Hong Kong Food Porn: Ippudo HK

If you happen to drop by or spend few days in Hong Kong, eating is the main goal to satisfy your trip in the country that serves diversity when it comes to food.


Japanese noodle or simply called Ramen is a great choice to eat especially during cold weather in a country that have four seasons like Hong Kong.


And what restaurant offers the best (so far for me) ramen in HK? Ippudo HK!

I read a few reviews about this Japanese restaurant located in Silvercord Mall in the shopping street of Tsim Sha Tsui and all were positive.

Ippudo is created by TV Tokyo's "Ramen King" Shigemi Kawahara and opened the Hong Kong branch just last year. Ippudo HK's main star are the three variations of tonkatsu pork bone broth ramen; Shiromaru Motoaji (White) HK$68, Akamaru Shinaji (Red) HK$68, and spicy Ippudo Karaka HK$78.

As a person who doesn't like spicy food, I went to the safest and the beginner's choice the White Shiromaru Motoaji. Unlike other ramen, Ippudo's ramen deserves an applaud because of the colorful toppings and yummy broth.

The best part of the ramen is the pork bone broth used, super YUMMY! As they said in the Philippines... sabaw pa lang ulam na!! NOM!!

Cute sesame seed jar.. I WANT!

With regards to their toppings, its up to you which topping you want to add (included in their menu).


We also ordered the Ippudo Pork BBQ bun, it wasn't amazing but worth to try.

With regards to waiting time to seat, avoid the peak hours (lunch break and dinner).

Hong Kong: Tsim Sha Tsui ... What To Offer?

Hong Kong is not as big as CHINA! LOL! But you can't stroll the whole of Hong Kong for one day.

I chose (since I'm the tour guide) TST (short for Tsim Sha Tsui) because its more convenient for a tourist than any places in Hong Kong, though I really like to stay in Causeway Bay.

Tsim Sha Tsui has a lot to offer for tourist; shopping, food trip, cultural exploration, and photo ops.

Most famous spots in TST for tourist:

Avenue of the Stars (AOS) -- a Hollywood walk of fame - esque, where you can find the stars of Hong Kong celebrities (e.g. Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh, Chow Yung Fat, and others).

Located along Victoria Harbour waterfront. If you're coming from Nathan Road, take the Haiphong Road to Canton Road then left turn at the corner of Haiphong and Canton. Walk towards Canton Road, once you reach Marco Polo Hotel and see the Clock tower, then you almost reach your destination.

Symphony of Lights (SOL) -- a synchronized presentation of lights from 44 buildings across Victoria Harbour waterfront accompanied by music. The show starts at 8:00 PM (evening) in good weather.

Silvercord -- this is where you'll find shops like H&M and I.T., you can also find the famous Taiwanese restaurant Din Tai Fung here and more affordable in Food Republic.

H&M

Hainanese Chicken Rice

Located at the corner of Haiphong Road and Canton Road.

Harbour City -- this is where you'll find high-end and luxury brands like Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Gucci, etc.

Located along Canton Road.

Mirador Mansion -- this is where you'll find the "money changer"of Hong Kong, Wing Hoi, the best foreign exchange rate in the ♥ of TST. You can also find the cheapest souvenirs inside this building.

Located along Nathan Road, 13th or 14th stop from airport if taking a bus A/N21.


Heritage 1881 -- one of the best site for photo ops and this where you'll find luxury brands for jewelry.
