Pak Lee Cafe

Eastern

Pak Lee Cafe in Sai Wan Ho has been a beloved institution for more than half a century. The master chef, over 80 years old, still hand-makes the cafe’s iconic Cantonese doughnuts (sa yung) every morning — golden puffs made of eggs and flour and generously coated with sugar. Locals also love its corned beef and egg sandwiches, crispy prawn toast, Hong Kong French toast with butter and Hong Kong-style milk tea.
