Since it’s only a few days, and I don’t gravitate to Cantonese elsewhere, I should probably go for good examples in my price range while in HK.

You can find Cantonese food in Hong Kong and in China’s Guangdong Province.

Cantonese cuisine

Eg. Dim sum, roasted meat: pork, goose, duck and roasted suckling pig.
These are dishes most people would like.
Dishes suitable especially if you are eating alone: Congee (rice soup), beef chow fun, wanton.
Other dishes like hotpot, or seafood from Pei Fung Tong (in the past in causeway, there was a style of cooking from people who lived on the boat).

There is also Hong Kong food, it can be a mix of western and Chinese food. It can also be snacks like fish ball type of street food, or claypot rice.

Hong Kong cuisine

A very good example of these are egg tart, or egg waffles.

Also, there are French toast or Western toast or the famous milk tea.

The list is long, if I were you, I would try to first define what type of food I would like to eat, then choose the place accordingly.

Since you live in Tsim Sha Tsui, with MTR (metro), you can go everywhere quickly.

I would avoid to eat at the Peak though.
