Street Food is the buzz word among food lovers in Hong Kong this April as there are two street food festivals starting this weekend. The Alley Street Food Market at PMQ starts on Saturday 23 April and will run every Saturday for initially 8 weeks, but if popular it’ll be extended.
The Lan Kwai Fong Street Food Festival is a weekend long event featuring ‘street food’ from restaurants in the area, live music and other typical LKF goodies.
Alley Street Food Market @ PMQ
The Alley Street Food Market offers an upmarket take on street food inviting well known restaurants to showcase their food and drinks ‘on the street’.
Up to 11 restaurants and bars will be participating each week, among those signed up already are: Beef & Liberty, Bread and Beast, Bread n Butter Café, Drunken Pot, First Floor, Moyo, Munchies, Nice Pops, La Paloma, Prancing Pony, Punch Detox, Topiary, VCNCY and Zuc.cch.ero
Each outlet will be offering three or four of their signature dishes and some created especially for the market. So for example you could pair one of Topiary’s fine cocktails the ‘Low Hanging Fruit’ with Moyo’s delicious Korean fried chicken and finish off your lunch with Bread n Butter’s Hong Kong crepe. After some live music or shopping, rejuvenate with a Bulleit Bourbon Sour and plate of raclette – melted cheese over potatoes and ham.
Entry is free and dishes are paid for in Guru Notes, with 1 Guru equal to HK$10, and dishes and drinks are expected to range between 4 and 10 Gurus.
