Where to eat in Sheung Wan
Bedu
Tucked away in one of the corners of Gough Street, Bedu delights with some of Hong Kong's best Middle Eastern fare. The restaurant wraps around an open kitchen with a bar where smaller parties can watch the chefs at work while enjoying their meal. The restaurant is the perfect place to catch up with friends, not only because you can actually hear each other talk but because Bedu is known for its shareable small plates inspired by the nomadic wanderings of the Bedouin tribes.
Some of the signature dishes are the smoked hummus, the beetroot and mint labneh and the charred broccoli with crispy kale, chilli, and zhoug.
