The Delivery Diaries: 7 Hong Kong restaurants you didn't know existed on online delivery platforms

The Sheung Wan joint that brought the Hawaiian poke craze to Hong Kong is now bringing it straight to your door. Pokeworld's healthy bowls will arrive at your door the same way it would in-restaurant. This is a go-to option for those looking for a balanced meal with high-quality ingredients, offering a large selection of proteins, vegetables, sauces and additional toppings. We recommend dressing up your bowl with the spicy mayo or yuzu ponzu dressing. 

This international sandwich shop has always been the reliable, grab-and-go option for commuters all over Hong Kong looking for a light bite. Pret A Manger's signature wraps, salads, yogurt cups, sandwiches, baked goods, soups and fresh pressed juices like the Flu Fighter — which we recommend stocking up on right now — can be delivered straight to you. 

After a two-year hiatus, Hong Kong’s beloved retro-cool burger and shake purveyor Double D has returned and is available for home delivery. Known for their juicy beef patties and the sinfully delicious fully loaded french fries, Double D brings burger offerings such as the classic Double D burger and the beer-battered fish mac, with decadent milkshakes to wash them down. All ingredients have been sourced responsibly, so you don’t have to feel too bad about chowing down like there’s no tomorrow. 

The cult-favourite burger joint from New York made a stir when it finally made its Hong Kong debut. Awarded with the Good Egg Award in 2017, Shake Shack has been recognised as one of the companies that has committed to using cage-free eggs. A taste of NYC is closer than you think. Shake up the dinner table with the Shack Burger (signature cheeseburger), the Smoke Shack (the classic Shack Burger but pimped out with the addition of cherry pepper relish and applewood-smoked bacon) and crinkle-cut fries. The signature concretes (aka frozen custards) come in flavours that are exclusive to the city, such as milk tea and HK-style French toast. 

A good slice can be hard to come by in this city and Alvy's certainly knows how to curb a pizza craving. This cosy neighbourhood joint in Kennedy Town serves up good sourdough-based pizza and good drinks in equal measure and its casual New York neighbourhood bar vibes can be brought home. Signature pies like the MA-La Di Da Pizza (an NYC-inspired pie featuring a tangy vodka sauce and sharp pecorino) and A La Vodka pizza (a fiery number which combines savoury salumi with the numbing spice of Sichuan peppercorns) can be washed down with signature brews from Young Master.
