[Food] Authentic Hong Kong Cuisine at EATZ@HongKong

We all know that Hong Kong is a foodie's paradise. It is so famous with its food that some people travel all the way to Hong Kong just to taste the authentic Hong Kong food. But hey, we can get authentic Hong Kong cuisine here in KL, at the newly opened EATZ@HongKong located at Lower Ground Floor, The Gardens Mall.

We love the variety of Hong Kong Food available on the extensive menu of EATZ@HongKong. From light snacks, bun to main, drinks and dessert. Everything here is freshly made from the bustling kitchen of EATZ@HongKong. Multiple whisks whipping up delicate souffles, pot lids rattle as the delicious aroma of curry escapes in a puff of steam and little clinks can be heard as tall glasses are filled with ice and the milky concoction of tea and coffee mixed to perfection.

“Everyone has their own interpretation of Hong Kong cuisine. Some say chicken chop or egg tarts and others may say Polo bun or cheese-baked rice and all of them would be right. This is because, Hong Kong has witnessed an ever-evolving menu every decade with the earlier years somewhat replicating a British-style café,” says Ms Valerie Choo, Managing Director of Simply Awesome Sdn Bhd. 

Proudly spearheaded by Head Chef Kak Noor, the kitchen churns out fresh buns and toasts straight from EATZ@HongKong’s ovens and whilst many a grilled-meats come highly recommended, meat-free dishes are available too! “The team behind this outlet, together with special advisor and Creative Chef Johnny Wong from Hong Kong, has worked extensively on the menu which includes the much-loved favourites like Cheese-baked Chicken Cutlet with Rice, French Toast, Curry Seafood Rice and Grilled Fish Fillet with Spaghetti, to vamped up versions of the classics like Prawn Toast, Satay Beef Rice, Polo Bun with Truffle Scrambled Egg, Milk Tea served on a bed of ice, Osmanthus Jelly and Australian Beef Striploin, to name a few,” Choo added.

Chef Johnny has been fundamental in guiding Kak Noor and the whole team, to retain the authenticity of this cuisine, and elevate it to greater heights through the use of only the finest ingredients. Says Kak Noor, “The Malaysian palate is a particularly special one. From sweet to salty, to sour and spicy, we enjoy a variety of flavours, and classic Hong Kong cuisine is especially tantalizing to our taste buds for various reasons.

Firstly, the Cantonese flavours are very much a part of our local Chinese food but a more noteworthy reason is our shared history of colonial rule. Distinct tastes favoured by the ‘Mat Salleh’ has played a highly significant role in what we now refer to as Hong Kong cuisine.” Fresh ingredients are key and diners can be assured that all of the sauces used are made inhouse to the exacting standards of the Head Chef.

We had tried out some of the signature dishes at EATZ@HongKong not long ago. Started off with the smooth and sweet egg tart, pair with Hong Kong Signature Milk Tea/coffee/yin yong. It was indeed a fantastic way to welcome the dinner.

Next, we had tried the juicy Swiss Sauce Chicken Wings, the flavorsome Satay Beef Rice, the irresistible Mala Spicy Jumbo Fish Balls, the comfort Fish Fillet Spaghetti, the delicious and tender Cheese-Baked Chicken Cutlet with Rice, Braised Beef Brisket Rice.

The dinner ended well with some sweet ending. Ms Souffle was fluffy and smooth as you'd expect, Polo bun w. Ice Cream (Strawberry) that is crunchy outside and soft inside. The Red Bean Punch is creamy and not too sweet.

Overall, we had a fantastic dinner at EATZ@HongKong. In fact, it was like going on a journey of a transformed Hong Kong from the era of trishaws and heritage hotels to the megacity of trains and double decker buses that it is today, whilst it’s mirroring wall proudly showcases the city’s renowned delicacies right here in EATZ@HongKong.
