It has been a while since the last time I had a cheap and good Chinese food in Chinatown. It is pretty convenient after a night out in Covent Garden, Leicester, or Soho. So I was glad when a colleague recommended going to Cafe de Hong Kong for an Asian treat.
A Chinese Brew
A student dinner, probably due to the prices, quite near from Leicester Square station. Offering Cantonese cuisine with some other strange items on the menu.
Menu
We went for the typical sharing dishes, pork belly, roast duck, fried squid, chicken wings, and Singapore style noodles. The food pretty average, the roast duck was ok, the pork belly average, and the wings, the squid or the noodles pretty common. In conclusion nothing that blew our minds.

At least we had the chance to get a couple Tsing Tao and forget about our daily work.
Just a couple
I can't help that every Chinese restaurant reminds me the Seinfeld episode “The Chinese Restaurant”
Jerry: Excuse me... We've been waiting here. Now, I know we were ahead of that guy, he just came in.
Bruce: Oh no, Mr. Cohen always here.
Elaine: He's always here? What does that mean? What does that mean?
Bruce: Oh, Mr. Cohen, very nice man. He lives on Park Avenue.
Elaine: Where am I? Is this a dream? What in God's name is going on here?
