Central is part of the Central and Western District on Hong Kong Island. The north shore of Hong Kong Island is one of the densest business areas in the city: the MTR Island Line runs from Kennedy Town to Chai Wan, the trams ("ding dings") between Kennedy Town and Shau Kei Wan, and many businesses trade from upper floors of office blocks and older tenement buildings. The south side is known for beaches, trails and fishing harbours such as Repulse Bay, Stanley and the Aberdeen typhoon shelter, which get busy at weekends and on public holidays.

Lei Garden Restaurant left a strong impression on me, especially with the beautiful setting inside CHIJMES. The space feels open and refined without being stiff, which made the whole meal feel special. I also really enjoyed the crispy roast pork belly, and the crackling skin was easily the highlight. It’s the kind of place I’d choose again for a relaxed but polished Cantonese meal.

Food was alright, but the quality of the service was subpar and disappointing. The servers were rude and inattentive. They didn’t engage with customers at all—just dropped off the food and hurried away, sometimes even collecting dishes before we were finished. I felt like I was bothering them just by asking a question. The open dining area was also packed, which added to the chaotic atmosphere. I've been to other Lei Garden locations, and the service and atmosphere there are definitely better. It’s a shame when the bad service overshadows an otherwise decent meal.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Lei Garden located in IFC Mall in Hong Kong, and I must say the food was so good. The menu at Lei Garden offers a wide variety of Cantonese and Chinese dishes, each prepared with incredible skill and attention to detail. From the succulent Peking Duck to the flavorful dim sum, every dish was a testament to the chef's expertise. While the food at Lei Garden was exceptional, I must mention that the beer selection was quite limited. I was hoping for a more extensive variety to complement my meal. However, the staff was helpful in suggesting alternative beverage options. One thing to note is that Lei Garden can get quite busy, especially during peak hours. This popularity is a testament to the restaurant's reputation and the quality of its food. However, it is worth mentioning that there might be a wait time to enter. Nevertheless, the attentive staff did their best to accommodate guests efficiently and make the waiting experience as comfortable as possible. Despite the limited beer selection and the possibility of a wait time, the overall dining experience at Lei Garden was exceptional. The food alone is reason enough to visit this restaura

Long established quality chain, the branch at IFC was always impossible to get a table without booking. This time we got there early and were seated without booking. We only tried dimsums and small dishes, all were as good as one could expect. The only disappointing part was the meagre portion of roast pork belly for $145, the meat was about 6cm x 8cm the size of a deck of cards. The restaurant was split into two parts, the front part was very pleasant with window facing Exchange Square, the other part was windowless and felt claustrophobic. Service was efficient but not warm and one of few places that still has table (cover) charge on top of service charge.
