Hong Kong Restaurant in Milford

April 2nd, 2008 Perry Sandoval

Last Friday, a friend and I went to Hong Kong Restaurant in Milford for lunch. It’s just off the Post Road, across from the Connecticut Post Mall, next to the Krispy Kreme. I really, really like Chinese food! I’ve had Chinese food from San Francisco to Paris. This place holds its own with all of them. I’ve been to several of the high-brow types with white table clothes and sublime decor. Those are great. However, I continually find myself gravitating toward places like Hong Kong. They usually specialize in take-out. They rarely have tables on the premises. These places just seem more honest. It’s food to eat, not food to show.

Anyway, he had the egg foo young and I had the boneless pork ribs. Both meals came with fried rice and a beverage. I’ve eaten here before so I knew what to expect. The ribs are always the same, tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. I’ve never had egg foo young so my buddy graciously cut a piece for me to try. I liked it. If you like eggs and omelets I think you’ll like egg foo young. For those not familiar with Chinese cooking it’s like a deep fried omelet made with vegetables and sometimes meat and served with a brown gravy. It’s a heavier flavor than a traditional American breakfast egg dish. I’ll have it again next time.

The service is great. The prices are very reasonable. The two of us ate for less than 14 bucks. If you like hot foods try their Mei Fung. It’s great. I hope you’ll try Hong Kong the next time you’re in Milford. The restaurant is in a small shopping center at the intersection of Red Bush Lane and Boson Post Road.
