Ms.Happy Eater: Honolulu Coffee Shop @ Central, Hong Kong 檀岛咖啡饼店@中环，香港

'Cha Chan Teng' is a Hong Kong term which refers to 'tea restaurant', the Hong Kong style cafeteria, is one of the most popular and frequented places by both Hong Kong native and tourists. Cha Chan Teng features the set meals, breakfast, lunch, tea time and dinner. A trip to Hong Kong would not be complete without visiting to Cha Chan Teng.

Honolulu is a Cha Chan Teng serving egg tart, polo bun and a wide variety of chinese and western food. Honolulu is currently has three branches which are located at Central, Maritime Shopping Mall Tseung Kwan and the original branch, Wan Chai.

Before heading to Madame Tussauds, we planned to patronize this famous restaurant because of their famous egg tart. The coffee shop did give me the authentic ambience of Hong Kong style Cha Chan Teng which is a bit old but it was a pleasant experience dining here. The staffs are efficient, they were not rude but not so friendly.
