Where a Cantonese comfort food lover goes for tastes of ‘old-school Hong Kong’ in the city

Marathon swimmer Ryan Leung Chun-hay, who works in the property sector, is the only Hongkonger to ever swim across the North Channel between Northern Ireland and Scotland. He spoke to Andrew Sun.

I enjoy simple, traditional Hong Kong comfort food – such as steamed or scrambled eggs with shrimp. When I was in high school, my go-to lunch was wonton noodles.

I still remember they only cost HK$18 (those were the days!), and sometimes I would even have two bowls.

I love a local spot called Ho Ho Restaurant (Shop E&F, 136-142 Belcher’s Street, Kennedy Town. Tel: 2818 3658). It has been around for at least 20 years. I remember going there back in high school.

My favourite late-night order is the rice noodle rolls with eggs, and I always top off the night with a local dessert such as hot walnut soup.

The place is open late and is a favourite among students and locals for its affordable, classic comfort food.
