Ken Kee Restaurant Hong Kong

We saw an Instagram video about the afternoon tea deal at Ken Kee, so we had to try it (this was in May). There's quite a wide array of options that you can get for their weekday 2-5pm $10 for a drink and dish deal. Since we had already had lunch, we got the HK french toast and the ovaltine french toast. We also got hot milk teas. The milk tea is literally milk+tea, so you have to add any sugar yourself. I wasn't really in the mood for it -- even after adding 3 packs of sugar, it still wasn't as sweet as I would've liked (which perhaps speaks to how much sugar goes into milk teas!) The HK french toast was not as good as the ones I have had in the past. The bread was rather dense and chewy rather than being fluffy, so it was kind of hard to get through, and the flavoring wasn't very strong on the outside. The ovaltine french toast was really cool -- when you cut it, the condensed milk filling/topping oozes out. I thought this was much better in terms of flavor. Interestingly, it tasted a bit like peanut butter. Overall I enjoyed the vibes of the restaurant with the neon lights and cute food illustrations on the table, but I probably wouldn't get the toasts again. I've been here many times before in the distant past to get dinner with my family, and I do have good memories (first time having egg tofu!) so I'll probably be back someday...

Located right in the heart of Chinatown Square plaza, adjacent to one of the main pagodas, you'll find Ken Kee which is a perfect place to try street food inspired dishes. You can't miss the neon lights! The build-your-own cart noodles are especially addictive as are the appetizers. The chicken wings are marinated similarly to Chinese duck but are fall-apart tender.

ordered via DoorDash. Spicy Beef Tripe: this dish was not spicy at all and tasted like Chinese medicine; however, the texture was perfect. Braised Tofu w. Shiitake Mushroom: the best dish tonight; see pic. Mongolian Beef: expectations were not met; the quantity was less than the tofu dish and it did not taste like Mongolian beef that I've come to know; the color is not deep brown like the description says, "Sliced beef stir-fried with green onions and onions, typically includes a savory brown sauce with a hint of garlic." Stir-Fried Noodle w. Soy Sauce (added XO sauce): I'm not sure if they added XO sauce. Typical fried noodles that I expected. Overall, I am satiated with tonight's meal.

I definitely would come again 10/10 💯 Got the ramen. Loved the soft boiled marinated egg and turmeric meat ball? Idk but it was BOMB bro. Outside it look a lil shabby until you see the nice decoration inside. Also, the crab Rangoon’s actually are filled to the brim compared to others I’ve had . Wasn’t too full either considering it was a Saturday evening that we went (we were 7 people)

The 10 dollar special Monday-Friday from 2-5 is such great value and delicious. I got the pineapple bun with truffle butter and it was amazing. I also upgraded to the cold milk tea which was a solid choice.
