August 2025: 6 New Additions to the MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong & Macau

Following the annual MICHELIN Guide ceremony in mid-March, our inspectors have unveiled six new restaurants featured in the latest MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong & Macau. Don’t forget to add them to your culinary adventure list and check them out!

MICHELIN Guide inspectors spend all year on the road uncovering the best restaurants to recommend — and what they've found is too good to keep a secret.

While the MICHELIN Guide annual distinctions — Stars, Green Stars and Bib Gourmands — granted to some of our recommended restaurants will only be revealed at the next annual ceremony, restaurants will be added to the Hong Kong selection and the Macau selection every second Wednesday of every other month.

The new venues will be featured in the MICHELIN Guide Hong Kong and Macau websites and the MICHELIN Guide mobile application (available on iOS and on Android). These locations will be highlighted with a "New" symbol for easy identification.

Ho Ho Chak

The apt moniker of this Chiu Chow restaurant is Ho Ho Chak, which means ‘delicious’ in Teochew dialect. The three brothers who run the joint also wholesale seafood and fruit, so they have reliable access to the best ingredients. The signature steamed pork patty with mud crab is loaded with buttery roe while the pork is springy and finely textured. Fried omelette with dried radish and ground pork is browned on the outside and custardy on the inside. (Right image ©Ho Ho Chak)

Sushi Takeshi

Chef Kin’s stints at famous sushi-ya in Hong Kong and Japan explain his exceptional sushi making skills and artistry. According to the oiliness of each fish, he pairs it with rice dressed in one of his two vinegar blends. A single omakase menu is served, composed entirely of ingredients flown in from Japan, such as umami-laden kuruma prawn that is perfectly cooked and boasts bouncy, juicy flesh.

Albergue 1601

The yellow façade of the century-old building contrasts well with the splashes of red adorning the stylish interior. The Portuguese chef specialises in no-frills classics, using mostly ingredients from his home country. Start with petingas fritas, or deep-fried whole baby sardines, followed by leitão assado, or crispy-skin roast suckling pig with orange, and fried potato rounds in a spicy sauce. Try also the Portuguese white wine brewed by the chef himself. (Left image ©Albergue 1601)
