A fantastic, friendly and informative tour. We ended up going from small group (2) to solo (just me!) as my partner was unwell and were accommodated easily. All of the food was fantastic and our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. The whole experience felt like a casual stroll around a friend’s neighbourhood.

We are a foody family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) and do food tours all over the world...often multiple tours in different parts of town in the same city. Our food tour with Carrie on January 2, 2025 in the Sham Shui Po District was excellent! Carrie is amazing...super engaging, fun, and knowledgeable about all things food and Hong Kong. She was an absolute delight to be with over the course of the 3.5 hours at 6 different locations. We really wanted to try some Hong Kong snacks that weren't part of the tour and she was super accommodating helping us understand what to purchase and where, then helping us do so along the way. Meanwhile, the food on this tour was DELICIOUS! It was great to try some really authentic Cantonese food in long-regarded local establishments. We actually took another tour with Hong Kong Foodies a few days earlier in the Central district and liked this tour better: the food was tastier, the restaurants and their history more interesting, and Sham Shui Po is more vibrant culturally since it's a working class area and feels like stepping back in time to the 1960s. Couldn't recommend Carrie and this food tour more.

My husband and I had a great time learning a bit about the Sham Shui Po neighborhood and culture, as well as experiencing several new foods. Every bit of this 3.5 hours was a delightful experience.

Excellent food tour visiting spots we would never have found on our own. The difference between the pineapple bun we had with our guide, as compared to another we had later in the trip was huge! A nice way to start off our holiday.

We had a brilliant time on our tour - our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly and all the food we tried was delicious. It was a great way to explore a lesser-visited part of the city and see how locals live.

I loved every minute of this tour. Our guide was informative and friendly, the food was delicious and the insights about HK culture and this under-visited neighbourhood were fascinating. Highly recommended!

I enjoyed the tour. It was nice to explore Sham Shui Po and try the local food. Carrie was friendly and the pace of the tour was just nice. Towards the end of the tour, it started raining heavily so I'm happy we managed to see the area before the rain. Thank you for the good time.

Highly recommended tour if you want to a glimpse of the real Hong Kong from a local POV Guide: Carrie was great! We learned a lot about local history andculture aside from the food. She was very bubbly yet professional throughout the tour. Food: Originally booked the tour just to eat at Hop Yik Tai (cheong fun) and it did not disappoint! Some of the best rice rolls I’ve ever had. All the food was awesome ( I was already full after the 3rd stop) It was a bit warm for mid autumn but it was a great experience nonetheless. Worth the price. Will probably book the Central & Sheung Wan tour the next time I come back.

Excellent tour! My guide was Carrie and she's the best!! All the stops were a bit different and they were all delicious gems! Really fun to learn about food history and culture. One of my highlights of my visit to HK.

Booking: This tour was a last minute booking for us. So I greatly appreciated Cecilia (our guide) for accommodating us. Since our request was a Sunday tour (which was not really done), Cecilia went out of her way to check with the different establishments on how we can make the Sunday tour happen despite this being a very busy day in Sham Shui Po. We even had some special arrangement with one of the establishments where we were allowed to enter before opening time. Guide: Cecilia was a great guide! She not only stuck to her knowledge of the tour but she gave us a lot more stories and insights about the area and Hong Kong. She even answered some of my mom’s non-tour related questions (like where to get good roast goose, where to shop for this and that, etc). Most importantly, she made us feel very comfortable. Tour: I’ve been to HK a number of times, but I learned so much about HK’s food culture in this tour more than all of my trips to HK combined. The food were delicious and fresh…not salty unlike other Chinese restaurants that are generous with their MSGs. My favorite was the Pineapple Bun and the noodles, but everything was really good. If I had a bigger appetite I think I would’ve ordered more. Overall: Highly recommended tour. This is the first time I’ve booked a food tour and this set the bar high for me - not just the food but the experience we had was really good. If you’re new to HK or maybe have not had a formal introduction to HK food culture then this could be a good tour for you. It’s nothing fine dining, the food was simple but it’s a great way to get started into the HK food culture.

It was amazing! Cecilia gave us great insights into the world of tea and even as complete beginners, we felt welcomed and we learned a lot! The time and energy that Cecilia put into our ceremony was more than we could have expected. We would highly recommend booking this event if you are interested in Hong Kong culture!

We went to 6 locations with our informative and friendly guide, Carrie. Each location served tasty and interesting Chinese cuisine. From the Pineapple Bun to Egg noodle with Mushrooms, the food adventure was very enjoyable

Loved our few hours wandering Sham Shui Po with our guide Carrie - the food we tried along the way was delicious (we would never have found those places without this tour) and she gave us lots of interesting info on the neighbourhood too, would highly recommend

The food tour with Carrie was great. We went to 5 small restaurants that we would never have visited without Carrie. We learned a lot about the Sham Shui Po district and its people. As Carrie grew up here, she knows her way around and had already been to the restaurants with her parents as a child. The restaurants for the tour were carefully selected and all have a long family history. We were also allowed to watch some dishes being prepared, such as dumplings or coffee and got the opportunity to ask questions to the chefs (Carrie translated 😅). In addition to the restaurants, we also visited other small family-run stores, such as the stores selling medicinal fish products. 👉 A clear recommendation! Thank you for this trip Carrie!

I went on this tour with an Italian foodie friend visiting from New York. We both had a great time. Our guide, Carrie, was very knowledgeable as she said she grew up in the area. Because of the relationship with the restaurants and vendors, Carrie was able to bring us to the back of house to see how things were prepared. We didn't feel like we were intruding as all the restaurant and store owners were very friendly and were expecting us. Even though I am from Hong Kong, I still learnt a lot about the origins and preparation of local foods. And everything was yummy!! I highly recommend this tour to all visitors and locals as well!
