Ever wonder what Chinese people offer to their family and friends during the Mid-Autumn festival? That round looking small “cake” is popularly called Moon cake. The round mooncakes represents the moon in the night sky at the Mid-Autumn Festival.

When you are out on our Hello Hong Kong tours, you will learn that moon cake is not just food for Chinese culture but it symbolizes completeness and togetherness because of its round shape.

It has a very thick filling with a combination of saltiness and a sweet potato like taste. Be careful on consuming a lot of it as it might add on to your pounds! BUT it is very delicious and a NOT to miss food to try! You can even try one just ask your Hello Hong Kong tour guide.

When we take you on a Hong Kong food tour, we want to introduce you to Hong Kong's most delicious local food. We think it is much nicer to share the food with friends than eating alone!

The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA)came with us on a tour! We had a fun crowd of 30 students in total and plenty of food to share!

Because most of the Michelin star restaurants that we take you too on our Hong Kong foodie tasting tour are small family restaurants, we ended up having a part of the restaurants just for ourselves.

We then visited the local wet market and the students were quick to buy some fresh fruits for themselves.
