“Drinks are delicious too and worth it – highly recommend trying the iced herbal tea and the sugar cane juice in their fridge!”
“In the background, there was some TVB show playing on the television (nostalgic memories if you know what I mean) .”

Don't be fooled by the lack of reviews this place has. Take a chance and come here, then judge for yourself if you like or don't like the foods here. I have been to Hong Kong many times, and have eaten foods from many authentic HK cafes (cha chan tangs). I can tell you that the foods served here are legit and truly delicious!
I was so happy to have found this hidden gem, because the foods served here are very delicious, authentic, and reasonably priced. In addition, there aren't many authentic Hong Kong styled cha chan tangs/cafes in Brooklyn. This place is considered my #1 to go to now for authentic HK cafe styled food in New York – the foods here beat the "Cha Chan Tang" restaurant in Chinatown. I am just so happy that I don't have to travel far to get decent HK cafe foods.
Staff (lady cashier, and the chef) were very friendly & welcoming. The place was spacious and very clean. In the background, there was some TVB show playing on the television (nostalgic memories if you know what I mean) . My husband & I were the first ones here, and then a few minutes later the place quickly filled up.
The foods my husband and I ordered to share: 1) French toast w/ Condensed Milk & Peanut Butter, 2) Spam, Egg, Tomato Sandwich, 3) Beef brisket Chern Fun, 4) Wonton, Beef Brisket w/ Noodle, 5) Salt & Pepper Pork Chop w/ Rice, 6) Coffee, 7) HK Styled Tea. Everything was really delicious, but if I had to pick my #1 it would be their wonton, beef brisket w/ noodle which I highly recommend anyone to order. Their beef brisket chern fun was delicious as well. In general, their beef briskets are one of the best I have eaten in NYC (so anything you order that has beef brisket should be very tasty). The french toast w/ condensed milk & peanut was delicious, savory, and tasted like the ones in HK. Salt and pepper pork chop w/ rice was my husband's favorite. And their spam, egg, tomato sandwich is unique because the chef adds tartar sauce inside the sandwich which made it so damn delicious!
My husband also agreed that the foods were delicious, and it was his first time eating HK styled foods. I happily took their menu, and showed it to my sister who now urgently wants to come here to eat.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! CASH ONLY!

Good HK style food that is authentic and very tasty overall.
Pretty good prices and has a good amount of choices on the menu that is more specifically HK style. The fried squid is always consistently delicious.;
