Cha chan tengs are the one type of restaurant that pretty much symbolizes Hong Kong. There are so many of them from chain restaurants like Tsui Wah to modern hip ones with a retro feel. But what about the old ones. The ones that have been here forever and refuse to make it look retro and hip because it already is old.富堡茶餐廳 is an old cha chan teng located in Wong Tai Sin.

富堡茶餐廳 is an old cha chan teng located in Wong Tai Sin. Menu is in Chinese only. There is no 10% service charge. The menu is also found on the walls of the place. It's small and cramped. But also packed with people.
During dinner time, they have dinner sets and all day sets that cost $56. This includes a main, soup and drink. For soup you can choose the daily Chinese soup or cream of tomato soup. I followed boyfriend as this was his favorite place and had the cream of tomato soup. He seemed to like it more than me. I felt it was too much cream and not enough tomato flavor.
We shared two mains. One was the satay fried rice noodle. Portions here was SUPER big. We couldn't finish and he ended up taking the leftovers home for later. The meat was very tender without the taste of meat tenderizer that is so often found in most cha chan tengs. There was enough sauce to not feel dry. The noodles were smooth but not mushy.
We also ordered fish fillet with cream of corn sauce with rice. A huge portion as well. The fish fillet was fried nicely without too much coating to make it feel thick and heavy. The corn sauce was sweet and generous.
Prices were fairly cheap for the amount of portions provided. Food also came out fast. Obviously everyone that dined here seemed to be regulars.
