The Cut Bar & Grill, The Rocks

After the hectic week, finally I can sit down to have a proper meal. I have chosen my favourite 4-hour slow roast sher F1 wagyu standing rib to start! I just love this perfect cooked pink colour and it is very juicy too.

After trying out their sticky date pudding, I cannot go without dessert. This time I chose something different, the lemon custard. It is a good way to finish off the night!

Miss Chu Sydney CBD Tuckshop, Sydney

After a long day at work, I will need to treat myself for some decent fast food. Miss Chu Sydney CBD Tuckshop is handy for me to get some takeaway before heading home. I have got myself Roast Duck & Banana Flower Rice Paper Rolls and Prawn & Crab Net Spring Rolls to finish off my night!

Hung's Delicacies (阿鴻小吃), North Point, Hong Kong

This restaurant is situated in a residential area where you will never thought of you will find a gem here! We are glad to arrive here for the first round of the dinner session and we don't have to queue up long for our table.

Queue After We Finished :D

When you look at the menu, there is basically anything you can think of from a duck or goose are on it. There is no wastage! Why is this restaurant so popular? It has to do with the sauce (滷水) they used.

First of all we have to order the favourite, marinated goose slices. It is so fatty and tasty!

Lin Heung Tea House (蓮香樓)

Continuing with my journey to try out long established restaurant, Lin Heung Tea House is another choice. As my aunt knew that they are always packed, we reserved a table for the early dinner. When we are there, most tables have already scattered with people. I am looking forward to their food!

Tea House (Old Style)

Eight Treasure Duck (八寶鴨)

We have pre-ordered the Eight Treasure Duck. This is basically stuffed eight different ingredients into a boneless duck. The eight ingredients are lotus seeds, glutinous rice, mushroom, salty egg york... and I have lost count. The duck meat is so tender and just melt in your mouth. The glutinous rice is the best part of the dish. It absorbed all the taste from the duck.

Lotus Root Cake

I really like lotus root cake and I have made a special request for this dish. :)

This is Also a Unique Dish which I Found It In Hong Kong

Finished off with Mung Bean Dessert

Went to this restaurant is like travel back in time!

Anthony Kitchen, Sai Kung, Hong Kong

Where to go for seafood when you are in Hong Kong? Sai Kung is the place! It is quite an interesting experience for me. You can either buy your seafood directly from the fishermen or from the shop itself. What I mean to buy direct from the fishermen?

Combat with Mud Crab

If I didn't go to the Sydney Fish Market, I wont see the sign saying "$21.99/kg for Live Mud Crab". I walked into at least two shops which said the same and I have to give in. I bought a live mud crab home. Now the issue is how to kill this thing??? 

Thanks to Facebook. I dropped this question to my Facebook status and my friends have answered. Collating all the ideas and trying to put them in practice. I first tried to poke into the head as suggested. May be my chopstick isn't long enough, the crab was still very active and trying to escape!

Dead...

Without too much of the gruesome details, I have killed it with the good old method. However, I still have been bitten by its reflex. Next time I know even if its claw detached from its body, it still can bite and it's painful... ouch!!!

Steamed Mud Crab... Ready to Serve!

Steamed for around 15 minutes, fresh and very sweet mud crab is ready to eat. I am now off to eat... chat later... nom nom nom.

Chan's at Lindfield, Lindfield

The weather is getting colder and what's best is to have a congee to warm yourself up? :) We went to Chan's at Lindfield for their crab congee.

Crab Congee

The congee is full of the crab favour. You can the sweetness from the crab.

Crab with the greens

The second part of it is to get our hands dirty and getting the meat out of the shell. :)

Salt and Pepper Flounder

We also ordered salt and pepper flounder to go with our congee. The flounder is so fresh and we even ate all the fin and bones! :D
