Chui Yuen Kei Macaroni

Every time after a weekend Coloane trial hiking, we would definitely go for a quick visit “The furious Macaroni guy”; Coloane Chui Yuen Macaroni Cha Chaan Teng. Though it sounds scary; the name actually came from my husband one time when he hurried rushing for his “food order”. The shop go extremely busy and causes this old folk made a big fuss about him; he threw a stack of paper and a pen telling my hubby write his order on a sheet of paper placed on the table. After then, he gradually slowly create his Macaroni ready for our table; One one to note, if you’re in a rush, please do do somewhere else.

This is how the neighboring placed their orders as well; is also one of the common attitude ordering food in one of the local Cha Chaan Teng. Well, this the childhood memory after all, which is so precious to me.

Actually Old Chui is not scary at all their homemade oxtail soup is always their signature dish; The rests goes to his secret hidden stainless steel house appearance; the chipped plates and utensils; his old style operating their businesses, etc. All these are things that I can’t stop myself reaching Coloane enjoying early breakfasts in such tiny place.
