[2025 Hong Kong Restaurant] Travel Guide for Parallel (Updated Oct)

I went to Kwun Tong to find beautiful coffee and desserts. I recently tried Parallel, a hipster-style coffee shop. The most surprising thing was their Portuguese tart. Parallel coffee shop Address: Shop 302, Kwun Tong Road, No. 414, One Pacific Centre, 3/F, Kwun Tong, Hong Kong Signature dishes: Portuguese tarts (10 points recommended!), hand-brewed coffee, fine desserts Environment: Hipster shop, simple decoration with a touch of Nordic feel, with a large glass of natural light, spacious place, very suitable for chill with friends Opening hours: Monday to Sunday 8:00-18:30 Price: Portuguese tarts $28/piece, hand-brewed coffee from $40, desserts $40-$60 Comment The Portuguese tart is the highlight of the whole trip. The egg is heavy and the skin is super crispy. You won't regret it. The coffee has quality and rich flavor layers, not the dead flavors of the usual chain stores. The overall feeling is comfortable, the service is courteous, the crowd is not too crowded, best for sitting leisurely for a whole afternoon. tips The Portuguese tarts are freshly baked every day and sell out quickly. It is recommended to come early or make a reservation first. If you want to eat dessert slowly and wait for coffee, it is quietest after lunch. Weekends are usually more crowded. If you want to take pictures with a hipster feel, choose weekdays! #Hong Kong Food #Portuguese Tart Control #Kwun Tong Boutique Coffee #Hipster Shop #Dessert Recommendation #Coffee Tour

This restaurant specializes in French fusion semi-buffet dining, starting at $325, which includes a main course, soup, and unlimited access to the salad bar. It also features cold seafood and cold cuts. The spacious and stylish environment, with floor-to-ceiling windows and wooden decor, creates a chill vibe that feels like an escape from the bustling Kwun Tong. The highlight is undoubtedly the salad bar—featuring jade whelks, blue mussels, smoked salmon, and a variety of cheese platters. It's a paradise for salad lovers! However, to be honest, the quality of the cold seafood is average. The shrimp and whelks are fresh enough, but don't expect lobster or abalone-level delicacies. They work well as decent appetizers.👌 We ordered the saffron crab meat risotto and shrimp cheese wontons. The crab meat risotto was a delightful surprise—the rice was soft and infused with the sweetness of crab roe, beautifully garnished with colorful petals, making it almost too pretty to eat! The wontons were indulgently delicious, bursting with shrimp and creamy cheese filling. The lobster sauce was so rich you'd want to lick the plate, and the salmon roe added an extra touch! That said, there are some downsides. By 8:30 PM, the salad bar was already being cleared, and staff kept asking if they could take away plates before we were done, making it feel rushed⏰. The salad bar wasn't replenished much, leaving a sense of emptiness towards the end. Overall, the main courses are high-quality, while the salad bar is just average. It's a good choice for casual gatherings without breaking the bank. The service and ambiance are genuinely commendable. Although the staff were quick to clear plates, they were friendly and attentive! If you enjoy French cuisine and cold seafood, this is a hidden gem in Kwun Tong.
