Breakfast is just more fun at a Kong Sihk Tong. This cha chaan teng, or Hong Kong-style cafe, is a big, bright, pastel playground in Flushing, where the music is loud and the milk tea is extra creamy. It has a more contemporary feel than the other HK cafes in the area, but the prices are still pretty reasonable. For $8-9, you can get a breakfast set with a hot drink and one entree, like spam soup, eggs on toast, or satay beef with instant noodles. Order a golden lava french toast for the table, too. It's a decadent dessert-for-breakfast that oozes salted egg yolk when you cut it open. There’s usually a wait on the weekends, so it’s best to come with a group and make a whole morning of it. They also have another location in Chinatown that’s cash-only.
