HOKO Hong Kong Cafe - Tower Hamlets
G Honestly was very impressed with this spot, as someone who frequents Hong Kong yearly I always get the blues and cravings for cafe food whenever I’m back in the uk for too long.
Firstly the interior and aesthetics are sooo clean, it depicts an olden day Hong Kong diner with the staff uniform matching the same theme too. Though there are queues lining up from opening throughout the day it seems to get progress pretty smoothly.
The variety is not too big not too small so you can tell there are obvious signature dishes on the menu, I personally really like the fried squid tentacles as they were very rich in umami and crispy with the soy sauce chicken wings which are like the ones I had at home when I was younger.
The portions are surprisingly also quite big and filling which is great with a side when dining with others, I personally preferred the cha siu over the pork chop as the pork chop was quite filling. Noodles were great and the egg was perfectly silky.
Price wise obviously is more expensive than cha chaan tengs in Hong Kong but definitely worth the experience the nostalgia and taste of Hong Kong in London for a decent price point. They also have their in house homemade Hong Kong milk teas!
Would definitely go again!!
