Jordan, Hong Kong｜Funky Monkey

Came here during Diwali which made the entertainment great. My girlfriend and I and one of the best cocktails - ‘Monkey colada’- got to try it! (I don’t like pina colada)

Obviously I was attracted here by the Tiki Tiki style cockails and Nepalese food.When I got there, it was funky as expected with lots of colourful monkeys everywhere. Sadly as my friend wasn't adventurous we ordered the non Nepalese food, otherwise I would have ordered the momos and Nepalese noodles. Anyway, we had Peri Peri chicken and fish tacos. The chicken was fantastic, it was half a chicken smothered with their Peri Peri sauce which I really liked because it was really spicy and if you have tried Nepalese Momos, the sauce tastes like that. The sweet potato wedges were a bit disappointing though because I would prefer proper potatoes to match the chicken. The fish tacos were battered fish drizzled with sour cream on top of a bed of julienne cabbage. Again using that Peri Peri sauce enhanced it a bit more even though there were fresh chopped chilis on the fish so watch out. Finished with the drinks and dessert. The Monkey colada was heavenly because it was sweet so I liked it. The Skull and Bones was refreshing and strong. Dessert was cheesecake. It had a hint of caramel/toffee so I really liked it.

This is a great place! Love the Nepalese atmosphere and food. The staff is great and the owner delightful and full of surprises. Good live music on Saturdays... Well I'm only here for a short while but it's basically been my HQ for 2 weeks now. Come and see for yourselves. You have to try (and love 😘) the momo ( Nepalese dumplings)! They're the best!
