Kowloon Restaurants
Where to Eat in Kowloon
From high tea at the Peninsula to dim sum in a back alley, Kowloon pretty much has it all when it comes to dining out. The number of once ubiquitous 'dai pai dong' food stalls and noodle stands selling congee and rice has now dwindled down but that doesn't mean you cannot get good street food. As for fine dining, Kowloon is well known for a host of air-conditioned, well-appointed specialty restaurants – a lot with spectacular views of the harbour and city.
Aqua Roma
Aqua Roma focuses on modern Italian cooking from the south of the country. Located in Kowloon’s groovy One Peking, Aqua has ultra-stylish interiors, stunning harbour and city vistas, and its innovative combination of Italian and Japanese cuisine is quite something. The restaurant is a contemporary tribute to Italian chic with tiered banquette seating guaranteeing an uninterrupted harbour view from each and every table.
