Lemon King was established by a former hawker Tong Kan-pui, who first started selling preserved lemon snacks from a wooden trolley in Wing Kut Street, Sheung Wan since the 1970s.
After years of operations, Lemon King has gained its popularity among Hong Kong customers and tourists. There were also times that the wooden trolley was confiscated and the business had to be halted. Thankfully, with the help of Hong Kong food critic Chua Lam and relevant government departments, we were awarded a fixed-pitch hawker's licence in 2008, allowing Lemon King to stay in Wing Kut Street.
Lemon King has a good understanding of what makes a good traditional food great, and we are committed to offering the best products to our customers. In addition to liquorice lemon, we also offer ginger, olives, mushroom chips, okra chips etc. to snack lovers. We will continue to uphold Lemon King's vision in offering the best products to customers.
Before Mr Tong established Lemon King, he once worked at a Chinese medicine shop, where he got to know how to differentiate good liquorice roots from the bad ones. Mr Tong later mixed the dried lemon with liquorice powder, making liquorice lemon one of the most popular products nowadays. Liquorice lemon has become a signature product among tourists in Hong Kong. Lemon King has also become a popular brand that grows with Hong Kong.
