The cup of hot water can be drunk if you want - it's just hot / boiled water - nothing unusual about it. Some people choose it to rinse their cutlery / bowls, using it not because it isn't clean already but because in some places when they've washed the dishes, the dishes can still have some *some* residue/soapy taste of washing up liquid/detergent still on them. It's a carry over from when places had to wash 100 plates/cutlery etc all at once and dunked them a big soapy container etc. But that's increasingly rare these days as most places will water rinse everything afterwards - just depends on the place.

As someone who grew up in Hong Kong, I drink that cup of water. It is clean. BTW, for the blue potato milk tea, it should be taro, they just don't have a proper translation lol.

[@lukehobbs3177]

I was told I could drink the water I was just very confused as to why it was boiling 😂. Did I miss any good places you know of?

[@l3enjamin5in]

Sham Sui Po is the place for cheap and good food. I personally San Lung's curry rice, Chow Kee's lard noodle, The Park by Years's vegaterian food and Tomato C Hing's tomato noodle soup.

Like a chicken tail bun?

[@ignoblesurfer6281]

I could never get a handle of it. Some places gave you near-boiling water to drink. Other places gave lukewarm tea to wash forks in

[@samlee6938]

@@lukehobbs3177 You can disinfect to feel cleaner though the utensils should be clean already or drink. Either way is fine.

[@vwmusicplaylist1935]

Excellent video and really useful guide/reviews of places to go.

[@lukehobbs3177]

Glad it was helpful!

[@googlereviewer1944]

Great to see someone do an updated list of places

[@lukehobbs3177]

No problem mate

[@Ed7501]

I live in Hong Kong and I haven't been to some of these places.Thanks for the suggestions!

[@lukehobbs3177]

Got any suggestions that I missed?

[@Ed7501]

@@lukehobbs3177 hmmm... I'd say the Japanese stone grill steak houses. They serve you a rare steak on a stone grill and you grill it to your liking on the table. Also includes an all you can eat salad bar. Prices are a lot cheaper than regular steak houses.

Great video. Trying all these spots in March.

Awesome! Have an amazing time!

quick watch, no frill travel content! Going in July, two of your recommendations are just a stone's throw away from our hotel!

Thanks. A very helpful video. 😊

[@0vermars520]

Love this! Going end of the month. Definitely hitting these places up. Thanks for the cup of hot water info😂

[@lukehobbs3177]

Of course 😜

[@jstussyer]

well from those i visit i get usually red tea and i drink them. We usually rinse the utensils in more traditional Chinese restaurant especially places serve dim sum

[@catmi3068]

Wow The food looks delicious. My relatives like to take me to (大快活)Fairwood for breakfast everyday when I was there and once for dinner. For dimsum, I went to eat after 2p or 3p don’t remember the exact, the prices are like half price at most of the tea houses. I only had afternoon dimsum once.

[@lukehobbs3177]

Thanks for the recommendation!

Great pointers for food - an easy on the eyes and ears video...... a lot of the HK food vids are a bit hysterical and annoying to follow. This told me what I need to know without loud shit awful music blaring away.....subbed👍

how good is Kitchen One Roast goose compared to Ren ren heping or Yat Lok?

[@lukehobbs3177]

I haven’t tried those other two restaurant so I cannot say for sure. Kitchen One Roast goose is delicious and well located though.
