East Point City’s Culinary Galaxy: 9 Diverse Eateries from Taiwan to Japan

Tseung Kwan O’s East Point City has quietly transformed into a gastronomic destination, offering everything from spaceship-themed yakiniku to Taiwanese cave dining, Japanese set meals, and Hong Kong-style ramen. Here’s your guide to nine must-visit restaurants under one roof.

While many shoppers head to East Point City for retail therapy, the mall’s food scene has become a destination in its own right. With over a dozen cuisines represented, the complex at 8 Chung Wa Road in Hang Hau now caters to everyone from budget-conscious students to families seeking authentic regional flavours. From a 2,100-square-foot Taiwanese innovator to a Japanese chain with 700 outlets, here are the standout spots.

Taiwanese Cave Dining at Manshan Taipei

The first stop is Manshan Taipei, a cavern-themed restaurant that transports diners into a mountain grotto. Spanning 2,100 square feet, it serves creative Taiwanese fare using fresh, natural ingredients. The signature braised pork rice with pineapple and onsen egg balances richness with fruity acidity. Other highlights include hand-shredded salted duck,红烧牛肉面, and a stirring沙茶 beef noodle dish. Open daily from 7:30 am to 10 pm.

Spaceship Yakiniku at EaT Yakiniku

For a dining experience that feels like a sci-fi movie, EaT Yakiniku delivers. The restaurant is decked out with extraterrestrial decor and uses a conveyor belt system shaped like a spaceship to deliver grilled meats. Value-conscious diners can enjoy a牛五花套餐 for as low as HK$48, which includes 100 grams of beef belly, seaweed soup, kimchi, and rice. Premium options feature Miyazaki wagyu, Kagoshima black pork, and Prime Grade beef belly. Open 11 am to 10 pm.

Hong Kong-Style Ramen at Lok Noodles

Lok Noodles puts a local twist on Japanese ramen. Its signature amber soy sauce broth is simmered for two hours, resulting in a rich, savoury soup paired with both pork and duck chashu. The coriander ramen is a must-try for herb lovers: a house-made coriander paste blended with chicken white broth, served with coriander noodles and an avalanche of fresh cilantro. Other options include花雕醉鸡汤拉面 and真熬鸡白汤拉面. Find it at Shop 185.

Fresh Sashimi Don at Kaigai Don
