more time before I leave HK :)

I meannnn can we talk about the truffle scrambled egg toast?! It was SO good that we had it for breakfast two days in a row. Yup, it's that good. Both times were take out. They're SUPER fast about churning these out. Seems just as quick whether you're sitting in there or getting it to go. The truffle egg toast is about $7USD, and worth it. The eggs are perfectly scrambled and seasoned. The toast gives the gooey topping a good, sturdy base. The truffle sprinkled on top gives it a nice kick of extra flavor. Would 1000% recommend checking this spot out. It was very, very yummy. 5 stars!

Can't beat that breakfast combo set. For $34 HKD (currently $5.40 USD), i had a coffee, toast, 2 scrambled eggs and macaroni soup with ham. Love how they make their scrambled eggs at these cafes. It's soft and super scrambled, just the way it should be cooked. The toast drizzled with condensed milk and peanut butter is an indulgence. It's sweet and sugar overload with some iced HK milk tea. Too good. They had an English menu and our waiter had an easy conversation with us in English. Phew!

Fluffy scrambled egg sandwich with ham between white bread. Classic. Iced HK milk tea. Favorite. Bread bun with butter and condensed milk. Guilty pleasure. Sitting with strangers at the same table and have awkward silences while you all wait for your food. HK.

Classic HK Cafe. Cash only, order the scrambled eggs with truffle and toast. The eggs were smooth and silky - the truffle taste is subtle, but your not paying top dollar so just enjoy! Add some HK milk tea to that and you are good to go. The spot is cash-only.. if you forget to bring cash - it's hong kong so walk 1 block in any direction and you will find a mall with ATMs.

If one want to experience how a "real" Hong Kong Style Cafe the way it is, Capital Cafe 華星冰室 may worth trying. Small tiny tables that you need to share with other patrons. Cocky waitstaff who is efficient and friendly with a degree of sarcasm. Cheap fast comfort food. I just could not stop smiling listening to these waiters cracking silly jokes and comments within themselves. They even talks to customers with this friendly tone with a degree of sarcasm. Customer service one might not use to if you have been living overseas for awhile. Even after 9:30 am the place was packed. But the turnover was really fast and I was in and out within 20 minute. Come here for the experience and of course try the scrambled eggs which is so soft and fluffy.Milk tea still served in the traditional HK style tea cups. You won't regret that.

We went to Capital Café based on the recommendations of the nice ladies at Mee Wah Bakery. We walked in to buy some pineapple cakes and almond cookies to bring home and my mom stopped to have a chat with the ladies working in the store. They pointed us to Capital Café (since I had left my list at home!!) and we weren't disappointed. I had the scrambled eggs with ham on toast along with a Hong Kong Milk Tea. Boy, I wish all the scrambled egg toasts in NYC were like this! The eggs were so smooth and silky and the toast was thick-cut and buttery. I could eat this all day! It was also so amazing to finally have a real, legitimate Hong Kong Milk Tea - it's even better than anything in NYC.

If I could eat at Capital Cafe every morning, I probably would. My first time visiting was yesterday morning around 10am and I waited on line for about 30 minutes. My mom and I were seated at a 4 person booth table across from two sweet girls from Taiwan. Loved that we were seated with strangers to and that the restaurant maximized their space (as so many people were waiting in line). I order a cold Hong Kong milk tea and the truffle scrambled eggs on toast. I usually do not care for eggs/breakfast food, but I absolutely LOVED it. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the truffle is a nice touch/not too over powering. We also ordered the principal toast to share, which was AMAZING! It was truffle and cheese melted on toast. There's about a 30 minute wait, but SO worth it. Capital Cafe cannot be missed. I've now been two days in a row and I'm probably going back again tomorrow morning before leaving Hong Kong.

Typical HK cafe with the best eggs ever!!!! Must try. We always went early morning to grab the morning set under 45HK$. Everything is served so fast and fresh.

I had just gotten to Hong Kong after a pretty tumultuous journey and wanted something quick and easy for dinner. After a bit of wandering, we wound up at Capital Cafe. We were standing outside trying to decipher to non-English menu when an employee made his way over and happily retrieved us an English menu. It's hard to say no to a meal somewhere if a person is that helpful and accommodating. We wound up ordering a couple of sandwiches. Our first sandwich was a beef satay concoction. The oddly sweet bread was a little distracting at first but it wound up complementing the savory, meaty filling inside. The second sandwich was referred to as a Devil's Submarine, and it essentially wound up being a hot dog sliced in half and served with a very tasty sauce. It's a weird little 'wich that actually worked really well. The snap of the hot dog and the zing of the sauce complemented each other quite nicely.

This place is a classic. I came in just after opening and was seated pretty quickly for a table for 2. Its a fast paced and relatively cramped place, so it'd be helpful not to bring too much stuff. The wait may seem long, but everyone is trying to eat and get out asap, so it goes by pretty quickly. This place is not made for groups. I saw a group of 8 come in and they only had 6 available seats, so they sat 6 people first, and 2 people had to stand around awkwardly waiting for people at the book ends to finish before they could get the remaining 2 seats. The table situation is not the best, but its' HK, so you learn to live with it. The waitstaff are efficient but also a bit arrogant. Again, its very HK. The food is why you're here tho. The scrambled eggs are smooth and creamy and goes well with the white bread toast. I could eat that everyday. The milk tea was also very smooth and rich as well. Its definitely a dream breakfast for me. The eggs are what you came here for. I did not see many tables without it. Would eat here everyday if I could.

I preferred Kam Fung (also in Wan Chai) in terms of HK breakfasts. The service is friendlier there and the food is slightly better. Maybe I'm just not a fan of the style of scrambled eggs served in these breakfast spots (too slimy and moist for my taste, something about it gives me the heebie-jeebies). The French toast was better, very eggy as well but great with the syrup they provided. Milk teas tied it all together well. These places have so many options that I'm sure I could find something I like, if I were to return.

If you're seeking a western breakfast in Hong Kong this is... ok. Of course during the corona virus scam/scare the body language of Hong Kongers is to get westerners in and out asap to avoid contagions. Or so I'm told! for about $48 HKD I enjoyed sausage (a hot dog), a couple scrambled eggs, one small cup of black coffee, some Van De Kamp pork and beans, and a half piece of toast. So, let's call is $7.25. btw: tipping is considered rude, so this was the full price. I went back several times as I was staying close by and it was good enough.

My local friends recommended this cafe for breakfast, and we were not disappointed. This HK cafe is owned by a celebrity and apparently lots of local celebrities dine there (though we didn't see any haha!) My party arrived on a weekday at 11.30AM, and there were plenty of seats. It quickly got crowded, though, and the place was full by 12PM. It may be good to decide what you want to get even before going, especially if it's your first time and if you don't really speak Cantonese. When it gets busy, the staff may be a little annoyed if you take too long. But honestly, compared to other HK cafes we have been to, the service here is already comparatively good. We got the breakfast set which consists of ham macaroni, eggs and buttered toast and a drink. (34 HKD) You get to choose either sunny side-up eggs (jian dan) or scrambled eggs (chao dan). We opted for scrambled eggs, and made sure to say the order correctly because the last time we went to a cafe, we didn't get our scrambled eggs because we didn't know how they referred to their eggs as.. Cold drinks are an additional 2 HKD. I had the iced milk tea, but it was tooooo sweet for my liking. Hot drinks come unsweetened, so it may be better to control the sweetness for those who are concerned. The buttered toast and eggs are awesome! The eggs are watery the way I like it, I guess with milk added? But they didn't taste too milky. I only had my toast after it got cold but it was still crunchy and pretty good. Must've been much better when it was freshly served. Ham macaroni was not bad, a little on the salty side but the broth tasted a lot like Campbell chicken soup which is sort of my comfort food. 34 HKD for a whole breakfast set is such a steal! I wish I had tried the headmaster toast, though.

I discovered this place mainly by coincidence. I saw someone on instagram posted a picture of their scrambled eggs with black truffle and I said... I want that! So I came here twice during my nine day stay in HK. I love this place. It's a HK café style that serves up really good café style food. Their scrambled eggs are oh so heavenly. Creamy, smooth, silky, creamy... my kids loved it. The black truffle added a nice pungency to it but it wasn't too overpowering. I also had their fried pork chop bun - perfectly fried pork chop that still retained its moisture, and they added wasabi mayo to it that gave it a nice kick. Another local favorite is the condensed milk bun - essentially a toasted bun with butter and condensed milk slather allover it. Sounds simple, and yes you can easily make it at home, but it's just so good! Prices are fair, service was really good - I would definitely come back over and over again.

I wanted the full HK experience and what better place to start than at a cha chaan teng or literally translated as "tea restaurant" that serves a mixture of Hong Kong local and Western cuisine. Surprisingly we had to wait in line, though it moved quite fast. It was quite crammed inside, we shared tables with this couple that looked very uncomfortable, probably because we sat directly in front of them, double date style. I was accustomed to table sharing at this point so it didn't bother me. I went for the classic scrambled egg, toast, macaroni soup, and milk tea to see what the fuss is about. Boy, it was insanely delicious! Eggy, fluffy, creamy, tasty, heavenly even! Completely took me by surprise because I never expected simple scrambled eggs can be this good. It complements the large fluffy toast and creamy milk tea perfectly, just perfectly. The macaroni soup with ham, however, I'm not crazy about, the macaroni itself tasted very bland and there was not anything special about the chicken-based soup either. Meh. What a hearty breakfast, I can eat it almost every day. I can do without the macaroni soup.

This is the fastest breakfast I've had. When in HK, one should have HK breakfast of thick toast, soft buttery scrambled eggs and macaroni with ham. Then wash everything down with HK milk tea made with strong black tea and evaporated milk. Quite the experience if I might add. This place was so efficient, they knew to hand us English language menu, spoke to us in English and took our order with great proficiency and speed without sacrificing manners. The food arrived within 5mins as if they have everything all ready cooked and they merely assembled the plate and took them out preempting our arrival. The food was great - filling and cheap. I recommend it if you ever are in Wan Chai area.

Overall - 4.0/5.0 This was my first stop when I landed in HK on New Year's Eve! There was a bit of a queue but we were able to get a table within 5-10 minutes. We tried the piggy bun with condensed milk and it was definitely a winner. The bun itself was light and airy while maintaining a crispy outer layer. The condensed milk was just the right amount without overpowering the bun with sweetness. The scrambled egg with truffle on toast was also quite good. Eggs in Asia are definitely better than the ones in America and you can tell immediately by just looking at it! The scrambled eggs were smooth and silky - perfectly executed. The truffle blended well with the eggs and did not overpower it. I would definitely come back again whenever I'm in HK.

Order the scramble egg on toast with black truffle and coffee milktea. I enjoyed the egg and toast but needed more flavor. The black truffle tasted old but whatever. The coffee milktea is probably one of the most in-depth basic morning drink in Hong Kong and yet this is probably the worst I had in HK. It was super acidic and didn't have that milk taste but instead had the fan milk taste. I personal thought this would be an above avg place to eat breakfast. Ever time I walk pass it there is a long line and had heard great thing about it. It really was a disappointment waiting in line and having something like that.

One of my favorite parts of Hong Kong food are their cafes. Great for any meal of the day, but especially breakfast. Stayed on HK island this trip and tried Capital Cafe. They offer traditional HK Plus western breakfast option. English menus are available which are helpful. Service was quick, and food was on point. This location was clean as well, much cleaner than many cafe you can go to. You will see many reviews talking about HK eggs: they are spot on. Airy, creamy scrambled eggs served with fluffy toast and ham. Milk tea and Horlick are must have drinks. You should order less sugar though "Siu tim". Kaya French toast was a "lighter" option than the more traditional condensed milk, peanut butter, butter French toast. I also recommend ordering the pork chop bun.

Absolutely a fun cool experience. HK budget breakfast at finest. Wait staff was assume. Didn't miss a beat when a none local was there. A huge breakfast for 4-6$HK I ate the two days in a row. Do it.

The chicken or the egg? At Capital Cafe you get the eggs of course! Capital Cafe is popular for their scrambled eggs and rightly so. This is a very typical "Hong Kong" cafe where you can get the traditional HK breakfast (Macaroni with ham, eggs, toast, and milk tea). They have other dishes but I personally haven't tried it because every time I come here I get the breakfast set. What's special about their eggs? I'm guessing they mix it with milk, and its a little soggy in a good way. Their milk tea has has a nice strong flavor; not very watered down or overly sweet. If you come here on a weekday during lunch time, expect a very long line.. but if you go after work hours its quite empty. Either way the service is always quick without being rude (like Australian Dairy can be sometime. I wouldn't come out of my way to eat here, but if I'm in Wan Chai its also a nice option to dine at.

I'm not a fan of scrambled eggs. Usually I'll get my eggs poached or over easy because a fully cooked egg is too dry. However, I would get the scrambled eggs from here again. The combination of thick buttered toast topped with a giant mound of scrambled eggs with black truffle was delicious! I couldn't really taste the effect of the truffle. Perhaps next time I'll get the regular scrambled egg for comparison.

This is one of my favorite cha caan tengs (local cafe) to eat at. Their eggs are super fluffy and tasty. Combine it with their toast, and it's like an orgasm in your mouth. Their macaroni noodles with ham is pretty tasty, but not something that blows my mind. Their unique menu items include scrambled eggs on toast with truffle and cheesy toast with truffle. Their Hong Kong style milk tea is also solid. One of my other favorite things about Capital Cafe is the staff. They're always happy and willing to talk to you. They have a really good sense of humor too. It's not one of those places that rushes you in and out.

This was the first place I stopped at when I was in Hong Kong and let me tell you. This place gives you such an Asian vibe to it. They server hk breakfast here. The breakfast was not only cheap but delicious. Their hk milktea was on point.

their egg sandwich was one of the best i had in hong kong ^-^ very busy during afternoon time but worth it to go

Food: Eggs - I love their scrambled egg. Tastes good on toast. Or as a scrambled egg sandwich. Very smooth eggs. Milk tea - Great hot or cold. Good tea flavor to it, and not too sweet too. Truffle Toast - Named as Principal Toast (校長多士) as a nickname after a Hong Kong Singer. Comes with truffle and cheese on toast. Delicious. Not a large portion, so it should best be the side to the rest of your meal Service: Quick service, but friendly. You can tell they want you on your way, but they do it in a friendly manner. Benefit is that even if there is a line, it goes by quickly. Probably every other time I am in Wan Chai thinking about where to eat, I'll think about coming here.

Very nice local cafe, the staff working here are very old and friendly, not very good at English, but I managed to make the order at last .

Make it easy for yourself and order the set meals, haha. We got the breakfast set and it was yummy. I got my usual- macaroni with spam, hk style coffee, scramble egg with toast. Service was good! Definitely would come back here.

This place does make a mighty fine scrambled eggs on toast. I ate at around 8 am on a Friday, and had no trouble being seated. By the way, if it's your first time in HK, and you're jet lagged and up early trying to find a place to eat, don't let Yelp fool you - there are plenty of places open and serving. No need to go too far out of your way, just walk down the block, and you'll likely find a place open for breakfast.

don't be confused...when you sit down and look at the menu, it will say "Christy's cafe" but yes, you are at the right place. we got Truffle scrambled eggs toast, toast with peanut butter and condensed milk, macaroni with bbq pork and 2 iced milk teas. the truffle scrambled eggs toast was super bomb. the eggs were flufffffffy ad soft topped with a little truffle shavings. couldn't really taste the truffles but it looked good. toast was soft and soaked up all the butter it was drenched in. definitely not a diet food, but worth every bite. pbc (peanut butter condensed milk)...something so simple yet delicious. yeah you can make it yourself at home, but something about eating it in Hong Kong in a hk cafe makes a huge difference. macaroni in Campbells chicken soup and bbq pork...taste just as it sounds like. delicious and a must when visiting Hong Kong! this may actually be one of my favorite hk cafes I visited in hk....

It's my first time in Hong Kong and I like to emerge myself into the local places to eat instead of going through the motions at the hotel restaurant. I arrived from the US very late and needed to be somewhere by 8:45 am the following morning. After reading reviews of the Capital Cafe, I had the impression that this is a place where you can sit down and eat something when you're in a hurry. That's exactly what we got! They politely brought us the English menu and it's pretty basic. Nothing elaborate here, several toast options, traditional breakfast dishes of macaroni and ham etc. My husband ordered the "light fare" which consisted of 2 eggs cooked with a choice of scrambled or fried, two pieces of thick white toast, and a slice of ham. His meal also came with milk, hot or cold (cold is 2 HKD more). I ordered the sticky bread which was white bread with butter and condensed milk and the milk tea. We ended up ordering another light fare and the waiter giggled a bit but we felt it was in fun. We paid 102 HKD for 2 light fare breakfast with cold milk both times, 1 cold milk tea and 1 sticky bread (~$13 USD). As others have said, cash only so come prepared. We were in and out in about 20 minutes. Perfect for what we were looking for and a delightful first meal in Hong Kong.

Actually the fried eggs there were a little salty. The toast is good. Only use cash.

Nice cha chang tein breakfast but on the expensive side costing $34 a set, ouch.... The thick toast is nice and the milk tea is very good. Not very crowd at 8am.

Honestly, I came here purely from the hype generated from groups of friends who kept talking about this place that had back then just opened up in Wanchai. Saying so-and-so had opened the place we thought this place should be pretty decent. On arriving, it was a little underwhelming because the shop is tiny to say this least. This is Wanchai and I guess this is understandable- so we proceeded. I say proceeded but I mean we proceeded to wait and we were really told how long it will take. People were coming out pretty quickly so we thought it should be our turn soon. Indeed, the beckon for us to enter and we went in holding our breaths expecting to see stars everywhere.......well, I think the whole place was a bit bland to be honest. It was a small place so everything was packed. We sat down and the menu was actually really short- you care made to have the sets (which all have the egg, cha siu spaghetti in soup). Again you put up with it with the waiter keep chasing you down to order something; you just do. The food came and I would say its ok- that's why its got 3 stars. If I was really hungry and this was a place close to me, yes I would go there because I don't even need to think what I want. Its the same stuff over and over again. What if I was not in the area and felt like having the right to actually choose something? I wouldn't come here in a million years.

very classic HK breakfast set. smooth hokkaido milk eggs scrambled with buttered toast, macaroni ham, milk tea. simple, no nonsense.

The food here is amazing. It was a bit of a change for us culturally speaking (the way you're seated, served, etc) but nothing complaint worthy. Scrambled eggs and toast was my go-to. That and the french toast. The Breakfast crowd is packed but from 12pm to closing its pretty chill. Highly recommended. A++

Finally got to try Capital Cafe. Unlike most HK tea cafe, CC doesn't overwhelmed customers with a plethora of selections. The house specials Black Truffle Egg Toast and the Ghost Pork chop bun were decent. Although I have to say I couldn't taste much of the truffle flavor despite the toast being sprinkled by lots of black powder that is suppose to be truffle. The Ghost Pork Chop bun was solid but too much spicy/wasabi mayo. Washed everything down with an iced milk tea, which nicely balanced sweetness and dryness. Probably more hype than substance.

A good friend recommended I have to try this place. Have to get the "Levi" toast and some eggs.. they stopped making the Levi toast , but I was recommended another specialty toast, as far I could tell, it had truffles, cheese and butter.. relatively simple, but really good.. had a side of fried eggs sunny side up.. they were simple, but surprisingly good in an oily way as only Chinese can get up an egg... first time I had pockets of hot oil leak out of the egg as I carefully dissected it to get to the golden center as my reward. A little salt and pepper seasoned it I did. This small meal was washed down with a cup of authentic hot HK milk tea, if course.
