Tai Ping Koon Restaurant
G/F., 19-21 Mau Lam Street, Yau Ma Tei, Kowloon 2384 3385 Since it’s our last night in Hong Kong, we decided to splurge a little and have a nice dinner at this old and established restaurant which features a fusion of Western and Cantonese menu. It’s been around since 1860! The TPK Style Fried Rice Noodles with Beef in Swiss Sauce (HKD$72+/SGD$13+) is one of the chef’s recommendations. This is quite good! Each strand of noodle is evenly coated with the sauce and the beef is very tender. The TPK Style Roasted Young Pigeon (HKD$98+/SGD$17.80+) is very disappointing! So many websites said that this is a “Die Die Must Try” dish here but I don’t agree. The bird is very small and boney so there’s not really any meat on it. And it’s expensive!
Taste wise, it’s delicious! It’s extremely soft and light and I like the custard-like texture. I still can't get over how big it is. To give you an idea how big it is, compare the size of the drinking glass to the baking dish. Remember to order this earlier as it's freshly baked and you have to wait for about 20 minutes.
