'Bing Sutt' T-shirt by Wai Wai

The 'Bing Sutt' illustration is Tatler Hong Kong's commission for the project 'Alphabet City'. Wai Wai was delighted to illustrate B is for Bing Sutt (冰室). TAI ON CAFE ( 大安茶冰廳 ) is her first memory of a bing sutt which is closed to Gwo Laan (果欄, fruit market) and her old home in Yau Ma Tei. It is a classic cafe and over 50 years old. If you are curious about the energetic side of Yau Ma Tei, she would recommend you to have a walk-in Gwo Laan before having breakfast at TAI ON around 7 am. For food, Wai Wai would order Hong Kong Style French Toast or sandwiches; For drink, she prefers milk tea and iced coconut milk with red beans. It’s the unique taste of Hong Kong. If she leaves here one day, she would miss bing sutt and cha chaan teng (茶餐廳) very much.
