Hong Kong-style tea and tea restaurants are originally very common and ubiquitous roadside shops in Hong Kong, but they are often forcibly added to Hong Kong-style elements in other cities. The decoration of the restaurant resembles a tea restaurant in a foreign Chinatown, and the wall on the left hand side of the entrance is neatly covered with tapes from the 70s and 90s of the last century.
The owner of the restaurant is Cantonese, and the neon light box, the fauci spring at the door, the black and white square tiles on the ground, the green chairs on the round table, and the small ornaments on the cash register are all very recognizable. The chef in the open kitchen also speaks Cantonese. It is not its decoration that retains its guests, but its down-to-earth Hong Kong-style tea food.
Although the restaurant is exquisite, the portions of the dishes are not small. The curry beef brisket rice looks average when served, but the beef is very large, the carrots and potatoes are simmered softly and deliciously, and the curry is dark in color and fragrant, and it is very good to eat with white rice. Pan-fried chicken with lemon is very similar to the local favorite fried pork cutlet, the skin is fried to a crispy crisp, the chicken is tender and white when bitten open, and it is very refreshing to eat with lemon sauce, which will not rob the flavor but can balance the greasy. Fujian fried rice is also a major feature, not so much fried rice, more like a rice bowl, radish, lettuce, mushrooms diced, and shrimp, lean meat together to make toppings, the sauce is thick, wet and glutinous bibimbap to eat, both meaty and very refreshing, make people appetite.
The French toast here is also delicious. Western toast is fried golden and crispy, it is still hot when it is served, a small piece of butter on the surface will slowly melt, and it can be cut and eaten after melting and wiping evenly, the sandwich is mellow peanut butter, and if it is not sweet enough, you can also add a little ancient syrup, although the calories are off the table, but it is very satisfying to eat a bite. The most popular drinks on the drink list are the Reputation Frozen Milk Tea and Frozen Lemon Tea, the ice cubes are made with milk tea, and they will not fade at the end of the drink, and it is refreshing to take a sip. The citric acid of frozen lemon tea is refreshing, and the tea base is mellow, which is suitable for greasy food.
Opened in 2015, almost 80% of this café is a regular customer, and there are many diners who come here. The store is small, but it's very popular, and it's full at noon on weekdays. The waiters are skillful and busy, performing their duties, enthusiastic and quick, and will greet regular customers loudly. Eating here is a proper and relaxing, and the reputation of the restaurant really deserves the reputation of the neighborhood.
As an added note: Tung Fat Road Hong Kong Noodle Restaurant is a bit similar to Reputation Restaurant, and the price is more affordable, so you might as well give it a try.
