The Michelin Guide Hong Kong & Macau unveils its Bib Gourmand winners for 2024

The highly anticipated Michelin Guide Hong Kong & Macau 2024 has unveiled the list of Bib Gourmand winners, showcasing the culinary excellence and value-for-money dining experiences in these gastronomic cities. A total of 77 restaurants have been recognised, with 67 in Hong Kong and 10 in Macau, for their exceptional offerings that combine quality and affordability. This is defined as “a high-quality three-course meal” excluding drinks for a maximum of HK$400. Of these, ten are new additions, with seven in Hong Kong and three in Macau.

Among the exciting new additions to the Bib Gourmand list is Ăn Chơi, a Vietnamese eatery that captures the vibrant atmosphere of Vietnamese street stalls. Run by a Chinese-Vietnamese couple, Ăn Chơi is known for its bánh mì sandwiches and regional variations of phở, offering authentic flavours and a true taste of Vietnam.

Cheung Hing Kee in Tsim Sha Tsui has been awarded for its take on sheng jian bao, while Little Napoli, a recent transition from the Michelin Selected category to Bib Gourmand, impressed Michelin's inspectors with its Neapolitan pizzas and street foods such as ripieno fritto and panuozzo.

Other new entrants include Man Yuen, a hidden gem located in East Kowloon; despite its location in a public housing estate, it offers exceptional Cantonese classics delivered by the talented kitchen and front-of-house teams. Twins Liangpi Limited, which recently moved to Mong Kok, has also secured the Bib Gourmand distinction thanks to its slippery glass noodles dressed in a secret blend of chilli vinegar.

Returning to the Bib Gourmand list is the iconic Sang Kee, which has relocated to Wan Chai but continues to impress with its renowned salt-baked chicken, pork liver with wolfberry leaves blanched in stock, and baked fish intestine with egg. Sang Kee Foods in the Western District is another Bib Gourmand recipient known for its Chiuchow-style marinated goose, offering a range of goose-based delicacies for a unique dining experience.

In Macau, Kapok stands out as a newly recognised restaurant specialising in traditional Cantonese favourites such as har gow (shrimp dumplings) and white sugar sponge. Serving Portuguese-Macanese classics in sharing portions, Restaurante Litoral in Taipa received a distinction too for its Carne Alentejana and African chicken dishes. Lastly, Son Tak Kong, a revered institution since 1979, continues to delight patrons with authentic Shun Tak cuisine with offerings like the signature creamy fish soup and sticky rice with sakura shrimps and pine nuts.
