Mak Man Kee

$ | Yau Ma Tei

This 60-year-old restaurant is a Michelin Bib Gourmand joint known for its Cantonese wonton noodles and dry mixed noodles. The noodles are ultraspringy, while the broth is deeply fragrant and the prawn-filled wontons have the thinnest dumpling skin. Get a bowl of soup noodles with wontons, as well as a dry noodle with char siu or beef brisket to find your favorite.
