Alice's Kitchen Serves Up Hong Kong-Style Diner Food With a Side of Nostalgia
"Alice's Kitchen, which has locations in Temple City and Monterey Park, leans into Hong Kong nostalgia in both its menu and decor. The dining room at the Temple City location is surrounded by faux storefronts and market stalls with Cantonese letters lit in neon; settling in to eat here feels like having a meal in the bustling Mong Kok district."
"For breakfast, nothing feels more comforting than pork and preserved egg congee; one bowl can be enough to share. Expect savory and jelly-like pops of black century eggs alongside tender pork. Spicy salt clings to the craggy edges of fried squid while chopped chiles and green onions provide an allium-fueled kick. Jumbo pineapple buns, fitted with a cold slab of butter and covered in a sugar crust, can double as breakfast or dessert."
Alice's Kitchen recreates a Hong Kong street-market atmosphere across Temple City and Monterey Park locations with neon-lit Cantonese signage and faux storefronts. The menu features classic Hong Kong comfort dishes that blend Western and Eastern tastes, with breakfast and lunch offerings that are affordable and shareable. Signature items include pork and preserved egg congee, fried squid with spicy salt and chopped chiles, jumbo pineapple buns with butter, pork chop or char siu sandwiches, and seafood fried noodles with crunchy-to-silky textures. Weekend meals accommodate larger groups around a lazy Susan. Strongly brewed Hong Kong milk tea pairs well with the savory and sweet selections. Weekly specials and combo deals add value.
