#TravelHongKong: Walking Along Restaurants Street in Central

(Edited)

September 7, 2022

It's humpday Wednesday, I hope it won't be a humpy day. Glad I could slack here on Wednesday Walk community by @tattoodjay. This is probably my first post here if I'm not mistaken. If I didn't do it before, pardon me. I hope I can be forgiven. See the rhymes? Oh, never mind.

It's a good day, let's have a walk. If you haven't yet, go out and let's talk. A perfect place for it, do you have in mind? I do know some, a lot of choices to unwind.

Central, the capital city of Hong Kong. What do you think about it? Rich, expensive, skyscrapers, tourists, foreigners, shopping malls, and of course, restaurantes! No puedes irte de la ciudad sin visitar uno.

I was exploring Central one day when I came across this certain part of Mid-level Central and all I saw was food, I mean, restaurants. Don't ever walk here with an empty stomach, or it might go wild once the aroma of food goes into your nostrils. In case you have some cash in your wallet, then it's not a problem.

Mind me, if you want to dine in, HK$100 isn't enough 😂. You should ready your credit card with Hong Kong dollars! I wonder if there are restaurants here accepting cryptocurrencies, but I only know of one, which is in another city.

Central is also a place of the corporate world so expect to see a lot of foreigners, either residents, tourists,or businessmen. Since different people are in this city, there are different restaurants too.

Some restaurants that people, especially tourists love to visit are, of course, Chinese restaurants to taste Chinese cuisine. You can't just leave Hong Kong without trying traditional Chinese cuisine. Roasted peking duck, char sui (Chinese pork barbecue), steamed chicken, dumplings, vermicelli, and more are just some I have in mind once I think of Chinese cuisine.

Apart from Chinese, there are other Asian restaurants too like Japanese, Thai, and Korean restaurants in this area.

One thing that I noticed while walking along the streets of Central is that there are a lot of Italian restaurants. If you love Italian pasta, then this is the perfect place for you. Not just pasta, but pizza and other Italian cuisines too.

You could see Italian restaurants and bars on all corners, even in narrow alleys that you wouldn't expect to see restaurants too.

IMG_20220906_102939.jpg

I came across Santorini too. Of course, it's the restaurant, not the place. I wish I could visit the real one though. That's one on my bucket list. I so love the ambiance just looking at Santorini restaurant, inspired by Santorini in Greece. Along this street are more restaurants and cafes too.

IMG_20220906_120239.jpg

Italian-American cuisine, have you tried yet? Franks is here to serve them. The owner seems to have occupied the whole place as it also has a bar, and lounge, apart from the restaurant. This building also has other restaurants and bars on other floors, the lower one, for instance, has a Japanese restaurant.

From Asian to Italian, looking for some Mid-Eastern and Indian cuisine? Ebeneezer is here. There are a lot of Indian residents in Hong Kong too, so Indian restaurants can be found at any place in HK. For sure you want to try their spicy curry.

IMG_20220906_102822.jpg

What about dome Mediterranean cuisine? Maison offers it. It's a restaurant that offers Lebanese, Mid-Eastern, and Mediterranean cuisines. This restaurant was rated 4 out of 5 on TripAdvisor and says to serve vegetarian and gluten-free cuisines too. I should try eating here next time since I have gluten intolerance.

IMG_20220906_110515.jpg

I passed by this street and saw some Filipinas chilling inside this bar and grill restaurant. I hope I can bring my friends here too someday.

IMG_20220906_111806.jpg

Central isn't just a place of different kinds of restaurants serving Asian, Western, Italian, and Mediterranean cuisines, but a place of bars and pubs too.

IMG_20220906_112037.jpg

It's a perfect place for night outs! At night, you could see a lot of tourists and foreigners in different corners with bars and pubs having a blast. Ahm, you could think of anything when I said, "having a blast." I don't want to make it detailed but there are a lot of stories here about people going wild at night at the bars and pubs 😂.

IMG_20220906_120707.jpg

FUkUE5bzkAZT3HzV5tJDiU2ik81PCd4JCyhWnRcDN8XJsVFY3UNB8DCXDhCdbKLssUZHyzgV8BMivE5JBKjj6Z1mXGKEa2poFtSmgk8UUkkrURjvkmRJDTSPWo525rjc3ZyuTfsicGv3jrGn5u45Mc3UzoYhkXFZRSLN.webp

There are a lot of Cafes in Central too where you could just sit down, enjoy your coffee or tea, and relax for a while having chitchat with friends.

IMG_20220906_111502.jpg

Restaurants here are open any day of the week, so it's the perfect spot for family and friends gatherings, especially on weekends. But again, as I have said above, bring a lot of cash when visiting Central and you want to dine in. Or else, you'll end up just sightseeing those eating 😂.

IMG_20220906_120434.jpg

That's all for Wednesday Walk today. "The Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by @tattoodjay. The idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can."

Thanks for stopping by and happy Wednesday Walk!

I saw the rhymes at the beginning haha. 😀 I enjoyed walking with you. Central is another world to me, so far away. I like that everything is colorful and illuminated. I am a foodie, so these restaurants are very appealing to me. If there is more money in the future, maybe this would be one of the destinations on my list, but right now I am not rich enough. 😊

Ebeneezer sounds Nigerian, I won't be surprised if a Nigerian is running that restaurant 😂 don't mind the "middle eastern and Indian cuisine" tag, some Nigerians in my country run Chinese restaurants and they have never been to China! 🤣

A street like this with lots of restaurants is my favorite kind of street but I need lots of money before I can even think about visit a place like that, it's quite obvious that they are very expensive

Amazing pictures you got there.
You explored the whole city of Hongkong and as I can see, you had a great tour.

Thanks for the tip. I will be well prepared before going for eat outs at Hong Kong restaurants 🍱😂😂.

Thanks for sharing your day with us.

Hehe, the 'en' does rhyme

This is probably my first post here if I'm not mistaken. If I didn't do it before, pardon me. I hope I can be forgiven.

Hong Kong Central seems to be an amazing place to visit, but I'd have to go to the place where cryptocurrency is accepted, hehe..

Waltzed in through dreemport.

Lovely piece and arrangement

One day, I'll surely have this experience myself 🥺 I won't be reading it on people's blogs or on televisions. Instead, I'll be the one walking down the parks and wonderful arena. Tasting different recipes along the street of Hong Kong, Paris and other beautiful cities of the world

I believe so 🥰
