Ji Long Tea Restaurant

Similar to both the North River Roast Meat Restaurant and the New Jinshan Roast Meat Restaurant, the Ji Long Tea Restaurant, located in the rustic Mong Kong,  has a vision of giving back to the community.

The restaurant originally began as a proud supporter of the Street Sleepers Action Committee, in which it provided free meals to the homeless people referred to her by the non-profit organisation. However, the more lunchboxes she gave out, the more Ms. Cao, the owner, became aware of the alarming situations of children in Hong Kong. Many were unable to meet the nutritional dietary needs, due to the impoverished conditions they were living in. So instead of just providing help to the homeless, she decided to open up her aid to children and families with low income. 
To date, she provides around 30 free lunchboxes to under malnourished children a day and prices her meals at a low $12, so that anyone can afford it. She has even set the restaurant up as a volunteer base, where students and other members of the society keen to help prepare the lunchboxes and provide them to the families and children. ​​
