Olympic / Tai Kok Tsui, Hong KongRecommended
The world's cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant, which Roger says lives up to the hype despite no-frills decor and a long queue if you don't arrive early.
“Well, let me tell you that it is totally worth the hype.”
Roger used to live upstairs and would come down for yum cha; he recommends arriving right at opening or by 11am since the queue gets long, though food comes fast once seated. Expect no-frills decor and typical HK-paced service despite the Michelin star. The BBQ pork buns (菠蘿叉燒包) are a must, maybe order two.
An all-day dim sum spot in Rolando that Roger found run by longtime restaurateur Michael, with banquet-style Cantonese white-tablecloth service and staff who keep the tea pot filled.
