From the masterminds behind Sichuan mainstay, Chilli Fagara, Hong Kong’s best-loved noodle delivery concept HOT ‘N’ MEEN is here to lighten up the lockdown.
Boost your mood with tender knife-cut noods like the fiery Chilli Fish Soup Noodles (HK$91) — a solo-portion of beloved Chongqing shui zhu yu, or go nuts for good ol’ Dan Dan Noodles (HK$81), served either with minced pork or dried shrimp in a spicy peanut broth. A vegetarian option made with jackfruit is also available (HK$91).
Those with milder cravings will enjoy the Lamb and Leek Soup Noodles (HK$78) made with prized Mongolian mutton, aromatic Ja Jang Meen (HK$81) featuring Beijing-style noodles in soy bean paste, or Braised Sliced Pork Noodles with Wood Ear Mushrooms and Egg in Thick Gravy (HK$81).
A neat range of moreish appetisers (all HK$33) include Sichuan Sprouts, jewel-like Jade Vegetables with Sesame Oil and Crunchy Shrooms.
Make this a feast with a portion, or more, of homemade HOT ‘N’ MEEN dumplings. Northern-style Lamb Dumplings (HK$88/8 pieces) are supposed to usher in money ‘as vast as the ocean’ in Chinese culture, but incoming wealth or not, these lip-smacking meat parcels are a must-try. Made with fennel, cumin, peppercorns and spring onion, the well-balanced morsels serve up the gamey flavour of lamb alongside a hefty smack of fragrant spices.
The Kimchi Beef Dumplings (HK$88/8 pieces) pay homage to classic Korean flavours yet offer up all the comfort of a snack-perfect dumpling.
Vegetarians will adore the flavour-packed, meat-free IMPOSSIBLE Dumplings (HK$88/8 pieces) which feature succulent chunks of Impossible meat cradled in handmade dumpling wrappers with abundant veggies.
HOT ‘N’ MEEN’s eleven slurp-worthy bowls and moreish appetisers are still on offer as a follow-up to a wicked dumpling feast.
With ten slurp-worthy bowls to choose from, HOT ‘N’ MEEN is sure to satisfy any appetite. Available daily from noon until 10:30pm exclusively via Deliveroo, HOT ‘N’ MEEN is ready and waiting to lift spirits and inspire taste buds for those lucky enough to live in Admiralty, Central, Mid-Levels, Sheung Wan or Sai Ying Pun.
