Yau Ma Tei's Popular Middle Eastern Cuisine

This is my second visit to this restaurant. Although the seating is limited, the food is unique and flavorful. One of the dishes is a very Indian-style snack called Dahi Puri. It consists of crispy shells filled with yogurt, spices, and crispy noodle bits. It's quite delicious and worth ordering again. Next, I tried the Nepalese dumplings, which can be steamed or pan-fried. They are already very flavorful without needing any dipping sauce. Lastly, the chicken salad has a hint of spiciness and offers a refreshing taste.

🍜 Yau Ma Tei specialty stone pot rice noodle shop Do colorful neon tubes remind you of something? What comes to my mind is the color of Hong Kong. Xiao Cao Shi Baguai in Yau Ma Tei combines traditional and creative Hong Kong-style steamed rice and stone pot rice noodles, as well as a series of snacks and skewers. The prices are affordable, making it a restaurant with a very high CP value in the area and a good place for my late-night snack. 🐟 Spicy Sichuan Peppercorn Crispy Fish Skin $42 The crispy cold fish skin has the aroma and numbing sensation brought by Sichuan peppercorns, and is rich in layers. It is a good choice as an appetizer. 🍜 Optional stone pot rice noodles (satay soup) from $32 There are 8 soup bases to choose from in the store, including the rare Bak Kut Teh soup base. Personally, I prefer the richer satay soup with a lot of gravy. The aroma of peanuts with a hint of spiciness is very tasty. 🍚 Steamed chicken with cotton fish maw, cordyceps and lotus leaf rice $62 The lotus leaf rice in cage is definitely a righteous choice, and the portion is generous. The white rice has the aroma of lotus leaves, is colorful, and looks attractive. 🍢 Skewers Chicken skewers $24 (2 skewers) Chicken wings $18 (1 skewer) Chicken Kidney Skewers $32 (2 skewers) Personally, I prefer crispy chicken kidneys with a prominent cumin aroma. Food and Beverage (Special Drinks with Meal + $18) 🍋 Duck Shit Lemon Tea 🍊 A bucket of fruit tea The drink is served in a large cup, with a sweet and sour taste, and goes perfectly with the delicious meal. 🍽 Restaurant: Xiaocao Shibaguai 🌐Address: G/F, Ning Building, 525-543A Nathan Road, Yau Ma Tei 🐮 #cowingEat in Yau Ma Tei #hkblogger #hkbloggers #hkigers #hkkol #852kol #hkinfluencer #hkfoodblogger #camerafoodfirst #foodie #foodie #yaumateifoodies #xiaocaoshibaoke #AprilGoodDestinations2025
