2. Islamic Centre Canteen
What’s a trip to Hong Kong without dim sum? Islamic Centre Canteen is a convenient 10-minute walk from Causeway Bay MTR Station. It’s quite easy to find this eatery as it’s located in a mosque, Masjid Ammar. Take the lift up to the 5th floor and you’ll be greeted by the restaurant's vibrant atmosphere, where you’ll find locals meeting for yum cha (drinking tea).
Choose from their range of steamed and fried dim sum! We recommend the siu mai with chicken and har kow (steamed shrimp dumplings). For the fried dim sum, the shrimp wonton is fried to perfection and is a must-try!
#HHWT Tip: Do note that the dim sum is only available until 3pm. We recommend going as early as possible, as some of the dim sum can be sold out by as early as 12pm. But if you’re coming later, don’t worry, they offer other dishes like rice, noodles and stir-fried items too.
Halal status: Halal-certified and Muslim-owned
Opening Hours: 10am to 3pm (dim sum), 6pm to 9pm (only Cantonese dishes)
Address: 5th floor, Osman Ramju Sadick Islamic Centre, 40 Oi Kwan Road, Wan Chai, Hong Kong

3. Wai Kee
Just a short distance away in Bowrington Road Market you’ll find Wai Kee, the famous halal roast duck stall! Served with rice, the golden brown crispy duck will surely hit the spot. The store also has other dishes - we particularly like their wanton noodles and their signature mutton curry rice! #HHWT Tip: The food centre is located on the 2nd floor of the Bowrington Road Indoor Market building. Enter via the escalator on the Bowrington Road side of the building.

5. Islam Food
You might decide to skip Islam Food as it’s quite inaccessible to get to but it’s definitely worth the trip! In fact, the restaurant is very popular among the locals. If you have to pick only one dish at Islam Food, let it be the veal goulash. So crispy and juicy, you’ll be wanting more! But do be careful as you take your first bite, the gravy is hot and it may squirt.
Other dishes you have to try include the beef dumpling soup, curry mutton and scallion pancake. It’s best to visit Islam Food with your friends and family so that you can try a wider range of dishes! Also, if you dislike crowded eateries, try to avoid the 12-2pm lunch peak period as the eatery can get quite squeezy.
Halal status: Only Halal-certified ingredients and meat used
Opening Hours: 11.00am to 10.30pm
Address: Shun King Building, 33-35 Tak Ku Ling Rd, Kowloon City, Hong Kong
