Fatty Ox HK Kitchen – Masterfully Executed Beef Brisket & Roast Meats!
January 30, 2020
With over 260 stalls in Chinatown Food Complex, getting to Fatty Ox HK Kitchen is like weaving through a maze. However, the journey is more than worth it, for some truly awesome Hong Kong style Cantonese noodle dishes and Roast Meats await!
Here are some tips for finding Fatty Ox: Once you walk up the staircase to level 2, angle towards the top right hand side of the hawker centre. Chinatown Food Complex also has the stall numbers for each row on display, so use these to your advantage when looking for a stall in this sprawling food centre!
One of the benefits of Fatty Ox HK Kitchen being in such an obscure corner of the hawker centre is that the tables nearby are often empty. A cool breeze can also be felt when sitting around here, making for a great dining experience!
Fatty Ox HK Kitchen is most famous for its Beef Brisket and Tendon Noodles ($4). The dish comes with a generous portion of egg noodles, which were springy and did not have a strong alkaline taste. These noodles served as the perfect accompaniment to the star of the show, the tender and flavourful beef brisket! The brisket, which is normally a tougher cut of beef, was stewed for many hours until it was super tender. The braising sauce was thick and luscious, with a deep, savoury flavour which complemented the egg noodles perfectly. The beef tendon was soft and melted in my mouth. Make sure to get some green chilli for a punch of acidity!
Another quintessential Cantonese staple is Roast Meats. And Fatty Ox HK Kitchen serves up some stellar meat offerings as well. I ordered a platter of Roast Duck, Char Siu and Soya Sauce Chicken ($5 each). You can also order these meats individually, or as a meal with the egg noodles.
Despite facing stiff competition from more famous soya sauce chicken stalls such as the Michelin-starred Hawker Chan and Maria Virgin Chicken, Fatty Ox holds its own. Its rendition of soya sauce chicken is definitely worth a try! What sets it apart is its liberal application of a chopped ginger and spring onion sauce, which is insanely aromatic and tasty.
The Roast Duck and Char Siu were also pretty good. The Roast Duck had a nice, glistening skin, while the Char Siu had a nice serving of crispy charred bits that I really enjoyed. However, these two meats are ordinary in comparison to the stellar Beef Brisket and Soya Sauce Chicken.
With Fatty Ox HK Kitchen serving up such high quality dishes, you don’t have to pay restaurant prices for classic Cantonese fare. So come on down to Chinatown Food Centre and have your fill of delicious Roast Meats and Noodles!
