While not as expensive as 5 star hotel restaurant prices there are certainly some high quality establishments that may strain the wallet of the average visitors to Hong Kong, but that is mixed in with cheap eats and fast food joints as well so there is a good mix. Approach Lan Kwan Fong by walking west along Queen's Road Central until you reach this large junction:
Looking up, which is south, you are looking along D'Aguilar street (named after a 19th century Lieutenant Governor of HK) -- this the way you should walk. On your left is the strangely quasi-gothic Entertainment Building -- be a tourist and tilt your head to look straight up at the odd looking spires!
As you go higher up you start to see the food outlets, starting with fast food such as KFC and then Ben & Jerries (American icecream) and Pret A Manger (British sandwiches). On the other side you will see more big names like Haagen-Dazs as well as smaller bars and pubs that only exist here like D26 named after it's address on the street.
The side streets hold lots of different types of eating and drinking places. In Wing Wah Lane you will find not only "The Plaza" which is a tall building with several restaurants, but also along at the end of it a strange outside dining area that looks like this.
Of course these are the cheap places to eat - and one of the few choices for "outside dining" but not exactly very special places to eat I must admit. Looking for similar dining experience but with better ambience? Try Stanley Market!
