Beirut

Located at 27 D’Aguilar St. in Lan Kwai Fong is a little Lebanese restaurant/bar/hookah lounge called Beirut.  Like most places in LKF, Beirut serves decent food, probably has a great lunch deal, and is packed on a Friday or Saturday night with the bar crowd.   The unfortunate thing about MOST restaurants in the Lan Kwai [...]

Local Food

I’ve been in Hong Kong for almost a year now and people are finally taking me to the “real” local food joints.  Unfortunately I cant tell you the names of the places I’ve been to as they are all in Chinese characters that I am unable to read.  On the bright side though I do [...]
