Little Hong Kong, Sunnybank

The smell of this small eatery in Market Square was best described by my friend Flic in two words, “Hong Kong”. The open kitchen just tantalises your tastebuds especially with the aroma’s of the beautiful barbecued meats they have hanging on the window. You can choose from roast chicken, pork, duck, red pork or pork belly. I was pretty impressed with our waitress who memorised everything we had ordered without writing anything down. There was a group of 7 of us, and she remembered every dish with sides and drinks. Good work.

The serving size of Congee is very generous and well worth the $8-10 spent. Congee is usually eaten in parts of Asia for breakfast. It’s pretty much rice cooked in lots of water. There are no rules to what you have it with. At Little Hong Kong, I usually just get the shredded chicken congee. Very simple but full of flavour. You can also get congee with other flavours such as shredded duck, scallops, beef or fish. Flic ordered the century egg and pork congee. Don’t be put off the sound of a “century egg”. It’s not actually one hundred years old. It’s an ancient Chinese delicacy. The eggs have been preserved for a few weeks and turns dark brown in colour. Congee is great but it’s the condiments that you add to it that really makes it excellent.  You can add soy sauce, chilli oil, coriander, shallots and a bit of pepper. Yummo!!

Always packed, Little Hong Kong is not little at all when it comes to flavour. You can expect to pay around $8-25 for a meal here. It’s a real gem.
