Trying to bring a bit of Tsim Sha Tsui to Telawi, Hong Kong 97's temptations span century eggs striving to channel the creaminess of Yung Kee to bowls of pan-fried luncheon meat with instant noodles. Braised beef brisket and tendons with radish make for a comfortingly fork-tender, fuss-free meal with rice and egg (RM25); wash down with a China China Cup, a sweetly reviving cocktail with a base of Bigallet China-China orange peel liqueur (RM38 per glass). Price-wise though, there's perhaps more pain than pleasure for what's provided.
Hong Kong 97
