食口福於1979年開業，位於葵涌石籬和宜合道，亦曾在深水埗開設分店。食口福的招牌菜式有港式漢堡包、即叫即炸大雞脾、粗薯條和多款紅豆冰，目標客戶主要為附近上學上班的學生和工友。食口福的店面裝潢特別，除了參考西式快餐店的設計元素外，亦加入不少搞怪、色彩鮮艷的元素吸引小童目光，在1980年代顯得前衛。
多年來，食口福仍然保留着1980年代的菜單和店面裝潢，頗有復古未來主義風格，至今已成為碩果僅存的港式快餐店之一。2022年末，店東卓氏夫婦因年事已高宣佈退休，餐廳將於2023年1月18日結業。

Food Paradise, located at Shek Lei and Yee Wo Street in Kwai Chung, opened in 1979 and also had a branch in Sham Shui Po. Its signature dishes include Hong Kong-style hamburgers, deep-fried chicken wings, thick cut fries, and various red bean desserts. The restaurant primarily targets students and workers in the nearby area. The interior decoration of Food Paradise is unique, incorporating elements of Western fast food restaurants as well as colorful and whimsical designs to attract children's attention, which was considered avant-garde in the 1980s.
Over the years, Food Paradise has retained its 1980s menu and interior decorations, showcasing a retro-futuristic style. It has become one of the few remaining Hong Kong-style fast food restaurants. At the end of 2022, the couple who owns the restaurant, Mr. and Mrs. Cheuk, announced their retirement due to their advanced age. The restaurant is set to close on January 18, 2023.
