The best cheong fun in Hong Kong is in Hopebuck. Heyitai's signature is the cheong fun commonly found in Hong Kong-style breakfast, which is different from the common stuffed bula cheong fun, which is rolled up into strips of rice noodles, which is also called pork cheong fun because it resembles pig intestines.
Hop Yitai sells more than 5,000 rice rolls a day, and stands tall in Sham Shui Po in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, winning the 2016-2018 Michelin Street Snack Awards, the 2016 Best Open Rice Snack Restaurant, and the 2016 Best Sham Shui Po District Hot Rice Restaurant.
Heyitai's cheong rolls are made from rice milk made in the ancient way, the cheong rolls are smooth and smooth with rice fragrance, the sauce is paired with soy sauce or fragrant sesame paste, and a few drops of lard are added, and the chemical reaction produces a salty and sweet taste. Mixing and matching different sauces can add to the aroma of sweet sauce, hot sauce and baked sesame seeds, which is the soul of a dish of cheong fun.
In addition to rice rolls, pork skin, fish balls, and radish are all popular snacks in the store. At that time, Heyitai was just a roadside stall, and in the era of cart sales, rice rolls were cheaper than Chezi noodles and more satisfying than fish balls and roasted wheat. At present, Heyitai has discontinued the production of cheong fun, but picks up the goods from the Pan Kee Flour Factory. Guangdong rice noodles are divided into three kinds of white bula, hand-pulled, and iron steaming cabinets, and Heyitai combines the three preparation methods of machine steaming, bula, and human hand roll in one furnace, which is smooth and long, and there is no feeling of toughness or bite.
Although the current decoration of Heyitai is brightly lit and the environment has been detached from the atmosphere of "roadside stalls", there are still many diners who stand on the roadside and eat after buying, which is quite authentic. If there is no place to sit in the store, you can pack up and eat at the door to relive the old days of Heyitai.
