Hmm it's a tough one cause it depends on your taste.
A bit pricy but with friends I recommend 'the American restaurant' in between wan chai and admiralty - Peking duck is awesome, and it's catered to tourists. Good place tostart.
Dim sum - lee gardens or graces garden, both have and English/ Chinese menu you can tick off dishes you like some favorites with friends that come to visit are, please excuse my spelling as I don't speak Chinese:
Siu Mai - shrimp
Hakaw - beef ball
Char siu bao - BBQ pork in a white bun
Chow fan - fried rice
Most noodles you can't go wrong with, but they are different types
Ho fan - flat thick noodles
Min ( sounds like mean) thin egg noodles - wan ton min is a usual dish, wonton is boiled shrimp dumplings. This is also made as a fried dish, fried wonton for dim sum served with sweet sour sauce
You can get sweet and sour pork I cant remember the chinese
I also recommend shanghainese food
They have spicy dumplings
Dumplings with soup in them
Drunken chicken
And so much more
In cha cha tents you can get the BBQ pork with rice - char siu fan
Go a little nuts with it, have them put fried egg on it
Char siu Dan fan, and char siu siu Dan fan, one is an egg sunny side up and the other is scrambled
Curry pork with rice - sounds like cah lay chu pow fan
Have any local Chinese friends you can go with?
