This week’s RTHK Hong Kong Stories takes a look at the legendary Sammy’s Kitchen and its founder Sammy Yip.
Yip opened a steakhouse in Sai Ying Pun in 1969, serving up hotel-quality food at affordable prices – so as to allow the general public to experience the indulgence of a steak dinner.
To cater to the tastes of local Chinese diners, he later developed Hong Kong-style Western dishes, also known as “Soy Sauce Western Cuisine”.
Sammy’s icon neon sign was saved when the restaurant relocated and is now on display at the M+ museum.
