Gold Mui Kee Sea Food Stall is an indoor rendition of a traditional Dai Pai Dong (大排檔). It retains the very essence of these classic Hong Kong eateries - delectable dishes, inviting round table settings, and cordial service. Situated in Tsim Sha Tsui, it offers a laid-back space where you can unwind after a hectic day and relish an authentic Hong Kong-style supper.

Our Recommendations

This spot offers all the common Dai Pai Dong dishes like Stir-Fried Clams with Black Bean Sauce (豉椒炒蜆) and Steamed Scallop with Garlic (蒜蓉蒸扇貝). However, Gold Mui Kee also introduces innovative twists to conventional fare. Their Stuffed Donut (鬼馬油炸鬼), for example, combines two unlikely ingredients: Chinese fried donuts and cuttlefish paste. The crispy, typically breakfast-eaten Chinese donut pairs uniquely with the chewy cuttlefish paste, a snack common in coastal Chinese cities. This fusion creates a distinctive dish that delivers a harmonious medley of textures.

Fighting Bowls?

Nothing complements the meal better than a cold beer. Locals believe that deep-fried food is heat-inducing or 'hot-air' (熱氣), in traditional Chinese medicine terminology. Beer, often humorously referred to as the 'foreigner's herbal tea', perfectly balances this 'heat'. At Gold Mui Kee, beer is served in chilled bowls rather than conventional glasses. These bowls are endearingly known as 'fighting bowls' (戰鬥碗). As you finish your drink, you'll find the Chinese character for 'win' (勝) at the bottom - a playful nod to the friendly competition of who can drink the most and fastest!
