茶記

茶記, a cha chaan teng in Kwun Tong, is at 九龍觀塘觀塘道470號. Before heading over it is worth checking the hours, phone number and Google rating below, so the trip is not wasted.

Cha chaan teng are part of everyday eating in Hong Kong: breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner are mostly served as set meals that include a drink, with a small extra charge for a cold one. At busy times you will often share a table, food arrives fast and tables turn over quickly; many also do takeaway, sometimes with a small charge for the box. Few charge the 10% service charge, Octopus is widely accepted and some older shops are still cash only. You can ask for no ice, less sugar or a hot drink instead when ordering; the set meals of the day usually change daily.

Google lists the opening hours as Mon–Sat 06:00–21:30, Sun closed. That makes 6 working days a week. Arrangements may differ on public holidays, over Lunar New Year and when a typhoon signal No. 8 or above or a black rainstorm warning is in force, so call before making a special trip. You can call 2345 3032; a phone call is the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or how to get there.

It has a Google rating of 3.2 out of 5 from 206 reviews, which is on the low side, so read the most recent reviews before you go.

Kwun Tong is part of the Kwun Tong District in Kowloon. Kowloon is densely packed: Nathan Road runs north from Tsim Sha Tsui towards Prince Edward, lined along with its side streets by shops, restaurants and upstairs businesses, and most places are a few minutes' walk from an MTR station. Mong Kok's street markets, Sham Shui Po's electronics and fabric streets and Kowloon City's Thai restaurants are familiar landmarks for shopping and eating. Many Kwun Tong industrial buildings now house offices, restaurants, gyms and studios; note the building name and floor, as access can differ in the evening and at weekends.
