Loletta Lai, diamond marketing executive, picks her dining gems in Hong Kong
Lai loves contemporary and classic Cantonese food, especially roast suckling pig. She also enjoys Ukrainian and singalong Spanish cuisine, the occasional French meal and, for a guilty pleasure, Wah Fung’s chicken livers
For work, I entertain a lot and I don’t like to cook so I eat out a lot. I am not that adventurous, as I don’t want to waste time on bad dining experiences. I tend to go to the same restaurants for particular items I love. Occasionally I try out new places if I hear good comments from friends. I am not that healthy; I enjoy fatty and starchy food.

My schedule is quite packed so I tend to eat in the neighbourhood of my office and home. For breakfast at weekends, I like Congteakafe (24 Square Street, Sheung Wan, tel: 5719 8131), a Cantonese-style cafe with a modern twist. My favourite item is the pineapple bun burger with beef or fish fillet paired with hot yin yang tea. The cafe is opened up for alfresco dining during cooler months. Dogs are also welcome.
