How to order like you are using the city
Milk tea, lemon tea, French toast, pineapple bun, pork-chop rice. Drinks first. Shared tables and rushing you are the system. Must-eat is not overlapping queues at the most famous shop — it is one house per street segment.
Kowloon streets
Jordan Australia Dairy: one sitting only. Mong Kok: Kam Wah or Palace with Sneaker Street. Yau Ma Tei Mido with Temple Street dusk. Sham Shui Po: eat, then Apliu.
Island North
Lan Fong Yuen is a milk-tea memory, not a breakfast main drag. Tsui Wah Wellington is for late night. Capital Café with Wan Chai market morning. Yee Shun in North Point is slow steamed milk.
