Hong Kong - Food Oh Food (1/8/07)

Finally, I've reached Hong Kong!! Oh mi goat ... there are so much to share here. -.- And I've not even dipped my foot into it yet. Haiya ... Anyway, let's start, shall we?

So, our beloved HK friend, Maria was introducing this wonderful Dim Sum place at Tsim Sha Tsui. I even have the name card for you :p. What's this place called?

Lung Chinese Fusion
Address:
Shop C 3/F Silvercord
30 Canton Road
Tsim Sha Tsui
Kowloon



You must come on weekday morning as they have very special price for their Dim Sum. Don't believe me? Let me recall what I ordered.
  • Char Siew Bao
  • Siew Mai
  • Prawn dunno wat x 2 (it's very nice but too bad I can't remember what's its called!)
  • Chee Cheong Fun
  • Green bean dessert
  • And 1 or 2 more side dish
  • Free refill of tea
No service charge and with 3 of us eating till our jaw dropped, the price was around SGD 15!!!! And the place was really posh! It's great to bring guests and any big eaters there. The view was superb as it's facing the sea. Seriously, why is it so cheap? :o No service charge some more!!! Win lor! No wonder I smile while eating my Char Siew Bao. :p


After Dim Sum, I was left alone as two of my friends wanna catch up after few years haven't met each other. So, I went to Pacific Coffee, had my green drink and surf the net. Pacific Coffee is a must visit place if you'd like to have a quick check on your email.
Actually one of the MTR Station in Hong Kong, if I'm not wrong it's "Central", there are a few terminals for you to access internet for FREE!! Can you believe it? Hong Kong is cool! So, you don't need to worry about checking your emails. When people who go to Hong Kong and said they are uncontactable by email hmm .... either they lie or they lie! Haha ... opps ... just kidding. How would I know what they'll be doing?

Anyway, where was I? Oh ya, I was left alone. So I watched Casino Royale, alone. There were only 3 people in the cinema enjoying the hunky Daniel Craig. Oohh ... La ... La ... Those abs. Those chest. Those biceps. Those triceps. Those legs!!!! Arghh ... Alright I'd better stop. -.- It's supposed to be a food entry!!!

After we were rekindled at Pacific Coffee :p ... we went to the next food stop:

Chao Inn
10/F No 1 Peking Road
Tsim Sha Tsui



What are we having there? My friend was craving for 2 things:
- Xiao Long Bao -> superb! must try
- Drunken Chicken -> I'm not a fan bu my friend finished the wine



(Sorry, no pics of the Xiao Long Bao ... as usual, I only remembered to take pic after the food was awfully molested ... argh)

Do you think my quest finished here? Noooooooooooo ..... Next and most important stop!

The Sweet Dynasty
(Yep ... they have website. Menu is there ... you can start planning what to eat now)


If you are not as sweet tooth as me ... then you can skip this but ... I can't!!! I have to have one dessert a day! :p ... I already had 2 on that day .... :p ....

Though my tummy was protesting like mad. So full lar ... but heyyyy ... I've shifted my butt here and I am not going to not eat! So, we only ordered the traditional bean curd.



Super big siahhhhhhhh. Lucky can takeaway, my friend brought some back for her mom. So sweet of her. :) Though the bean curd was nothing special (their specialty was one of the mango based dessert, which I didn't try) but I swear if I ever step to Hong Kong again, I'll try alllllllll in the menu!! -.- Next thing I know I'll be crowded by ants. ARGH!

Alright ... enough of food! I ended my day by walking almost 1 MTR (while we call it MRT in Singapore, they call it MTR in Hong Kong) station away. From Tsim Sha Tsui to Jordan. So, my itchy hands just snapped a few images along the way. :) The end of the 8th of January 2007. La la la la la .....



Actually ler ... at night I was still eating the street food. Just no photos to share though ... I finally ate the Smelly Tofu (err ... it's smelly ... but I didn't really enjoy it, so I let my Food Finisher, helped me with the rest of it), then I had some egg fish ball??? It's called "Yu Dan" in cantonese and also couldn't finish it. Haha ...

Let me end my food journey here. :p ... Tomorrow will be another short day. But the day after ... long long long long long ....

See ya again.
