Honolulu HK Café is now serving in Manila! (Updated: June 2019)

Founded in 1940, Hong Kong Honolulu Cafe serves its own blend of Honolulu coffee, Hong Kong ‘stocking’ milk tea, signature egg tart, ‘modern’ pastries, buns, Hong Kong-style fried noodles and a lot more.

*Eclectic choices on display at Honolulu HK Cafe, SM Aura Premier*

I haven’t been in the wildly-beautiful streets of Hong Kong, but sure enough we’re all familiar with their unique and bold style in fashion, culture, and gastronomic pleasures. The vivid colors, rich and eclectic signature concepts, plus a lot of interesting places to visit for travelers.

Regarded as the first and original “Hong Kong Café” dining concept, Honolulu HK Café is a recognized brand in the Hong Kong noshery domain. Known for their always-sold-out Signature Egg Tarts and savory/sweet pastries, everyone’s in for a delightful treat (or feast!)

Honolulu HK Cafe’s first sweet location in Manila is located at SM Aura Premier in Taguig City. The space – though quite small, still serves its purpose. Make sure you come early and try everything on the menu! (yep, you’re getting more than egg tarts and pastries!)

I got invited to try most of the items in their menu (lucky me!). Check them out:
