The essence of Hong Kong-style cuisine with a modern touch.

At the corner of Broadway and Columbus Avenue in San Francisco’s Chinatown, a family legacy found new life. For over three decades, Raymond and Mimi Owyang devoted themselves to running New Sun Hong Kong, a cherished Hong Kong-style restaurant. By 2020, the pandemic forced its closure, and as they neared retirement, the couple considered stepping away for good.

But their son-in-law, Eugene Lau, had a different vision. Coming from a long line of Chinatown restaurateurs himself, Eugene saw the restaurant as more than a business—it was a cultural touchstone worth saving. Together with his wife Theresa and brother Alvin, he decided to take the reins and breathe new life into the space.

Renamed 606 after its address, the restaurant underwent a transformation. The familiar yellow awning under the iconic Jazz Mural remains, but the interior now blends modern updates with nostalgic nods to its history, honoring its deep roots in the community.

The Laus are part of a new generation reinvigorating Chinatown by preserving its culinary heritage. Their work symbolizes hope for the neighborhood’s post-pandemic recovery and ensures that its stories, flavors, and traditions endure for years to come.

Authentic Hong Kong-Style Milk Tea
Discover the Essence of Authentic Hong Kong-Style Milk Tea

Bold, smooth, aromatic, and irresistibly silky—authentic Hong Kong-style milk tea is a drink like no other. It’s more than just a beverage; it’s a cherished tradition that represents the evolution of British afternoon tea into a uniquely Hong Kong experience.

For generations, this iconic drink has been a beloved staple in Hong Kong cafés, offering a distinguished taste that blends robust black tea with the creamy richness of evaporated milk. Each sip is a harmonious balance of flavor and texture, delivering a delightful and unforgettable experience.

I grew up visiting Hong Kong frequently and fell in love with its café culture—especially the milk tea. Even as a young, caffeinated kid, I was captivated by its unparalleled flavor and silky texture. But in the Bay Area, or even across the USA, I could never find a cup that matched the authentic taste of Hong Kong’s next-level milk tea.

Driven by my passion for this iconic drink, I developed my own recipe, staying true to its origins and traditions. Today, I’m proud to share this authentic experience with the world. Whether you’re discovering it for the first time or seeking a nostalgic taste of home, I invite you to savor the bold, smooth, and aromatic delight of real Hong Kong-style milk tea.
