A nice spot for tea if you have a sweet tooth.  The pastries and desserts were great.  The savories were lacking in both taste and creativity.

Tim Ho Wan 添好運
Time: 8pm
Place: Shop 12A, Hong Kong Station (Podium Level 1, IFC Mall) , Central

Sorely disappointed.  Michelin star, what?

Overrated by far.  If there aren't any queues and you want all day dim sum, then Tim Ho Wan is a reasonable choice.  But the actual quality of the items are at best, mediocre, compared to the thousands of other options in Hong Kong.
