Average Hong Kong tea restaurant food such as Fried drumsticks (cha gai bay), Western toast (sai do see), and Stir fried chicken with scallions on top of a bed of macaroni (sorry, don't know how to say this in Cantonese, I just pointed to another diner's plate). Fried drumsticks are average. The inside is not the juiciest, but ok la. The outside is good and crispy, though. The western toast is average.

Average Hong Kong tea restaurant food such as Fried drumsticks (cha gai bay), Western toast (sai do see), and Stir fried chicken with scallions on top of a bed of macaroni (sorry, don't know how to say this in Cantonese, I just pointed to another diner's plate). Fried drumsticks are average. The inside is not the juiciest, but ok la. The outside is good and crispy, though. The western toast is average. It doesn't have the creative peanut sauce of Cafe de Coral nor the Texas Toast thickness (1 inch = 2.5 cm) of Cheong Kee but it is good and without fault. The chicken with scallions on macaroni is properly seasoned and flavorful. The macaroni is store bought, but the dish still works and is good.
They also serve very hot milk tea (yeet nai cha) or cold milk tea (don nai cha). The hot milk tea is fresh off the stove so it is extremely hot. I really hate it when hot milk tea is lukewarm. Cold milk tea costs $2 HKD more but is twice as big.
They don't speak any English, so that's why I've included a translation here. However, it is not necessary to speak English. The place is always packed with people so all you have to do is just point at someone else's plate to the waitress.
The food here is ridiculously cheap. For the price I paid, I have absolutely no complaints.
It is one of the restaurants nearest to the Hong Kong library. So, for the hungry book worm with no money, then this is the place to eat!
