Ap Lei Chau Market Cooked Food Centre
Sharing a building with a market, six dai pai dong operators cook up a storm in sleepy Ap Lei Chau. Pak Kee (6-11.30pm) and Chu Kee (6pm-midnight) both offer simple but tasty dishes in the $40 to $60 range, and affordable seafood selections. You can also buy seafood from the wet market downstairs and pay them to cook it for you the way you want. Every evening, fishermen and dragon boaters come here for the cheap beer (large bottle $12 to $22) and the food. If you don’t mind plastic stools and alpha males trying to out-talk each other, this is the place to go for local flair. It’s a stone’s throw from the Hung Shing shrine.

Happy Seafood Restaurant
The innovative seafood dishes here are – would you believe? – the brainchild of a cocky 23-year-old who is the world’s youngest chef to receive a Cordon Bleu medal. Talented Lau Ka-lun is said to have played truant from school at age 11 so he could cook in his mum’s restaurant. Lau’s signature fried rice with crab roe, scallops and ostrich meat ($88) is literally bursting with creativity. He also does wonders with oysters, a Lau Fau Shan speciality.

Fok Loi Kui Seafood Restaurant
Business is so good here that the owner has to rent extra space nearby to seat his customers. Still, come sundown, there’ll be tables on the sidewalks and SUVs abandoned in the middle of the road by diners eager for the mouth-watering sautéed razor clams in black-bean sauce, the steamed scallops or the fried squid with salt and pepper. There’s no menu. Just point and ask for the price. The owner, Mr ‘Cowboy’ Kee, speaks a little English.

Fish Bar
Seafood by the pool is what you get here, and the harbour view is a bonus. The signature jumbo shrimp cocktail with avocado and cocktail sauce (around HK$150) gets you ready for the seasonal selection of imported fish, cooked in your preferred recipes. The oysters are so fresh they shrivel when poked by a fork. Carnivores may still find solace in the freshly grilled rib-eye steak.

Man Fung Seafood Restaurant
You can't judge a book by its cover, but you can certainly judge a seafood restaurant by its tanks. The live seafood is displayed outside, all seemingly having a good life in what looks like pristine water, until you end it by sending it to the kitchen. Don't be surprised to see your fellow diners diving into basketball-size spider crabs.

Kam Kau Kee Seafood Restaurant
Chef Kam shops every morning for ingredients to make dishes such as deep-fried soft-bone fish, typhoon shelter tofu and steamed chicken, to make sure that the hikers and divers who frequent his restaurant after a day out will be greeted with wholesome food and cheap beer ($10 per large bottle) in the least pretentious surroundings.

Chuen Kee Seafood Restaurant
This is the plush new branch of the Michelin-recommended Chuen Kee (53 Hai Pong St; 11am-11pm), the granddaddy of Sai Kung seafood restaurants. The elaborate display of fish and crustaceans at the door may make you cringe, but cringe will turn to crave once you’ve had a bite of the cooked versions.

Lamcombe Seafood Restaurant
Lamcombe has been serving up tasty fried squid and steamed scallops on the half-shell for over 10 years. Though slightly pricier than similar establishments nearby, portions are big and the location is more rustic. Vegetarians will love the eggplant and tofu hotpot.

Beira Rio Wine Bar & Grill
Along the foodie waterfront of this Island East neighbourhood, this restaurant looks the classiest and the food is reliable. Kick back with a glass of chilled white wine and a seafood mountain (around HK$270, good for two) and there should be no complaints.

Star Seafood Restaurant
A cement building shaped like a giant boat, this is your quintessential tourist restaurant. The food might not be the best you've had, but the experience would certainly be one of a kind.

Sam Ka Tsuen Seafood Precinct
The ‘village’ of Lei Yue Mun is one of Hong Kong’s prime seafood venues; around two-dozen fish restaurants line narrow, winding Lei Yue Mun Praya Rd overlooking the typhoon shelter. The area is a colourful and lively place to dine by the water at night and is always busy. To get here from the Yau Tong MTR station, use exit A2 and follow Cha Kwo Ling Rd and Shung Shun St south for 15 minutes or catch green minibus 24M from outside the station. Bus 14C links the Yau Tong Centre halfway down the hill with the Kwun Tong MTR station.
