Brings back memories. My dad was a chef in an upscale banquet restaurant in HK, but we were still poor with 4 boys to raise. He would get home at 10pm at then we would go out for late night meals at the local dai pai dongs because that was the only meal that we could share together as a family. Dad said some of the foods were just as good and sometimes better than the upscale restaurants because they tend to specialize in a few dishes. Regardless, eating at dai pai dongs are fond childhood memories for me.

My mom loves eating at these stalls, but the problem was that we visited hk during my summer break, which meant hot humid weather. I hated the heat which meant my mom never had the chance to eat at these outside stalls when we visited.

Da pai dong still happening but the third generation have open them inside the stores. A friend of mine is the 3rd generation he got the da pai dong recipes from his grandma. He also said he missed those outdoor stalls. If you look closely you may find restaurants with dai pai dong recipes. Even those stall can’t be opened you still enjoy the recipes. But the feeling is much different. I remember once eating in open sudden rain fall we rushed to put the dinner under the cover. 😂

Deep in the recesses of Yat Tong Housing Estate in Tung Chung, Lantau Island is a 24 hour dai pai dong. Many people who live there - and we are talking 20,000 people - work at the airport and do shift-work so when they knock off they have a place to get decent food. We found it courtesy of some Chinese aircrew who live near us and it became a regular Friday night/Saturday morning ritual to stuff ourselves with good food and and a place to top up on Tsing Tao. At first the locals found it strange that a bunch of gwailos would roll up at 2am to eat but very soon, tables were pushed together, food was eaten and an array of dodgy drinking games - which we always lost (or won, depending on your perspective) - were played. That lasted about 8 years. Government inspectors, determined to prevent any enjoyment, moved in, Covid hit, and people moved away. A shame, but good while it lasted.
