Ho Ho is a pretty good option for dinner in HUB. The lunch box (ready made food) is not as good as the freshly made dishes that you can order from the menu; e.g. Chow Mein.
By the way, "Ho" means good in Cantonese- mystery solved! -

I refuse to order from the ready-made food at Ho Ho's - much better to order off the real menu! Even though I can only pick out a few Chinese words, the English translation is pretty reasonable, and I can pick out some of my favourites such as Black Bean Spareribs on rice (which as it turned out, is the same cut of sparerib but not the same flavour as the garlicky dim sum spareribs - still totally yummy), and Duck Noodle Soup with Pickled Cabbage, which is shredded Chinese barbequed duck, tender slivers of shiitake mushrooms, yummy salty pickled cabbage, and loads of crispy bean sprouts in a delicious broth. Wasn't too fond of the plain noodles (I'm used to getting this dish with laifun/rice noodles) but overall pretty good. It's about $9 for one of these dishes, which is expensive for a student's budget, but they are pretty big portions (some people would have leftovers, but not me), and I only eat out every once in a while so I can justify it.
Cash only, as most Asian food joints are. All in all, Ho Ho's is a totally reasonable place to get Chinese food in HUB mall. -

I wonder why this place is called "Ho Ho" anyways? It could either imply that someone called Ho Ho owns the joint, or two prostitutes run the place. Zing!
This place isn't anything great to be honest. I ordered some pork from here with some fried rice and it didn't blow me away or anything. I think the meals ($7-$8+) are a tad expensive for what you're getting. The staff got a bit lazy on me when closing hours were approaching.
