英記麵家 (English name: Ying Kee Noodle) seems like your typical noodle shop. But for some reason, it garnered a Michelin Bib Gourmand for the past 3 years. It's probably due to this, people from all over the city will search for this place. And it was on this day, boyfriend and I decided to give it a try.The restaurant isn't very big and is like any noodle shop in Hong Kong.

The restaurant isn't very big and is like any noodle shop in Hong Kong. With stools and tables on one side and the kitchen area where you see them making the food. The front has plastered several postings of all their accolades.
Menu is in Chinese only. There is no English and no 10% service charge.
Boyfriend ordered their signature item: char siu and deep fried wontons ($48). The bowl, though not big, was packed. The char siu was oven grilled so different than the fatty styles I adore more. But it was ok. The deep fried wontons were pre-fried so they were soggy and cold. Boyfriend felt it tasted like cold chicken which he dislikes. I love cold chicken so I thought it was ok.
After thinking of getting the beef brisket (another item they are popular for), I opted for the variety of beef offal ($43). There were a number of items: tripe, small and large intestine, lung. Fairly good though with a rich sauce. The lung was probably my favorite. I haven't had this in a long time!
Food was ok. But to travel all the way for this .... not too worth my time as it seemed like any other noodle shop. But I guess if you are walking around with the Michelin Guide in hand, this could be a stop for you.
