For the best street snacks in town, look no further than Mong Kok, where you'll find curry fish balls, among other snacks. The Tung Choi Street vicinity is especially rich in eateries of this type, selling everything from regional specialties like spicy Chongqing noodles to curry fish balls on bamboo skewers and fragrant egg waffles.
This classic cha chaan teng serves some of the best Hong Kong classic dishes. Sample both their baked treats and carb-focused mains---try the beef hor fun, a savory and aromatic stir-fry noodle dish, followed by a pineapple bun with a slab of cold butter or an egg tart (or both). If you have room for dessert, the Hong Kong French toast is a must.
Hong Kong roast meats are famous for a reason, and roast goose is one of the must-try dishes. This is a good place to sample the roasted bird with a side of rice or noodles---the goose skin is crispy, while the meat remains tender and flavorful. The restaurant also serves char siu, roast pork, and chicken; but the geese remain the best option.
