One of the best yu dan (fish balls) in Hong Kong (and hopefully, Singapore), the Tsui Wah Fish Ball Noodles is another must have on your visit to Tsui Wah! With fish balls that are handmade freshly daily, slurp up the thin chewy kway teow noodles and flavourful fish based soup that is sure to warm your tummy! Definitely a perfect dish to savour for your post drinking or pre-clubbing meal.
3. Swiss Sauce Chicken Wings

Despite it’s name, there is no trace of Swiss origins in this dish! A classic Hong Kong dish, these Swiss Chicken Wings are marinated in a sauce made up of soy sauce, sugar, Chinese wine and spices. Expect a burst of flavour when you bite into the succulent juicy wings!
4. Condensed Milk Toast

Nick named 猪仔包 aka“Piggy Bun” due to its shape, the Condensed Milk Toast is not to be missed on your visit to Tsui Wah. To add crunch to the bread, the bun is halved and toasted with butter smeared on the top. Drizzled with condensed milk, this salty sweet treat is a perfect tea time treat.
5. Hong Kong Milk Tea
What good is a visit to a Hong Kong Tea Cafe without ordering some tea? Savour authentic Hong Kong milk tea served in the cutest porcelain tea cup that you will ever see!
