Hong Kong Restaurant Guide

A well-balanced meal in Hong Kong should contain the five basic tastes of Chinese cuisine – acid, hot, bitter, sweet, and salty. The texture should range from crisp and tender to dry and saucy. The proper order is to begin with a cold dish, followed by dishes of fish or seafood, meat (pork, beef, or poultry), vegetables, soup, and noodles or rice. Some dishes are steamed, while others may be fried, boiled, or roasted. Many of the dishes are accompanied by sauces, the most common being soy sauce, chili sauce, and hot mustard.
