I found this little place wandering around by Temple Street in Yau Ma Tei. Filled with locals in business dress on lunch break. A very nicely dressed host invited me in. I was offered a "western food" menu, but why have that when you're in Honk Kong? The non-western menu consists of lots of curries, seafood, and local favorites. I went with the Malaysian curry with chicken, came with steamed rice or bread, and a jasmine tea. I asked for mild spice, and oh man, if this is mild I'd hate to see what hot would be. Mouth is on fire, but it tastes so good I don't care! It's a great place to just sit and have a nice meal and see how the locals have lunch. Staff were all very friendly. Total cost came to $78HK, about $10 US. I still have a few days left and will be going back for more I'm sure!
