What makes the perfect barbecued pork? We say it’s the melt-in-your-mouth skin and tender meat beneath, and this factory in Hong Kong does it just right. It's the last of its kind that still roasts pigs with traditional fire pits instead of electrical roasters. Their crispy and fragrant pork has been a crowd favorite for over 50 years.
This is the new episode of our series about established mom-and-pop eateries in China, Hong Kong edition. In the next episode, we visit a Chinese dessert restaurant that is famous for its silky egg pudding. Stay tuned!
Shop Address: Red Seasons Restaurant, No.1 Lam Tei Main St, Tuen Mun, Hong Kong
