Jimmy's Kitchen is well-known in Hong Kong, having its roots established in 1928. The current location in Central has been running since 1976, and the atmosphere - dim lighting, dark wood furnishing, and carpet - evokes Hong Kong's past as a British colony. The food served at Jimmy's is described as 'colonial cuisine', and there is a wide selection of classical dishes like spaghetti bolognaise, fish and chips, curries, steak, and roast dinners. This is the sort of place where the classics rule, so don't expect anything innovative or experimental. Service was courteous and faultless, and the food was delicious. If you're in search for comfort British food in Hong Kong, then Jimmy's Kitchen is the place to go.
