it’s on Gough Street in Central. it’s a hard street to find unless you know your way around HK…with a bit of luck, your cab driver should know where to take you…tell him “Gau Gei Ngau Lam Mein” and there’s a good chance he’ll know.

if not, here’s the best directions i can give: Gough Street is a short one, running parallel to Hollywood Road (a major road). tell them to stop you on the corner of Aberdeen Street and Hollywood Road, then walk AGAINST traffic on Hollywood Road till you see a wide flight of stairs heading downwards – if you look down from Hollywood, you can see dining chairs/tables of restaurants. that’s Gough Street. take the wide stairs down, then turn right…you should be able to find it quite easily.

hope that helps!!

Oh hey, thanks for the reply, appreciate it!!
I can tell already I would truly need a local to take me there! haha..

Beef brisket noodles and Wonton noodles are my all time fav. they are my ‘must eat’ list whenever I go back!:D but i always like them with ho fan noodles instead of egg noodles or rice vermicelli.

the boy would love this!! but me, I’m with you I hate tendon/cartlidge, never eat skin or fat that you can visibly see… its too gross for me.
I can’t even eat the tendon in chicken feet, and just recently started to eat a little bit of chicken feet.

Yeah I find the texture so weird, and even the taste isn’t that good…

I can’t stand chicken skin, so the whole concept of chicken feet is lost on me πŸ˜›

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm that beef brisket with flat egg noodles is MY FAVORITE FAVORITE FAVORITE when I am in Taiwan. I haven’t had it in years…(15 to be exact) but I crave it so badly! There is just no substitution here in California. No restaurant ever comes close to the delicious noodle soup I had when I was 15.

OMG, I absolute LOVE “Kau Kee”! IMO, they have the BEST beef brisket noodles in the world!! I am not even a fan of beef but for “Kau Kee”, I will happily gobble down bowls of beef brisket noodles! We tend to go there during their off peak hours, to avoid the crazy Q & crowds. Oh of cos, never expect any service at such joints, be prepared to be verbally abused and just enjoy the food! hahahaha! I can’t wait to see more of your HK pics!

there aren’t really any off-peak hours…they are perpetually jammed. however, the key is to get in line at about 8pm, 15min before they open, in order to secure a seat.

hahaah I love that you actually Wikipedia’ed it!!! and as per the commenter above, we should definitely hit up the claypot rice stores…waxed meats on rice, so comforting on a chilly night πŸ™‚

btw the place we had dessert was The Press Room on Hollywood Road. see you in Singapore!

babe..You should get your friend to bring you to Miao Street aka Temple street for their mini claypot rice..omg..i am drooling jus thinking of it..

Sorry to barge in on this, but is there any specific shop I should be looking for if I want to try the mini claypot rice?

Thanks in advance! ^_^

Bev: I sent you an email this after abt SG sales, it slipped my mind that you are in HK!
