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 [...]

I know what you’re thinking…there are maybe two or three restaurants and they are all terrible…well my friends, the times have changed. I will start off by saying that although I haven’t had Mexican food in about 3 months, I wasn’t having such large with-drawls for my opinions to be altered just because of a [...]

Sadly this will have to be a short review as I had already had lunch before making my way to Cafe O. I pass this place on the corner of Caine Road and the escalators every day and finally, 8 months later, find my way in. I wasn’t even planning on staying or buying anything [...]

So I mentioned previously that I would be getting back to Jaspas in Soho and tonight was the night. Since my last meal there (the osso bucco) left some room for improvement I decided that tonight I was a vegetarian and gave their wild mushroom risotto a try…
This was DELICIOUS! I’m somewhat of a risotto [...]

Stormies probably isn’t very well known for their burgers, nor should they be. On the contrary, if you’re walking down the streets of Lan Kwai Fong on any given Friday or Saturday night you’ll know Stormies is a great spot to grab a pint and meet new people. Every weekend the place has a crowd [...]

The long awaited second posting to the Burgers in Lan Kwai Fong series!!
I was on my own for lunch today and decided a burger and a beer would hit the spot. Hong Kong Brew House is an intersting place. During the weekends, every seat is filled at night. During the daytime, I never see anyone [...]

For the past few weeks my father and I have made it our Friday lunch to grab a burger and a beer at Bulldogs in Lan Kwai Fong. I’ve decided that we should check out the other pubs in the area to find out who has the best burger so keep checking back to find [...]

Ivan the Kozak is an odd little gem found just below Hollywood Rd., next to the escalators. You simply can’t miss the place. Even though you have to cut down an alley, the Russian statue out front guarding the menu is anything but hidden. The place offers reasonable prices for their delicious, traditional Russian & [...]

After eating here for my third time I figure I can share this delicious place with you. My family and I absolutly LOVE tapas and were having a hard time finding a good place to get them in Hong Kong. Don’t get me wrong, there are quite a few tapas bars around but I find [...]

Last week when walking home I stumbled upon Chez Patrick. After checking out the menu I decided to take my family there for dinner. Chez Patrick is a french restaurant serving lunch and dinner by the course. They have two locations, one on Peel Street in Central and the other on Sun Street in Wan [...]
