A classic HK cha chaan teng breakfast · Fast turnover, even with a line
“you get some damn good food with that classic no-frills HK cafe style ambiance.”
Cantonese · Hong Kong Style Cafe
One of Roger's essential Jordan cha chaan teng stops, hyped but worth it for the classic no-frills breakfast combo, brusquely efficient service, and milk and egg custards best eaten hot.
Start with breakfast combo (soup noodles, buttered toast, eggs, milk tea) or steamed milk custard or egg custard, and check the restaurant’s current menu before you go.
