	Many of us who grew up in Hong Kong will have nostalgic memories of visting this restaurant with our parents. Not much has changed since then. You can still sample Western dishes interpreted in a Chinese way and meet waiters who have been there all along. Old favourities include Portuguese Chicken. Roasted pigeon, Soy sauce Chicken wings and Souffles big enough for four.
	The menus of Tai Ping Koon have long offered a tentative exploration of Western cuisine. Heavy cream soup based and hearty servings of meat, often presented on a sizzling platter, give a "foreign" touch, while familiar Chinese ingredients - there are 38 rice dishes alone on the Tai Ping Koon menu - provide a comfort factor.

Started in 1860, the restaurant is determined to preserve the authencity of this Cantonese Western Food restaurant. They use a special soya sauce made from a secret recipe that distinguishes them, in part, from the rest. We are told they've earned the loyalty of celebrities like Chow Yun Fat, Jacky Chan. Other favourites include Baked Portuguese Style Chicken, Swiss Sauce Chicken Wings, Smoked Promfret, Baked Rice and Baked Souffle.
