Where to eat in Causeway Bay
1. Little Bao Diner
A little bao here and a little bao there – it’s tough to pick a favourite from Little Bao Diner’s a-la-carte menu. There are two vegetarian baos available, one of them being the trendy impossible meat. If you’re craving a sweet bao, the miniature dessert versions won’t disappoint. But be warned: if you take too long to Instagram your ice-cream bao, it’ll melt in a split second! We’re also fans of the shrimp tacos, burrata, and chicken poppers. As for the drinks, the yuzu leaf cocktail is the bomb.

2. Pizza Maru
The Korean eatery, Pizza Maru, always has a crowd waiting to dig in and it’s understandable why. The Maru Blue Mussel Pot and Korean Crab Tian are much-loved seafood dishes with a Korean twist that you need to get knocked over. Plus, the honey yuzu garden greens sets others salads to shame with its refreshing flavours. For pizzas, you can opt for premium, classic, or Chicago-style if you want to go all-out on the crust (and cheese!) And, of course, the Korean Fried Chicken corner simply cannot be missed.
Pizza Maru (Causeway Bay), Shop 1302, 13/F, Hysan Place, 500 Hennessy Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, p. 2318 1012, 銅鑼灣軒尼斯道500號希慎廣場13樓1302號舖
3. The Drunken Pot
For a sizzling meal with stunning harbour views, head up to The Drunken Pot, a fabulous hot pot restaurant with a cult following. If you’re keen to go all out, get the ultimate 5-in-1 hotpot feast: a pot featuring five lip-smacking broth bases such as Sichuan-style spicy soup; nourishing papaya soup; traditional beef brisket in clear broth; Boston lobster in tomato soup; and creamy Teochew-style satay soup. This is definitely one of our fave places to eat in Causeway Bay.

5. Kampoeng
This Indonesian fusion resto teleports you straight to the emerald of the equator with its village-themed interiors, and food served on banana leaves. We love Kampoeng’s set meals as you can taste a little bit of everything on a single plate. The beef rendang with mixed platter and rice, as well as the fried sea bass in Indonesian-style have us coming back on the regular.

6. Hungry Korean
Looking for a quick but hefty Korean feast? The Hungry Korean is a budget-friendly option for fast Korean cuisine. The casual canteen serves dishes like bibimbap, japchae, kimbap, and of course, kimchi. You might just want to avoid this place at peak lunch hours as it can get pretty busy.

7. Via Tokyo
Mad about matcha? Get lost in matcha heaven at Via Tokyo, a Japanese dessert café specialising in green tea everything. Think Matcha Eclair, Matcha Mielle Feuille, Matcha Lava Cake, or – our personal favourite – the Matcha Affogato. If you need to cool off after a serious shopping session, try its amazing Japanese soft serves in royal milk tea or black sesame flavour.
Via Tokyo also makes it to our lists of best matcha desserts and ice creams in the city.

8. Kikanbo
Hailing from Tokyo, Kikanbo is not to be missed for ramen fans. But, just be sure you can handle the spice, as this Japanese restaurant is renowned for its karashibi ramen – numbingly spicy noodles in a rich miso broth crafted with red chilli peppers and green shibi peppers, topped with egg, pork, and veggies. Want to challenge yourself? Adjust the levels of numbness and spiciness to the oni (Japanese demon) level to see if you can be on par with the devil!

Cedele is our go-to in Causeway Bay when we’re in the mood for comfort food with a healthy twist. The bakery-slash-café serves delicious grain salad bowls with offerings like quinoa with miso mirin salmon and fresh veggies, and freshly-made deli sandwiches. If you’re craving something sweeter, Cedele does guilt-free desserts justice–if you don’t believe us, just give their Pandan Coconut Cake and Coconut Walnut Cake a try.
