Many Hong Kong restaurants add a 10% service charge to the bill, and tipping beyond that is optional. Popular places fill up at lunchtime and on weekend evenings, so book by phone, WhatsApp or a platform such as OpenRice; some set a time limit or a minimum spend. Most offer both dine-in and takeaway, and Octopus, credit cards, FPS and PayMe are widely accepted, though smaller places may take cash only. Dim sum restaurants usually charge a per-person tea fee, and dishes are priced by size; weekend mornings from about 10:00 to lunchtime are the busiest, and many places give out queue tickets.

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. Central is Hong Kong's financial and business heart; the Central–Mid-Levels escalator links the streets up the hill, Lan Kwai Fong and SoHo come alive at night, and the Central piers serve the Outlying Islands.

The culinary offerings and ambiance are exceptional. The service provided an exemplary experience by ensuring a private session with your companions, attending only when necessary. Highly recommended for a memorable Chinese dinner with esteemed guests.

3.5/5 This visit was definitely an upgrade over my first experience years ago. Back then, the service was quite poor, they completely dropped a dish and didn’t inform us until we asked about it. On the most recent visit, the staff were actually friendly and attentive. It’s a sharp contrast to Luk Yu nearby, which by refused to serve me just because I was dining alone. The Roast Goose (炭燒燒鵝) was quite delicious; the skin was well-caramelized and decently crispy. It was still a little fatty for me since I am not used to eating goose. The dim sum selection is competent across the board. A technical highlight is the Traditional Superior Broth Dumpling (灌湯餃). Unlike the modern versions where the dumpling is served swimming in a bowl of soup, this is the authentic heritage style with the broth encapsulated inside the skin. The architecture of the dumpling is solid, the skin is resilient enough to hold the hot soup without leaking, and the filling is well-seasoned. My family swears by their Goose Liver Sausages (鵝肝腸), but it’s a little too gamey and rich for my liking. My aunt especially loves it, so we always make sure to pick up a pack for her when we visit Hong Kong. Beyond that, I

Their roast goose is very good. But what I really love able Yung Kee is their century egg. And the ginger that is served alongside the eggs. The eggs can be bought as takeaway. They sell them by the half dozen. The small bottle of ginger actually costs more than the eggs but you have to get them with the egg for the magic to happen.

Food is good, nothing standout but every dish is decent when compare with price point. We went for lunch during weekday. Not very busy so I’m not sure if the reservation is necessary. We are a group of 10 so we made advance reservations and they request deposit.

Wanted to try their famous roasted goose. We ordered: half of the roasted goose, bbq pork, recommended vegetable, and recommended pan fried noodles. Dessert: sesame balls with egg custard and bird’s nest soup. My favorite was the goose, bbq pork, vegetables and the sesame balls for dessert. I would definitely come back again. Skin was so crispy and crunchy.
