Tucked away in Sai Wan, this legendary clay pot rice spot boasts being open "25 hours a day" - and judging by the never-ending crowd, we believe them! The secret? That irresistible crispy rice crust that keeps locals and tourists coming back for more. Mr. Lam / Owner of Sheung Hei: "These volcanic rocks work like nature's oven - soaking up heat to cook the rice just right. Getting that perfect crust is an art! Flip it right, and you get one golden, crunchy masterpiece." Timothy Lau / District Council Member: [Crunch sound] "Hear that? That's the sound of perfection! When they delivered my order in the actual clay pot, still sizzling...man, that first bite was pure happiness." Ms. Lee / Owner of Kwan Kee: "We've been doing this since '85 - over 40 years of perfecting our clay pot rice. It's not just food, it's our legacy." When winter hits Sai Wan, braving the line for this piping hot comfort food becomes a ritual. For Timothy, it's his secret late-night fuel stop. Timothy Lau / District Council Member: "Three of us, two pots - that's the magic number! We go for the pork bone (rich!) with frog (light!) or duck (bold!). Perfect balance. After those marathon council meetings ending at 10pm? This place saves us. Cold outside, warm inside, bellies full - suddenly those midnight meetings don't seem so bad!" Timothy's got a mission - he wants visitors to experience the real Sai Wan beyond the tourist trail. Timothy Lau / District Council Member: "Sure, Sai Wan and Kennedy Town are hot on Instagram - but there's so much more! The real magic is in our community spirit - the family-run shops, the stories behind every bite. We need to share these authentic experiences, so visitors don't just see Hong Kong, they feel it."
