Most people know Hong Kong for its skyline. But beyond the harbor, luxury malls, and neon lights is a city built layer by layer by migrants, traders, cooks, and families who brought their traditions with them and made Hong Kong what it is today.
In this first episode, Erwan Heussaff explores the institutions that helped shape the city’s identity. From cha chaan tengs and traditional Cantonese restaurants to tofu shops, roast meat specialists, dai pai dongs, and Michelin-starred dining rooms, each stop reveals a different side of Hong Kong’s story.
This is not a guide to the newest places in the city. It’s a journey through the restaurants, neighborhoods, and people that have stood the test of time.
