Part of my guide on Where to Eat in Hong Kong
Every neighborhood in Hong Kong has an indoor market and cooked food centre where the ground floor of the building sells fresh produce, the next floor up sells meat and seafood, and the floor above that has restaurants that cook the fresh produce, meat and seafood into affordable Cantonese dishes for you to enjoy with beer.
It’s a great way to get a local experience where you will sit on plastic chairs in bright, fluorescent-lit cafeteria-like settings, and one of our favorites is Dong Kee at the Sheung Wan Cooked Food Centre.

We actually order delivery from here 1-2 times per month (it’s called Tung Kee on Foodpanda) to satisfy our cravings for their authentic Cantonese roast meats and seafood items, plus their addictive lemon chicken that is reminiscent of the American Chinese takeout we miss.
EAT THIS: lemon chicken, sweet and sour pork or chicken, green beans or eggplant with minced pork and salted vegetables, flat rice noodles with beef, salt and pepper squid, golden prawns
