Where to eat in Hong Kong Day 5: Mak's Noodles, Mak Man Kee Noodles, Chung Kee Dessert, Duddell Street Starbucks

Last day in Hong Kong. We woke up late as usual, packed hurriedly, and checked out of the apartment at noon. We rolled our luggage to the nearby Kowloon MTR Station where the in-town check-in was located. In-town check-in was the most convenient facility ever provided! After checking in, we decided to complete our foodie list and decided to start with those near us at Jordan.

Mak's Noodles and Mak Man Kee Noodles were both wanton noodles stores located along Parkes Street, near the Jordan MTR Station. We couldn't decided which one we wanted to try so we decided to share one bowl at each shop. Mak's Noodles were good; delicious juicy wantons and springy noodles. However, the portion was generally quite small and the wantons were especially small. It left me feeling unsatisfied.

Mak Man Kee Noodles had bigger wantons, a more fragrant soup base, and equally springy noodles. I found that Mak Man Kee Noodles served better wanton noodles than Mak's Noodles in general. However, after we finished the bowl of wanton noodles, we began to realise why it was so tasty. There was a lot of MSG in the noodles!

In essence, after trying three famous wanton noodles in Hong Kong, I found that Tsim Chai Kee Noodles was definitely the best.

After our wanton noodles, we walked down Parkes Street to Chung Kee Dessert for some desserts. Parkes Street was really lined with all sorts of yummy food! I ordered the double-boiled soup with papaya,white fungus, and almonds. It was super yummy and nourishing!

We roamed around aimlessly after filling our tummies. We went over to Tsim Sha Tsui and took the Star Ferry to Central. After walking around a bit, we started to feel a bit thirsty so we went to the Duddell Street Starbucks at Central. This Starbucks was really unique, and decorated like a traditional Chinese tea house (Bing Sutt). I loved the interior design here! Apparently, many couples liked this place too since we spotted three couples having their pre-wedding photoshoot at Duddell Street.

If you would like to have the usual Starbucks drinks at a special location, look no further than Duddell Street Starbucks for something different!
