Hong Kong Foodie has launched a new Tai Po Market tour.
On its third and newest culinary excursion, Hong Kong Foodie takes food lovers away from the hustle and bustle of the city areas to visit culinary gems in the New Territories in search of truly authentic local flavors.
Led by passionate local Foodie Guides, participants go off the beaten track on this insider tour to uncover six family-run eateries serving Hong Kong specialities in the suburban new town of Tai Po Market. Curated with curious Foodies in mind, this food tour is ideal for those who are more open-minded about trying less familiar local fare. Tastings include seafood dishes, snake soup and more.
“Tai Po Market is the perfect destination for our newest Foodie Tour,” said Cecilia Leung, founder and director of Hong Kong Foodie.
“Most importantly, it is home to some of Hong Kong’s favorite foodie haunts. Our goal is to help participants navigate this less visited neighborhood and make these local eateries more accessible, especially to non-Cantonese speakers.”

On this four-hour guided walking tour, aside from indulging in foodie treasures, participants will also explore historical and cultural sites in the backstreets of Tai Po Market, learning about its agricultural past and its transformation into today’s developed new town. It offers an opportunity for visitors to be immersed in this charming part of the New Territories and experience life like a true Hong Kong native.
Tai Po Market Foodie Tour has been selected by the Hong Kong Tourism Board as an approved tour product in its New Tour Product Development Scheme, a program that aims to offer unique discoveries and authentic experience to Hong Kong visitors.
The Tai Po Market Foodie Tour operates on Fridays departing at 3pm, with the first tour scheduled for Friday May 29.  Tickets are $890 for Adult Foodies (aged 15 and above), HK$640 for Young Foodies (age 5-14) and can be purchased online.
Founded in 2011, Hong Kong Foodie’s mission is to “lead hungry souls from around the world” to wander off the beaten path to taste some of Hong Kong’s favorite foods while exploring its other flavors – the history, culture and architecture of Hong Kong.
