At Mr. Wong's

Now I have to recommend something for everyone visiting or staying in Hong Kong: a restaurant called Mr. Wong's. Or actually I don't even know if that is the real official name, since all the signs are in Chinese, but people always call the place just simply Mr. Wong's, so I'll stick to that name as well.

We've eaten there twice and will definitely go back again. First time we went was a bit strange, since Mr. Wong is one of the weirdest yet funniest people I've met in Hong Kong so far and it took a while to get used to his unique sense of humor. He's very interested in talking to westerners in English and asking a lot of questions. His laughter is loud and a bit crazy and he seems to be enjoying his job amazingly much. We've felt so welcome both times, and the atmosphere is very warm. It's easy to feel yourself special, which is always nice :D

There he is! The legendary Mr. Wong!

Good thing you don't need to order anything from the menu.

So what's so good about this place? First of all, Mr. Wong is such a character that it's worth the visit just to see him walk and talk. Second, it is one of the cheapest places I've seen in Hong Kong: all-you-can-eat-food and all-you-can-drink-beer for HKD50! That's a bit more than 5 euros. The beer is Tsingtao, imported from mainland, and the food is pretty good, so the price-quality ratio is very, very good.

It's such a nice place to hang out and eat and spend an evening. It's not a normal buffet since you don't pick your own food, Mr. Wong comes and asks if you prefer shrimps or fish or pork or all of them, and then just brings so many dishes on the table it's impossible to finish it all. And then he brings you beer as much as you feel like drinking and in the end of the evening you pay HKD50... Amazing place and amazing Mr. Wong! There's no toilet, but when you need one, you get a key to a bookstore nearby and you can use the toilet there - only in Asia.

The place is on Kwong Wa Street near Yau Ma Tei MTR station.

Go there, you'll love it!

Dumplings, noodles, sweet and sour fish, broccoli...
