So the skin arrives roasted to crispy perfection and also the inside is stuffed with fragrant and flavourful mushy rice. Around £103 for a suckling pig that serves 8 or 10.

2 Beef brisket from Sister Wah

                 (13A Electric Road, Tin Hau, +852 2807 0181. Open 11am-11pm.)

Even though Central's Kau Kee restaurant is synonymous with beef brisket in Hong Kong, the city's foodies know that Sister Wah is definitely the place to go for a refreshing bowl of beef brisket noodles. The stock's key ingredient is large chunks of daikon (very similar to a large radish), making it lighter and sweeter than in many other beef brisket places. Around £1.60  a bowl.

4 Egg tart from the Hoover Cake Shop

         (136 Nga Tsin Wai Road, Kowloon City, +852 2382 0383. Open 7am-8.30pm)

This beloved Hong Kong staple is most commonly found with two different styles of crust: a crumbly shortcrust, or flaky puff pastry. However, the Hoover Cake Shop continues to draw crowds because it makes its tarts with duck eggs, intensifying the custard's silky flavour and its rich yellow hue. The shop is modest and cosy, and its only ingredient for a winning atmosphere is the deliciously buttery scent of baked goods wafting out. Egg tarts around 40p each.


5 Egg waffles from Lee Keung Kee

     (Original branch at 492 King's Road, North Point, +852 2590 9726. Open 10am-11pm)

This egg waffle hotspot facing the bustling King's Road in North Point isn't actually difficult to miss as it's completely covered in press clippings of local celebrities that the shop has accumulated over the years. The name of this joint actually means "super hot gang" in Cantonese, but over the years it has grow to be much more commonly known as North Point Egg Waffles, or even "that place in North Point". The waffles here are a little thicker in texture but retain the superb fluffy consistency that makes egg waffles so beloved in this city. There are now no less than eight branches of Lee Keung Kee egg waffles in Hong Kong, but the original is still the one generating all the buzz. Waffles £1.20.  >>Hong Kong Tour Guide
