You’ve chosen your junk boat company, got all your buddies on board (pun intended), and now there’s the small task of stocking up your boat with enough food and beverages to feed a small army. While there’s no denying that all-inclusive junks have their appeal—especially if organisation and coordination are not your strong points—these often come with a hefty price tag. But that should not stop you from having an epic party at sea, so we’ve sussed out the best junk boat catering companies in Hong Kong to satisfy all appetites and budgets. Take your pick!
