Old Hong Kong style eatery with minimal decor;
One shop, One item: Fresh snake meat in a light broth.
Other snake products available.
Friendly service, Good value.
Worth a try!
She's just around the corner: "She Wong Lam" (Snake King Lam) is located just next to "Master Cha Chaan Teng" at Hiller Street.
This is apparently one of the oldest snake shop in Hong Kong, probably opened for more than a century.
There is a Japanese introduction to snake soup placed outside, next to the cage with a few real snakes! :
She's traditional:
Super old-school with very minimal decor. There is a huge wooden plaque stating the shop's name at the end of the small shop.
Other than two to three folding tables and a few chairs, the most striking feature about She Wong Lam are the old and solid looking wooden boxes:
When my colleague and I entered the shop, they assembled a table for us right next to the boxes
which stated "Poisonous Snake".
(She's really nice. I asked whether I could take a picture of the snakes. He opened the box for me immediately!)
She's focused:
The only cooked food product they sell is snake soup. One size: HK$45.
So you don't need to speak Chinese or any language in fact. The moment you sit down, the friendly and quiet staff will give you a bowl of snake soup.
She has substance: The snake soup came after a short wait.
The soup base was apparently made of double-boiling chicken soup and Chinese aged ham. It had a light and easy going aftertaste. You could add grounded white pepper, sesame oil, vinegar or a bit of soy sauce to enhance the taste if you wish.
The soup at Se Wong Sun was most flavourful, then followed by Se Wong Ye and Ser Wong Fun. But this was not bad at all. My colleague really enjoyed it without adding anything. Adding the lemon grass and/or the crispy fried dough into the soup could also enhances its flavour.
A lot of snake in the broth! Basically just snakes with just a bit of black fungi, which were very fresh and crunchy as well. The size of the bowl was similar to Se Wong Ye at Causeway Bay but packed with snake meat. Even higher snake content that Se Wong Ye and Se Wong Sun. Good value!
The only thing to note is that by itself, it's not sufficient for lunch. Be prepared to have something else around the same street, which has tons of high quality Hong Kong eateries.
She'll heal you: Other than snake broth. She also sells plenty of snake related products. Such as snake wine and other tonics for cough.
The friendly old lady with an abacus will introduce the products to you and how to use those patiently.
Instructions manual such as these are also available: My colleague had been suffering for a serious cough.
He bought a cough tonic here and his health improved significantly!
HK$17 for one tube of snake & herbal cough tonic.
HK$188 for 12 tubes. Recommended!
题外话/补充资料:
暂时在港岛试了的蛇王总结如下:
蛇王[b]燊[/b]:份量不大但蛇碌真材实料.蛇腩炒饭亦很不错.
蛇王[b]二[/b]:虽有鸡肉但蛇肉比例可以.润肠套餐性价比高.环境企理.
蛇王[b]林[/b]:独沽一味五蛇羹的传统老店.蛇王二的大小但全是蛇肉!
蛇王[b]芬[/b]:环境最好选择最多,但蛇羹几乎全部是鸡肉,性价比极低.
