Hong Kong’s beloved fast-food chain rolls out a limited-time siu mei deal, offering a whole roasted chicken and half a catty of honey-glazed char siu for just $79, plus complimentary rice, from July 14 to July 20.
Café de Coral has revived one of its most popular promotions, giving diners a chance to enjoy a classic Cantonese siu mei combo at a steep discount. From July 14 to July 20, the chain will offer a whole roasted chicken paired with half a catty (about 300 grams) of honey-glazed char siu for just HK$79, with two free bowls of white rice included. The deal is available for both dine-in and takeaway during designated time slots each day, while stocks last.
The Siu Mei Combo That’s Back by Popular Demand
This flash promotion, widely shared on Facebook groups such as 新•大家樂討論區 and discussion forums like LIHKG, has already generated buzz among Hong Kong’s budget-conscious food lovers. Known for its juicy, flame-grilled char siu and tender roast chicken, Café de Coral’s siu mei offerings are a staple for quick family dinners or last-minute “cheung liu” (takeaway add-ons) for home meals.
The $79 set includes:
- One whole roasted chicken
- Half a catty of honey-glazed char siu
- Two free bowls of white rice
For those seeking an even lighter option, the chain is also offering half a catty of char siu for just $32—a price point that rivals many traditional siu mei shops.
Add-Ons and Upgrades
Customers can further enhance their meal with a range of siu mei side dishes starting from HK$10. Choices include:
- $10 – Soy-marinated duck tongues (lou sui duck tongues)
- $12 – Soy-marinated chicken wings and red sausages
For those looking to splurge, Café de Coral is also offering a half-price upgrade on Lee Kum Kee’s Supreme Abalone in Oyster Sauce—add HK$84 to your order to receive a pack of six large abalones.
Timing Is Everything
The promotion runs for seven consecutive days, but availability is limited to specific time windows each day. These windows have not been publicly listed in full, but past flash sales have typically occurred during late afternoon and early evening hours, from around 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM. The chain advises customers to check official announcements or in-store signage for exact timings.
“We’ve seen strong demand for these siu mei combos in previous promotions,” said a Café de Coral spokesperson in a recent Facebook post. “We recommend arriving early or ordering ahead to avoid disappointment.”
Why This Matters for Hong Kong’s Dining Scene
Café de Coral’s aggressive pricing reflects a broader trend among Hong Kong’s fast-food chains: intense competition for value-conscious consumers. With inflation nudging up grocery prices, family-sized meal deals like this one offer a rare opportunity to enjoy restaurant-quality siu mei at a fraction of the cost.
According to market data from Euromonitor, Hong Kong’s fast-food sector saw a 5.3% year-on-year growth in 2025, driven largely by promotions and loyalty programs. Café de Coral, alongside rivals like Fairwood and Maxim’s MX, has been at the forefront of this trend, rolling out flash sales on everything from roast meats to milk tea.
For context, a whole roasted chicken at a traditional siu mei shop typically costs between $90 and $130, while half a catty of char siu often runs $50 to $70. Café de Coral’s combined offer represents a savings of roughly 40% compared to market averages.
How to Make the Most of the Deal
To ensure you don’t miss out:
- Mark your calendar: July 14 to July 20, 2026
- Note the time windows: Check Café de Coral’s official Facebook page or in-store signage for daily sale hours
- Order early: Quantities are limited; popular time slots may sell out within hours
- Consider takeaway: The set is ideal for “cheung liu” (adding dishes to a home-cooked meal)
- Pair with add-ons: The $10 lou sui duck tongues are a crowd favourite
What’s Next?
While Café de Coral has not confirmed whether this promotion will return later in the year, similar flash sales have historically been repeated seasonally. In the meantime, rival chains are also rolling out their own deals: Maxim’s MX recently launched a siu mei flash sale featuring roasted squab and soy chicken starting at $33, while Fairwood has introduced a $10 milk tea promotion at select branches.
