Che Hong Kong

The only good thing about Che Hong Kong is the variety of Che (desserts) they offer, along with their attractive "buy 5, get 1 free" deal. If you're a fan of sweet treats, this is definitely a perk worth noting. However, I strongly advise against trying their $10 lunch option. The food not only lacked flavor but also seemed old and unappetizing. It was disappointing and not worth the price. Stick to the desserts, as that's where they seem to excel.

Updated 6/16/24 Texas 2024: Destination #8: General description: This place specializes in assorted Vietnamese chè and common homestyle comfort food and snacks. Highlights: The guy owner once told me years ago that his family in Vietnam has been cooking and selling chè for generations. He uses his mom's family secret recipe. I have tasted many homemade versions and versions from different Vietnamese dessert shops, but this place makes it best. This Vietnamese dessert shop has been my family's favorite place to buy chè for almost two decades now. It's all about the texture of the glutinous rice, consistency of cassava and tapioca, and the coconut milk is always fresh since they only make enough for the day. Recommendations: 1. Chè Trôi Nước- The uniqueness about this chè at this place is that the owner uses his mom's family secret recipe to make the glutinous rice to remain soft even after refrigerating. Reheat for one minute and it will be like the texture when you first bought it. Other places I have tried will have a hard texture that just doesn't taste good once it's been chilled and reheated. 2. Chè Bà Ba - coconut milk syrup with tapioca pearls, taro, cassava, and yellow sweet potato 3. My kids like the flavorful sweet and savory marinated chicken quarters. The meat was moist and tender and marinated well. 4. Canh chua gà is Vietnamese sweet and sour tamarind soup with chicken has the traditional canh chua flavor with a little twist of substituting fish with dark meat chicken 5. The spicy lemongrass with chili oil fried tofu made from scratch is worth trying. I love it. 6. Chè chuối - My mama friend and her daughter love the chè chuối, Vietnamese tapioca pudding with Thai Namwah bananas and coconut milk. 7. Chè Hột É - Basil seed chè with poontalai seeds is my daughter's favorite chè here Cons: 1. This shop only accepts cash. 2. My nose did not like the smell the first moment I stepped into the food court of Hong Kong market.

The best che in town! I always love supporting this local business. The owners working there are always so sweet and you can tell they care about their cooking. I wish they get more attention. No one makes better che. It is in the Hong Kong food court so it is easy to miss.

I eat the lemongrass chicken AT LEAST once a week

When you dont speak their language they gave you little portion for lunch box, and charge $1 more for sausage with rice, it suppose to be $3. One of the girls from Bistro B said it suppose to $3 instead 4
