When my friend asked me where I wanted to have brunch, I pretty much had my mind set on The Flying Pan. I’ve seen a few brunch pictures on facebook and was quite intrigued and determined to make the effort to check this place out.
The Flying Pan has 2 locations in Hong Kong: Central and Wan Chai. This is their central location that I’ve visited – serving breakfast, brunch, omelettes, eggs, pancakes, waffles, variety of hot drinks for 24 hours a day – 7 days a week!

Love the diner style feel of this restaurant – from their blue tables, chairs and walls to their red and white checkered floors!
Lemonade
- This drink came with the brunch combo that I ordered
- Very sweet and slightly sour – like its suppose to be. This drink was incredibly refreshing for a hot summer day in Hong Kong
My friend and I both opted for something off their House Specialities Menu which can be turned into a combo! You choose one of their 14 brunch mains from their house specialities menu which then comes which a drink of your choice. Plus an addiction of 2 sides to accompany your main.
{Top} Eggs Guacamole w/ Avocado &Salsa ($47 HKD – $7.34 CAD / $74 HKD w/ combo – $11.56 CAD)
- My friend opted for a lemonade to drink – and the sides that accompanied the eggs guacamole were baked beans with a nice tomato soup
Eggs Benedict w/ Grilled Ham ($47 HKD – $7.34 CAD / $74 HKD w/ a combo – $11.56 CAD)
- As part of the combo, I opted for a lemonade from a variety of other freshly juices to choose from
- For my 2 sides, I opted Potatoes and Tomato Soup from 8 sides to choose from!
- The eggs were poached just right – the egg yolk was very smooth and still warm. The hollandaise sauce nicely drizzled over the benedict – not too heavy or filling
- The tomato soup was served slightly luke warm – I personally found it to be a tad salty
The Flying Pan does get pretty packed if you go at their peak times. Fortunately, I was jetlagged and woke up all the wrong hours and came in to a restaurant with lots of table lefts (YAY!). Nonetheless, I do recommend the flying pan if you’re ever wanting to have a relaxing & simple brunch with friends. I personally thought it was a great idea to see Hong Kong’s take of an American brunch while taking a break from endless eats of traditional Hong Kong food!
