順興餐廳
藝術家：黃鼎豐
菠蘿油、蛋撻、奶茶和咖啡是不少香港人下午茶的至愛。位於九龍城的順興餐廳在1984年由店主的父親開設，至2000年交給兒子馬先生接手，並進行大裝修，重塑開業時八十年代懷舊冰室的格局，同時保留餅房，堅持每天新鮮出爐麵包糕餅，吸引不少一日三餐光顧的熟客。
鐵閘上描繪了父與子以及九龍城變遷的故事，藝術家黃鼎豐以鳥瞰角度畫出正在餐廳享用下午茶的二人，右方是父親和啟德機場的舊九龍城，左方則是兒子和高樓大廈林立的新九龍城。三十多年的歲月洪流，為九龍城沖洗出翻天覆地改變，不變的是父子情懷。
Shun Hing Restaurant
Artist: Wong Ting Fung
Shun Hing Restaurant is a “cha chaan teng” (Hong Kong-style cafe) serving the city’s favourite comfort food, like pineapple buns, egg tarts, Hong Kong-style milk tea and coffee. The restaurant was established in 1984, by the father of Mr Ma, the current owner. Since taking over in 2000, Mr Ma has done major renovations to rejuvenate the 1980s retro-style interior. He has also preserved the restaurant’s original bakery, where fresh bread is still baked every day. Shung Hing Restaurant remains a local favourite, with regular customers dropping in for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Artist Wong Ting Fung’s shutter artwork shows a bird’s eye perspective image of Mr Ma and his father enjoying afternoon tea at the restaurant. The image captures an intimate father-son portrait and reflects Shun Hing Restaurant’s thirty-year legacy. The right side of the image represents the past – with Mr Ma’s father and the shadow of the plane over old Kowloon City. The left side represents the present – with Mr Ma and the skyscrapers of Kowloon City today.
