| Patient Kau Kee fans wait in line for their beef brisket fix at lunchtime |
After our jaunt around the Peak we headed back to Central and made our way to The Chairman for lunch.
It's near impossible to book for dinner without waiting a month in advance, so lunch is a better option.
Anyway we arrived very early and decided to wander around the area. Just above The Chairman is Gough Street and at the top of the stairs was a very long line -- for
Kau Kee (
九記牛腩) which is famous for its beef brisket noodles in clear soup and its own special blend of milk tea.
But a long line?
People waited patiently -- one middle-aged local man even brought a copy of the International New York Times to read.
I've tried the beef brisket noodles and the other signature dish, curry beef noodles. While they were good, I wouldn't line up for them, but perhaps there are people who have nothing else better to do on a Saturday for lunch...
