The open-air, waterfront location of Momentai (a play of the word ‘no problem’ in Cantonese) brings in Sai Kung regulars every day of the week. It’s blessed with a panoramic backdrop of the waterfront where sampans, ferries, and fishermen flock. City-goers tend to swing by on weekends for a drink or two, and its expansive list of Hong Kong craft beers is especially worth checking out. Head here during happy hours for a chilled afternoon on the comfy couches after a day at the beach or post-hike, perhaps followed by a game of pool at the bar.
