The story
Tucked away on Yik Yam Street in Happy Valley, Cheung Hing Coffee Shop is the kind of cha chaan teng that rewards the dedicated. With a solid 3.8-star rating, it’s not flashy, but as Michael Ligier of *Hong Kong Food Guide* notes, it’s “a great spot for classic Hong Kong baked goods and milk tea.” The energy here is casual and unpretentious—exactly what you want for a quick, comforting meal.
Ligier gives a firm thumbs-up to three staples: the Bolo Bao with Butter, the Hong Kong Egg Tart, and the Milk Tea. No need to overthink it—order all three. This is old-school Hong Kong baking, done right, and the kind of spot that makes you feel like a local the moment you walk in.
