Ichiran Raman, open 24hrs and located just 7-8 mins walk from Park Lane

This place, according to the nice Hong Konger aunty seated next to me, is the famous restaurant located in Causeway bay. Snake soup is said to provide excellent health benefits and often made with two different types of snake meat.
The meat is pretty much unidentifiable as another Hong Kong Lady seated across from me tried to tell me to look out for the black stringy bits. The soups itself is boiled with Chrisenthinum and Lemon Leaves, along with typical sweet and sour soup ingredients (pork, mushroom, fungus).
The dish seems to resemble the story of the stone soup, where all the other ingredients
provide the flavor rather than the snake meat itself. Think thick, sweet and sour soup,
without the sweet and sour, but with nice floral accents from the Chrysanthemum leaves
and a hint of zest from the lemon leaves.

Order their roast pot sets. As shared by other crew, their varied roast pork rice is very
good and Char Siew Rice is their staple to packet prior departure. Their roast meat lunch
sets were pretty much ordered by other patrons when I was there in the afternoon. Review of their roast meats below!

Always in HKG, ones has got to order their simple, yet sinful roast meat dishes.
- The Char Siew, request for full fatty or half fatty meat for a juicer, succulent cuts. One of the most moist and succulent char Siew I've ever had. I now understand the must packet away order.
- Their roast pork is better than Tai Heng (click here for ABBA review of Tai Heng). No
heavy pork smell, with a super crispy exterior. Tip top roasted pork belly, with no less
expected from Hong Kong.
- Their Lap Cheong is very fragrant, fatty and has a light alcoholic accent to it. This is possibly due to the curing or making process some brandy added to the mix. It's not bad but I was actually wanted to order duck liver sausages (darker colored preserved sausages) but didn't know what its called. I'll have to come back to try another time.
P.S Their preserve sausages are available for purchase off the rack for your consumption. Note: Don't be expecting vacuum packing services. Thus far I've been buying from known brand Wing Wah from the airport which comes with a 15% discount (Click here for more details). Have yet to try from here.

If you've never had snake soup before this is definitely the place to
have it for the 1st time. The snake comes in a soup that has a thick
base, much like hot n sour soup or fish maw soup. Can't really say much
more then very flavorful and value for money, originally the set meal
comes with rice and Chinese sausage but we opted to change to cha siew
and chicken for a small bump in the price we felt it was worth the extra
paid.
Total HKD106
People say that snake soup raises the body temperature and I'd
have to agree as we were all feeling the effects of the soup after
stepping out of the restaurant into the cold Hkg night without jackets.

Delicious Kitchen, go for the pork chop rice or beef tendon rice, cheap
and good value for money as the set meal comes with a choice of soup.
The beef was soft and tender and the pork chop were pretty good overall.
Also ordered the fried fish and cold drunk chicken. Have to say I'd
recommend the fish for the sweet sauce its based in but not the cold
drunken chicken. Location is about a 5 min walk from the hotel and is
good for a quick fix as its not usually crowded.

Pork Chop with Vegetable Rice
Somewhat of a following from four four days. The standard order is, vegetable rice with Pork Cutlet (option for doubling up the cutlet) An oldie but a goodie that crew have been patronizing for years. Some have traveled all the way from Kowloon side just to check off his personal must eat joint.
Simple food fair. The pork cutlet was fresh out the fry with a semi sweet glaze over it. The juiciest parts are off course near the bone. The rice vegetable dish really added a unique aromatic quality to the dish.
Simple food fair, filling and located a stone throw away from Park Lane Hotel. I'd personally go for the double portion. I personally don't see the strong allure, but there's only so much Dim Sum and roasts one can eat whenever in HongKong. Frequent delicious kitchen goers don't recommend the drunken chicken and the rest of the dishes seem so-so. The pork cutlet is the go to order as seen.

You should include in your overall budget some expenses related to holiday parties also check kuwait sightseeing . Often times, you may be expected to bring a food item for a potluck, but this doesn't mean you need to spend a lot of money- there are a lot of great dishes you can bring that do not require a lot of time or expensive ingredients.
