Chiu Chow style Lo-Shui Goose
Probably the best Chiu Chow style Lo-Shui Goose in town. Not only with great flavor, the goose meat was tender and juicy, came with a thin layer of fat underneath the skin. If you like Western style of grilled meat, which is more dry in texture, this traditional Lo-Shui may not be your cup of tea. But if you like classic Chinese style, you'll LOVE IT!
Lo-Shui is a traditional Chinese stock Marinade mixed by soya sauce and five spices. It is somewhat similar to the term braised yet different by far. Lo-Shui can be used to cook various types of food, eg. tofu, eggs, goose meat, goose liver, goose intestine, squid, and other things.
The restaurant is small, only had a few tables where you'll need to share table with strangers. There's always a queue at the door wait for seating during lunch and dinner hour. I've eaten here many times over the years, and great that they keep up with the consistency without dropping a bit. You can order an assorted plate to try out a bit of everything.
Lo Pak Restaurant (鹵八鵝店)
Address: Shop C, 20 Spring Garden Lane, Wan Chai. [MAP]
How to Get there: Wanchai MTR Station Exit A3, cross the main road (Johnston Road), it's in the market.

New Century Soya Bean
Old Hong Kong flavour. Besides Soyabean Milk and Soya Pudding, I also love the Mochi(燸米稵) and Green-Bean Jelly Cake there.
Located in a small alley right next to the flyover. People queued up to buy dessert and soya drinks. You'll not miss it when you see the queue.
Lovely & Big Round Mochi. Four flavour available: red bean, green bean, sasemi & custard. HK$10/4pcs. Indeed, mochi is not from Japan, although it's a very popular Japanese snack, it's originated from China.
Various flavour of jelly pudding, HK$10/4pcs. Must try!
