HONG KONG — The tempting aroma of warm pineapple buns wafts through the air as attentive waiters in crisp white uniforms serve Hong Kong-style milk tea ordered from vintage menus — welcome to Shing Kee Cafe, a food spot with a difference.
Ms Mandy Lau watches over 93-year-old Wong Shui-ying at Shing Kee Cafe, which has pineapple buns among items on the menu.
Two residents played the role of waiters to take orders, while the rest were busy making toast and sandwiches, reheating pineapple buns and curry fishballs and brewing drinks from two kiosks with the help of student volunteers or care home staff. “Cha chaan teng can easily strike a chord in their hearts and evoke memories because they used to visit these restaurants a lot.”
“Many elderly residents showed signs of social withdrawal after the pandemic because they were too scared of getting infected, so it took some time for us to encourage them to join this activity,” Ms Chu said. The care home will hold the activity once or twice a month with a different menu every time. Each session lasts about two hours.
