As the cool touch of autumn greets the air, a warm, inviting scent beckons - it's the aroma of Claypot rice. For those who cherish delightful meals, the experience of enjoying this dish is unmatched. And when it comes to Claypot rice, Kwan Kee, a Michelin-recommended spot, ensures you taste the very best.
Situated in the Western District of Hong Kong Island, Kwan Kee is a gem that the locals adore. Its large red signboard, the bustle within its traditional setting, and classic Hong Kong stir-fries all promise an authentic taste of this vibrant city. Though Kwan Kee offers a range of delicious dishes, it's their signature claypot rice that stands out and has garnered them widespread acclaim.
The standout dish? The claypot rice mixed with white eels and chicken. White eels are cherished by local fish enthusiasts for their firm texture and outstanding flavor. Paired with tender chicken, this dish promises a flavor explosion.
Equally popular is the classic beef and egg clay pot rice. Fresh beef slices are well-marinated and placed inside the clay pot right before the rice is done to ensure the tenderness and juiciness of the beef. Just about when the waiter is going to serve you the dish, a raw egg is then added to the topping for extra richness and creaminess. Pour in the house-made soy sauce. Let it sizzle for a few seconds. Stir. Eat and you realize this is heaven.
Another favorite is the classic beef and egg claypot rice. Imagine thin slices of beef, perfectly marinated, mingling with the rice, ensuring every bite is tender and juicy. And just before it's served to you, a raw egg is added, creating a creamy richness. Drizzle it with the in-house soy sauce, wait for the sizzle, mix, and relish a bite of pure joy.
Visiting with friends or family? Opt for the pork bone pot, another Kwan Kee special. You can personalize it with a choice of vegetables and meat. Remember, the claypot rice is a nighttime delicacy here. To guarantee a seat and avoid long waits, it's wise to arrive early. Join us, and treat yourself to a memorable Hong Kong culinary experience.
