Xiao Wang Beef Noodles is a chain of restaurants that originated from Taiwan serving beef noodles. When in Taipei, I ate there and thought it was pretty good.Now they have expanded their operations into Hong Kong with branches all over the island.

Now they have expanded their operations into Hong Kong with branches all over the island. I came to the Causeway Bay location as I live near by and had their afternoon tea set.
Menu is in English and Chinese. They give you a red pen where you circle on the laminated menu when you order. All tea sets come with a set drink or upgrade for a different drink. There is a 10% service charge.
Beef Tendon and Beef Noodle in Soup ($46). What I loved about this? The beef tendon and beef brisket was tender and marinated with a rich spices and sauce. The noodles were a thick noodle and was still chewy and not mushy. That was excellent. However, the soup didn't taste like beef broth at all. It tasted like a water and soysauce. It was so salty.
The set drink was an ice honey tea. The strange thing is when I was waiting for my drink, the waiter asked if I wanted less ice. I said no, no need to give me less ice. At first I thought I would get a regular amount of ice as it was an ice drink. What I got was a cold drink with no ice. Why ask me if I wanted less ice if this is how it was served in the first place? Very strange. The drink just tasted like the honey green tea you get from a bottle of Tao Tai. Nothing to write home about.
Disappointed with the noodles as it was good except for the soup. A far cry from the Taiwanese branch as they had a rich beef broth. Instead here they just give you a watered down soysauce broth. Given there is 10% service charge, definitely not a deal for noodles considering there are far better places in Causeway Bay. I won't be back.
