Description

Experience more than just a standard Food Tour; embark on an extraordinary journey that offers a deep dive into the unique culinary culture of Hong Kong. This 3-hour tour will focus on the rich stories behind Hong Kong's diverse food scene. How does this city, situated at the mouth of the Pearl River in South China, merge its local produce and culinary influences from abroad to create its breathtaking cuisine? Besides, we will try at least 6 different types of food in the tour and 3 of them are recommended by Michelin! Join this tour and discover the answers. Born in the lively 80s, I am a true Hong konger who has seen firsthand our city's fascinating evolution. As the former host of a popular online media program, I've honed my storytelling skills and delved into the rich tapestry of our city's history, culture, and idiosyncrasies, transforming into a walking encyclopaedia of all things Hong Kong.
