九記牛腩 (Kau Kee Beef Brisket)

Central, Hong KongWorth trying

A Central beef brisket institution Roger says would earn 4 stars for food quality alone, docked a star for famously cocky, rude owners and lunchtime waits that can top an hour.

The call

The documented visit included curry beef brisket. This record does not turn that order into a recommendation.

Recommends the curry beef brisket with a sip of soup first to appreciate the broth. Best visited on a weekday, earlier in the day — lunchtime waits can top an hour. There's a minimum charge per person, and the front-of-house lady is known to yell if you're not there to order.
