High Five 囍筷

Overall a 3.75/5. Let's start with the good. The noodle soup where you can choose your own soup base was quite delicious and jam packed with a generous portion of ingredients! My wife also really liked the sharkfin soup, which she said was more flavorful than the one from Kowloon. The seating was spacious and comfortable, and the interior design was reflective of your typical cha chan tang. Now onto the not so great. The corned beef egg sandwich had plenty of egg but very little corned beef, which basically made it taste like just an egg sandwich unfortunately. The satay beef was also not that great and lacked the nutty and creaminess that classic satay beef often has, which was the most disappointing for me for that dish was what I looked forward to the most. The red bean ice drink was

This place is a no frills cha chan tang. Service was OK, we got our food quickly and paid quickly. Wish they were friendlier but it's fine. We got the imitation shark fin soup, rice rolls with mixed sauce, fried three treasures and Hk milk tea. The soup and the milk tea were average at best. The rice rolls were soft and bouncy and had a perfect sauce mixture that was well balanced, portion was also quite good. The fried three treasures were delicious, they have a light batter which makes it slightly crispy and sticks well to the slightly sweet soy sauce, the fish/shrimp paste was nice and bouncy. Everything came to $23 for a quick afternoon snack and was filling for the two of us. I would stop by again for an afternoon snack.

I usually come to High Five for their set meals (常餐), but this time I finally got up early enough for their breakfast sets lol. The breakfast is cheaper ($8.25) but also comes in a smaller portion, which I think it's still enough. Each noodle set comes with eggs of your choice, butter toast and hot drink. Their Hong Kong style milk tea and iced lemon tea taste super authentic, exactly like what I grew up having in HK. Tipping is also appreciated but not required! ＊Satay Beef over Vermicelli 沙嗲牛肉米粉 ** ＊Spiced Minced Pork over Noodle 五香肉丁公仔麵 ** ＊Macaroni Noodle Soup with Ham 火腿通粉 They make the 五香肉丁 in house, so it's already miles better than the canned ones. And I get their satay beef every time because this is the BEST I've had in NYC! I've been let down by so many spots, but this one ta

Read the menu carefully! I ordered the combo C, which offered a meal and a hot drink. I asked for a cold drink, but they charged me for it, so I didn’t get a free drink with my combo. Then, the waitress asked if I wanted ramen or rice noodles, which made me think I could choose any without any additional charge. However, I was mistaken. All these options were listed in the menu, but I didn’t bother to read about them because they were small. It would’ve been nice if the waitress was kindly to let me know it was an extra charge.

solid cantonese restaurant, my family loves coming here for their breakfast sets which are affordable and delicious. their sets come with egg, toast and a drink for under $10. i always get their instant noodles and its such a comforting and nostalgic dish.
