The food
Hong Kong café classics, on Gorgie Road.
The kind of food you'd find in a Hong Kong café, from char siu rice to curry fish balls. Here are four dishes customers have photographed.

Thick slices fried until they turn golden, filled, cut into squares and glossed with syrup. Reviewers keep naming it.

A soft omelette over rice, topped with diced roast pork, spring onion and a dark, savoury sauce. Char siu rice with eggs is the one reviewers bring up.
The café
Small, bright and homely.
White walls, terracotta chairs and a ceiling fan turning over a handful of tables. The front has patterned tiles under the window, "hello" on the door, and the name in soft pink letters.
Seasoned fries, two waysFrom No Boundary's own photos: one dusted in spice, one flecked with green.
