HK$78 steamed live tiger garoupa promotion..a large fish 800-900g

after our late afternoon dimsum sojourn at tim ho wan shamshuipo at 4.3pm, we rested & chatted at the hotel & then went for dinner at tao heung pier 88 mongkok 稻香超级鱼港旺角, making sure we were there before 9pm to enjoy the promotion.

it was planned in a way, that our excursions to lamma island today (& for that matter to dragon’s back, peak circle walk & cheung chau island on previous days) need not be rushed & we could have a leisurely breakfast, do the walks/hikes over the lunch period (the cool weather so accommodating) & then dimsum at timhowan at 5pm at a time when there was zero queue….

everything turned out quite as planned, and leisurely, also as planned…haha!

actually we went to hoe kee dessert 浩记甜品馆 for our dessert fix just before dinner on 13.1.2016! ^^

(we liked the desert so much we went back on 11.1.2016 & 12.1.2016 after we had it on 10.1.2016. both days they were closed. so first opportunity on 13.1.2016 we went again).

i guess dessert was a good start for dinner!

tao heung pier 88 mongkok稻香超级鱼港旺角

the large restaurant was pretty full. we managed to be seated w/o queueing before 9pm.

that was NOT sufficient to qualify for the time promotion, so i lodged our promotion orders first la…

HK$78 steamed live tiger garoupa promotion..a large fish 800-900g

that’s the HK$78 steamed live garoupa. it was a large fish i estimate 800g to 900g.

HK$34 1/2 chicken another promo not so great

managed to get the other promotion 1/2chicken at HK$34.

HK$34 1/2 chicken another promo not so great

it was passable but not great…not like the ginger sauce chicken at yue bo 鱼宝食馆!

just as well we did not order the HK$68 for a full chicken!

the HK$38 buddha-jum-over-the-wall, another promotion, sold out liao!

lobsters, live seafood

the proactive quite nice not pushy server got us interested in the seafood.

praying mantis prawn was very good! HK$198 came with a veg soup

we ordered the praying mantis prawn (2 large ones for HK$198). it was very good, very tasty.

veg tanhoon soup

and also came with a separate complimentary vegetable soup.

lobster (looks like 1kg) superior sauce with cheese

another dish we ordered was the australian lobster. it was a large one, i estimated 1kg. 🙂

lobster (looks like 1kg) superior sauce with cheese

we wanted it baked in superior sauce (上汤焗)。 the server recommended to add cheese. i guessed it was not the cheese gratin preparation.

anyhow we gave it a try. lobster was excellent, the cheese noodles made it feel like western pasta. it was done well & nice dish but not my preferred preparation.  baked in superior sauce (上汤焗) would be better.

clam la la soup

the lobster also came with a free clams lala dish. this was pretty good though not special.

again the guys ordered 2 bottles of blue girl (lam mui) pilsener beer..popular in hong kong.

dinner all in was HK$915 for 5pax = S$34pax…pretty decent la…

one dimsum not open till 11am

we were doing good by our standard la… ^^

yesterday we went 2hr hike (slow walk?) at dragon’s back…after that lunch at 鱼宝, then late afternoon dinner at timhowan shamshuipo, then late dinner at fu kee…

day before we went peak circle walk then yat lok roast goose, then go cheung chau island, then dinner at tao heung tsimshatsui.

today we thought we merit a slower pace from our slow pace…

& one dimsum was nearby, & they got 1 michelin star like 2 years after timhowan….so? walk there & give it a try lor…

but one dimsum 一点心 only open at 11am!

fu seng 富城火鍋海鮮酒家

anyway we found a dimsum place along the street (playong field road) just 1 block from one dimsum 一点心.

fu seng 富城火鍋海鮮酒家

a regular dimsum crowd.

叉烧包char siew pao

叉烧包char siew pao  was good! just like tao heung mongkok’s.

叉烧包char siew pao

i hardly ever take 叉烧包char siew pao in singapore…i hardly go dimsum anyway.

teochew dumplings 潮州粉果

my friends in love with teochew dumplings 潮州粉果. we ordered another round. 🙂

steamed pork ribs

steamed pork ribs were good, but i think timhowan’s steamed pork rib the best.

steamed chicken feet

steamed chicken feet a bit less good.

siew mai

siew mai also. my siew mai king friend never forget to remind us tao heung mongkok’s siew mai won was the best!

har gao

har gao was good, good everywhere anyway.

fried carrot cake

fried carrot cake ok, not so flavourful.

fupeiquin 腐皮卷

fupeiquin 腐皮卷 was very good, very tasty.

扎四宝 4 treasures

the 4 treasures was good also, but this dish hard to share & cut for 6pax.

扎四宝 4 treasures

we got help…a pair of scissors.

century egg congee 皮蛋瘦肉粥

century egg congee 皮蛋瘦肉粥  was good, but not the ffu kee congee 富记粥品’s standard.

century egg congee 皮蛋瘦肉粥

fu kee congee 富记粥品’s was so smooth like xo!

beef congee

beef congee same, good not special.

prawns fun cheong

fun cheong ok not so smooth like timhowan.

lomeigai糯米鸡

lomeigai糯米鸡 was good!

咸水饺

friends all liked the hum sui kok too. we ordered another round. 🙂

radish crsip

the radish crsip also very good! friend liked it.

we ate a lot, like at tao heung mongkok, a lot more than at timhowan.

this time it was HK$461=S$14.50pax..ok la…

roast goose 烧鹅 again!

after a satisfying lunch at the accidental find yue bo 鱼宝食馆, we made our way to tsimshatsui to do some “shopping”.

first a friend was told on whatsapp about jenny’s cookies so we thought we would grapped some at the stall at tsimshatsui. how silly of us!

we found jenny bakery at shop 24, GF, mirador mansion 54-64B nathan road alright, but we were directed to the back street where we were told there was a queue & someone giving out numbers.

long queue for jenny’s cookies

we duly did that but the queue was ridiculous, mostly chinese tourists. i whatsapped the same friend with a photo of the queue & quipped that even for her i would not queue for the cookies la…haha! 🙂

+++++++++++++++++++++

anyway after that we went to look for 楼上, found it quite easily by memory at lippo sun plaza level 5. i bought some mushrooms & dried scallops that wife wanted, and a friend bought lots of liver & sausage 肝肠腊肠.

we returned to hotel to rest & chit-chat, & update facebook la.. haha! 🙂

+++++++++++++++++++++

about 9pm on 12.1.2016, we decided to go back to-

fu kee 富记粥品 where we had excellent roast goose & congee on the first night we arrived in hong kong.

also we had missed our attempts over the last 2 nights to have our dessert fix at which is just across the road from  fu kee 富记, so that was an added attraction. 🙂

fu kee 富记粥品

it was late but the stall was still crowded. they ran out of roast goose. the server took our order of 1/2 goose but came back to say they could only give us 1/4 goose.

roast goose 烧鹅

still it was a good portion, not enough of course for 6 hungry fellas. 🙂

mixed innards congee及第粥

we again had the mixed innards congee及第粥 .

beef + liver congee

& the beef + liver soup.

nice warm homely comfort food. i still think this was my best congee, but then in hong kong, good congee are everywhere.

3-eggs watercress

3-eggs watercress was good. but it’s nothing like the wonderful 3-egg spinach at uncle leong’s.

watercress not spinach…& overall no comparison la…

sliced pork soup

the mustrad leaves 芥菜 sliced pork soup was good. i think my friends were getting hooked on 芥菜. 🙂

waxed meat & sausage with kailan 腊味炒芥兰

they recommended a waxed meat & sausage with kailan 腊味炒芥兰. it was good very flavourful!

flavourful glutinous rice糯米饭

& they literally push the glutinous rice糯米饭 onto our table. it was good so no complaints & it was done good-naturedly. we were given a scoopful to try & before we said anything, a huge portion was piled on our table. haha! when you like it, it is ok! 🙂

we had very good experience at this restaurant. both times we enjoyed our food. this second time we chatted quite a bit with the server & gave her a good tip afterwards. very happy with the food, service & price plus the added convenience of good location & will come back again next visit to hong kong.

timhowan’s famous crispy char siew pao

we returned from lamma island & rather than went back to hotel we decided to go straight to tim ho wan at shamshuipo at 4.30pm on 13.1.2016. ^^

there was no queue, so everything was perfect.

i was here like 4 times already. a more recent one on 3.4.2015.

for my friends, it was their first. everyone liked the food, and ambience was good. the crowd here was younger & maybe more tourists.

crispy char siew pao here is good as always.

& liver fun cheong

liver fun cheong very smooth, though 1 friend said he did not taste liver (the rest must have gobbled it up!)

mala cake 马拉糕

mala cake 马拉糕  good too, not my favoruite. i wouldn’t order myself.

teochew dumplings潮州粉果

my friends liked the teochew dumplings潮州粉果.

siew mai

but the one who likes siew mai a lot felt that this one here no match for tao heung mongkok  稻香旺角’s siew mai won 烧卖皇. i have to agree! 🙂

steamed pork ribs

steamed pork ribs i think better than most places. the pork ribs at tao heung mongkok  稻香旺角 had too much fat & also yam.

steamed chicken feet

steamed chicken feet good like other places.

minced pork rice

& we had 2 rice. minced pork on rice &

steamed pork ribs chicken feet rice

steamed pork ribs chicken feet rice.

later we had another order of steamed chicken feet & pork ribs to add to the rice.

osmanthus jelly 桂花糕

& the usual osmanthus jelly桂花糕.

a jolly good late afternoon dimsum. we ate a bit less i guess, no less satisfaction, & bill was just HK$273=S$8.50pax.

the best ngau lam 牛腩

after a 2hr hike at the dragon’s back with magnificient views & fresh air, and a tour of the wet market at shau kei wan bus terminus, we renewed our search for new daipaidongs.

i read about 民声冰室 i thefoodcray & the photos looked great

the bad tai yun 泰源 experience still fresh in our minds but there was no chance we would repeat that,,,haha!

on the way to 民声冰室 from tin hau station

getting out of tin hau station 天后, we took the fire dragon path alongside causeway bay sports ground.

on the way to 民声冰室 from tin hau station

& proceeded to wun sha street 浣纱街.

民声冰室

found 民声冰室no problem..but then it was closed.

it was 3pm. lunch over liao & they open at 6pm.

鱼宝食馆

we were uncertain about the neighbour stall 鱼宝食馆 so we walked around the place but there was only a cha chan ten 茶餐厅 some fishball noodles shop 鱼蛋面, so no choice we ended up back to 鱼宝食馆.

we were seated 6 on a table on the walkway when a policeman appeared. proprietress was quick to get us to stand up. there was no food on the table yet. she said “keng kai” meaning “o..they were just chatting”.

it was illegal to seat on the side street/walkways/alfresco & the proprietress later “吐苦水” to us, that she paid a high rent expecting to do alfresco. the shop itself hardly have place for 1 table, so how to do business?

鱼宝食馆 menu

i was mostly attracted by the ngau lam 牛腩 (top photo) but they do have some items on their menu that we didn’t mind trying.

ginger sauce chicken 姜汁鸡 HK$208

proprietress recommended the ginger sauce chicken 姜汁鸡 HK$208. it was not bad, nothing special or outstanding but a nice tasty chicken (like our samsui chicken, think soup restaurant) for 6 hungry men (3pm!)

dessert shop used by 鱼宝

since there was no place to sit at all in the shop, the proprietress managed to get us seated at her neighbour dessert shop which was closing (unfortunately we couldn’t have dessert after lunch).

salted fish minced pork咸鱼饼

we had the salted fish minced pork咸鱼饼.

salted fish minced pork咸鱼饼

this was good. we will be having this on wednesday 20.1.2016, my version, 6 of us at my place. ^^

black beans bittergourd with kurobuta

we ordered also the black beans bittergourd with kurobuta 黑猪肉.

nice dish, and kurobuta was tender.

black beans bittergourd with kurobuta

black beans bittergourd a common zi char dish. my cantonese friend claimed it’s common cantonese dish & i claimed it’s teochew. haha! 🙂

i am also going to do this on 20.1.2016, but w/o the black beans & just using sweet beans to stir-fry with a sous vide pork collar, basically a double-cooked pork 回锅肉.

lettuce with fermented beancurd腐乳生菜

& we had a lettuce with fermented beancurd腐乳生菜 . it’s good. i am going to use romaine lettuce 油麦菜which is better. 🙂

lotus leaf steamed rice with garlic prawns 荷叶鲜虾蒸饭

& we had a lotus leaf steamed rice with garlic prawns 荷叶鲜虾蒸饭. i was thinking not much taste right?

but i was wrong. it was very tasty. i tried making this last night, passable not not tasty like theirs. i will adjust a bit. 🙂

the best ngau lam meen 牛腩面

the ngau lam meen 牛腩面 i think is the best i had in hong kong thus far. ^^

the best ngau lam meen 牛腩面

the meat was so very flavourful, and the soup very intense & tasty. we shared one at first just to try then we ordered 2 more bowls.

hong kong’s ngau lam 牛腩 is just so good that we all did not order the tendon & stomach, all 3 bowls were ngau lam meen 牛腩!

i am quite happy to find this place. like my friend said, they depended a lot on take-out 外卖as no seating for customers. and the prices were not expensive but also not cheap, but quality was good so customers would return.

i would not see this as a great find, other zi char dishes like steamed fish (they would not have live fish) & seafood were untested or unlikely to be better than bigger daipaidongs. still i would not mind to try 民声冰室 & also this stall again the next time round. 🙂

polo bun HK$10

after the initial hiccups & light showers on first evening & yesterday morning, the weather favoured us for the remaining time of the trip.

this morning we were going to hike at dragon’s back. decided to drop in at kam wah cafe 金华茶餐厅 on 12.1.2016. ^^

this was supposed to offer the best polo buns 菠萝包 in hong kong. well according to 1 reviewer. 🙂

kam wah cafe 金华茶餐厅

cafe was quite full at 915am but we did not have to wait as the server got the guy to move to another table. he just finished up & go, cheerful & very nice about it.

kam wah cafe 金华茶餐厅

this was a much better example of sensible customer management c/w yat lok which made us (6pax) wait 15mins while seating the rest (2s & 3s) queued behind us…didn’t make sense.

polo bun with char siew HK$21

don’t know what the fuss about polo bun?

a buttered slightly sweetened bun with an added slice of butter?

polo bun with char siew HK$21

none too expensive at HK$10. and for the char siew version (to me a waste of time…especially when hong kong makes such poor char siew!) it;s HK$21.

i ok with it meaning can eat it, but it’s not my kind of food la..i think macdonald better & i don’t eat mac also, usually…

so i am a poor contributor to this kind of food reviews…

coffee tea 鸳鸯

鸳鸯 ? could taste both coffee & tea yes! why is that special? i rather have coffee or tea (mostly coffee).

cheese toast

cheese toast…ok also la…

instant noodles

instant noodles with cheap ham & sausage…this one for sure i made lots better at home.

it was good though we had something to eat before some exercise climbing the 282m (only!) dragon’s back.

Kam Wah Cafe 金华冰厅

1/2 roast BB suckling pig HK$148

after a good day’s walk at cheung chau island + free star ferry ride, and (before that) a very nice stroll at the peak circle walk, we were ready to settle down to a sumptuous dinner on 11.1.2016. ^^

it was not to be such a simple task though.

since we were already at tsimshatsui, we decided to go to tao heung at tsimshatsui rather than take mtr to mongkok.

all our i-sim free 160Mb data were used up & not topped up yet so. we got tao heung google-mapped when i got into isquare wifi network & was happily reaching the carnavon plaza in good time to enjoy the before 9pm promotion. 🙂

but we did not expect that tao heung had moved to 3 minden row. & w/o 3G it was quite difficult to locate just by verbal directions. after quite a long search & about to throw up our hands & go back to mongkok, we found tao heung at 3 minden row & sat down to find that our order had passed the 9pm timesheet log-in. 😦

anyhow, the 1/2 roast goose & 1/2 roast BB suckling pig were priced very reasonably here so i ordered both.

pig head-1/2 roast BB suckling pig HK$148

BB suckling was small & it was very good. at HK$148, it was even cheaper than the already cheap roast goose.

& really nice too. i loved it, as good as ah yat grandstand & hung kang restaurants in singapore.

glutinous rice stuffed chicken soup HK$188 2-in-1 special

there were like 6 different 2-in-1 combo special. one was a dungenese crab combo.

i decided to take the glutinous rice stuffed chicken soup. 🙂

glutinous rice stuffed chicken soup HK$188 2-in-1 special

& the soup was wonderful! ^^

glutinous rice stuffed chicken soup HK$188 2-in-1 special

very intense & tasty, & the chicken & glutinous rice were very good too & i the soup was so intense & flavourful. fantastic!

it’s a bit like the korean samgyaetang 参鸡汤 but no ginseng i think. tasted a whole lot better also.

sliced abalone with sweet beans-part of 2-in-1 special

the HK$188 2-in-1 combo included a sliced abalone with sweet beans which was good too. a pretty good deal!

1/2 roast goose 烧鹅 HK$180

the 1/2 roast goose 烧鹅 HK$180 in this restaurant was just HK$180, cheaper than yat lok (HK$250) & cheaper than fu kee (HK$220)!

1/2 roast goose 烧鹅 HK$180

the roast goose looked great & tasted pretty good too! but it was really NOT as good as flavourful than both yat lok & fu kee. it was pretty good, a dish i would take in this restuarant.

pork ribs mustard leaves soup HK$78

my friends loved the pork ribs mustard leaves soup 芥菜锅. very tasty clear 清 soup.

this a dish i intend to make, together with the samgyaetang 参鸡汤!

stirfried spinach HK$58

the greens was done well here, very nicely garlic fried with wok hae, unlike the “damp squid” tasteless vegetable at tai yun 泰源 last evening!

fried rice

they placed the wrong dish on our table, a fried rice, maybe yangzhou fried rice. it looked good & we decided to order it as well. nice!

blue girl “lam mui”

& the lads decided we should round off dinner with 2bottles of blue girl “lam mui” beer.

i took a small sip. it was pretty flavourful, not bad la..

dinner was HK$931 all in for 6pax = S$29pax, not toforget we had roast goose & roast suckling pig, a very good dinner at a super good price!

& the service in this new restaurant with great ambience was good too!

Tao Heung 稻香 (Tsimshatsui)

peak tower

after a most satisfying breakfast at tao heung mongkok  稻香旺角, fair weather returned so we made our way to central station & took 2 taxis (we had 6pax) to the peak 山顶.

taxi fare was about HK$60 to HK$62. this c/w HK$28 one way/HK$40 return by tram. more importantly, there’s usually a long queue at the peak tram going up & some distance to walk from central mtr exit. 🙂

of course it’s cheaper by bus, but taxi up is still the most convenient, & we had the option of tram down which we did.

view from peak galleria rooftop

taxi took us to peak galleria 山顶广场.

we got to the rooftop. sky little overcast. weather was perfect like 17degC.  this direction seems to be looking out to aberdeen & deep water bay.

view from peak galleria rooftop

& stanley?

edvard munch the scream =trickeye museum peak galleria

there was a trickeye museum for optical illusions. 🙂

& a replica of edvard munch the scream at the entrance to the museum.

1 level down there was tai cheong 泰昌饼家, a brand of tao heung group. this the one where the stall at lyndhurst terrace the last british governor chris patten claimed had the best egg tarts in hong kong. trust the guy to know what is a good egg tart? we tried the egg tart. i have done this more than once at tai cheong 泰昌饼家 including the one at lyndhurst terrace but it was still so-so for me, a little too sweet & nothing c/w the burnt portugese egg tart.

victoria harbour & kowloon bay, IFC & ICC

we took the lesiurely 1 hr peak circle walk. 🙂

nice view of victoria harbour & kowloon bay, & the 2 tallest buildings, ICC on kowloon side & IFC on HK island side. 🙂

victoria harbour & kowloon bay, IFC & ICC

i did not take so many scenery shots like my last walk here on 4.4.2015.

& though we had quite many people shots, i do not post these on my public post.

victoria harbour & ICC

great view of victoria harbour,

anchorage, tsing yi bridge

the anchorage & the bridge linking to tsing yi island.

tsing ma & lantau bridges

& further the bridges from tsing yi to mawan island & from mawan island to lantau island.

a very relaxing & refreshing walk. nice air…good cheer…

we finished 2-ish. there was no queue for the tram down. so we took the tram & walked to yat lok 一乐stanley street to have our roast goose 烧鹅 fix!

c.h.e.f andy

HK$250 for 1/2 roast goose 烧鹅

after peak circle walk, we took the peak tram funicular to gardens road & walk to yat lok 一乐stanley street on 11.1.2016.

3pm at yat lok stanley street central

the place was crowded, packed at 3pm. we had to wait like 15mins.

partly because of the very bad queueing system.

we were a party of 6. the servers kept giving tables to parties of 2 & 3 behind us, and we had to wait till a table with 6 vacated. this was unlike at kam wah cafe the next morning where the server ushered us in & got others on a table that could seat 6 to move to other tables to free up 6 seats for us!

3pm at yat lok stanley street central

we were seated at a tiny table very crammed for 6, and the floor was wet at the ends so a few of us myself included had to seat with my feet tiptoed, extremely uncomfortable.

HK$250 for 1/2 roast goose 烧鹅

yat lok 一乐 has been my favourite roast goose 烧鹅 the last few times i was here.

the roast goose is consistently crispy skin & flavourful.

HK$250 for 1/2 roast goose 烧鹅

the waiting, crammed table, wet floor & the overall poor experience aside, the roast goose was still very good.

in fact most of my friends still voted  yat lok 一乐 the best roast goose (we had roast goose twice at fu kee congee 富记粥品, once at tao heung tsimshatsui, and once at yat lok).

for me, my first try at i felt it was as good as yat lok, after the second try, i decided for myself that i now prefer the more flavourful roast goose at fu kee congee 富记粥品 to yat lok.

HK$ 145 char siew + siew yoke

the HK$145 char siew + siew yoke was a complete waste of time.

char siew was more moist than the even worse one at fu kee congee 富记粥品, but equally tasteless. & the roast meat had rubbery skin.

any, i meant any, coffeeshop, hawkerstall char siew & siew yoke in Singapore are better than these.

HK$ char siew + siew yoke

totally convinced me never to order char siew in hong kong.

dry egg noodles

dry egg noodles was HK$25 – steep!

we ordered 2 soup flat noodles also.

lettuce

lettuce was such a tiny portion enough for 1pax.

the whole lunch came to about HK$650, expensive for the food we had & also a very poor overall dining experience.

i think yat lok 一乐 roast goose is still one to try if you are 2-3pax party & order only roast goose & some dumplings like we did last time.

stanley street pottinger street junction

after lunch, we walked to the mid-level escalators to go to central ferry to go cheung chau for a very next late afternoon island hike.

siew mai won 烧卖皇

on 10.1.2016 the day we arrived, it started to rain in the late evening just when we kena abducted & fed a forgettable dinner at tai yun 泰源.

how can we be so unlucky? the lowest rainfall in the whole year in january & we ran smacked with a north east monsoon blowing over.

the next day we had planned to meet 830am at central to go up to victoria peak太平山, but it was again raining so we had to switch to wet weather program & met at our hotel royal plaza instead.

fortunately for the remaining time, it was fine weather all the way, & we managed our hike at peak circle walk, cheung chau island, dragonback & then a short stroll at lamma island. ^^

tao heung mongkok 稻香旺角

best wet weather program = breakfast dimsum at tao heung mongkok  稻香旺角 on 11.1.2016. ^^

tao heung mongkok 稻香旺角

hong kong is well connected with covered walkways, so we walked from royal plaza hotel to nathan road mongkok mtr under cover then walked along nathan road to hollywood plaza & to tao heung on level 3. 🙂

tao heung mongkok 稻香旺角

there was no queue but still a good crowd at 9.30am.

dimsum galore

we liked have a dimsum feast! maybe 25 items or more? forgot count but many items we ordered double.

anyway we ordered mostly from the before 11am specials priced at HK$8 & HK$9.

dimsum was very good standard. 🙂

spicy chives dumpling

spicy chives dumplings were good.

some rolls

not were name of the rolls..not my favourite.

潮州粉果 teochew dumplings

the combination 潮州粉果 teochew dumplings was good, great skin, great tasty ingredients! 🙂

炸两

炸两 was perfect. not my favourite fun cheung 粉肠but the 油条were great not like the hard like stone ones in singapore for this dish.

steamed pork ribs

steamed pork ribs were good. lots of yam, less pork.. tim ho wan’s much better!

steamed chicken feet

steamed chicken feet also competent.

fried eggplant with minced meat

fried eggplant was tasty.

fried eggplant with minced meat

not particularly my dish.

fried fupeikuin腐皮卷

i don’t fancy fried fupeikuin腐皮卷, prefer the steamed version. this was good though.

fried carrot cake

fried crrot cake was good, & came with 2 guotie 锅贴very good too… 🙂

char siew fun cheung叉烧粉肠

char siew fun cheung叉烧粉肠 was good, very smooth, but maybe not standout. got good ones in singapore these days.

char siew pao

char siew pao was very good.

char siew pao

so nice! so tasty! meat not too sweet, overal excellent. i hardly ever take char siew pao in singapore..lol..this one i took!

century egg congee皮蛋瘦肉粥

congee was just passable.

after the truly superb congee at fu kee congee 富记粥品 at fa yun street 花园街, nothing ever comes close la…

egg with pork & rice

the pork over rice with braised egg, again one of the HK$9 items…抵食到极 tie sek dor kek….

糯米鸡 lomeigai

糯米鸡 lomeigai i think normal pricing so should be like HKS24 or more….it’s good! so hoot ah!

mala cake马拉糕

& we had mala cake马拉糕 . this like lots of hong kong people like.

i guess it’s quite tasty ka..but not a “dessert” i need.

ginger cake

ginger cake was good too. seldom see this so had some uniqueness value.

overall the humongous breakfast cost us HK$380 for 6pax=S$12 each.

in hong kong they say “先要好食，然后抵食“ ie cheap is one thing, but must be good first la…same same my idea.^^

great thing was as we left the restaurant, rain had stopped & weather was fine throughout the days.
