The story
Since its founding, Ho Hung Kee has been a fixture of Hong Kong’s dining scene, earning a loyal following for its masterful take on classic Cantonese comfort foods. The Causeway Bay outpost, located on the 12th floor of Hysan Place, brings the same dedication to quality that has made the restaurant a local institution.
The kitchen specializes in wonton noodles, congee, and other Hong Kong staples, prepared with precision and care. The wonton noodles are a standout—springy, fine noodles served in a fragrant broth, topped with plump, shrimp-filled wontons. The congee, silky and slow-cooked, is another highlight, often paired with lean pork or century egg.
Ho Hung Kee’s commitment to consistency and flavor earned it a Michelin star, a recognition that underscores its place among Hong Kong’s best noodle shops. The dining room is modern and comfortable, with air conditioning and wheelchair access, making it a welcoming spot for both locals and visitors.
Whether you’re stopping in for a quick bowl of noodles or a leisurely meal of congee and sides, Ho Hung Kee delivers the kind of honest, satisfying cooking that defines Hong Kong’s culinary soul.
