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!

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

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?

Some of these seafood which I hardly eat in Sydney.

No Signboard Seafood, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

I have some Singaporean food crave and went to try out this newly open No Signboard Seafood at Causeway Bay. Their menu is not extensive comparing to their Singaporean one. Here are a few dishes we tried. 

White Pepper Crab

Their famous white pepper crab is not as peppery as I thought it would be which is to my liking. There is a lot of sauce which I can dip with the mantau and clean the plate.

 Coffee-Cooked Pork Ribs 

The coffee-cooked pork ribs has rich coffee favour. It is a very tasty and unique dish. 

 Sambal Kang Kong

Without sambal doesn't feel like I had Singaporean food. Sambal Kang Kong is always the one to order. This dish is not as spicy as it would be. May be to suit Hong Kong preference?

Mee Goreng

Finished off with mee goreng to stuff with more starch!! :P

Although it is not the same as the one I had in Singapore, but it is good enough for me to satisfy my crave.

Chez Shibata, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong

I saw all these lovely cake photos from Ms Miffy's album and has been asking her to bring me to these cake shop when I am in Hong Kong. She brought me to Chez Shibata. This is a Japanese patisserie and chocolatier.

Coeur des Bois

We have ordered their signature dish Coeur des Bois. It is a heart shaped raspberry mousse cake and inside there is a surprise filling of raspberry.

Mont Blanc

We have also tried Mont Blanc. This is a chestnut cake with layers of chocolate in a cup. It is hard to find chestnut cake in Sydney. 

La Venus

The last one we have tried for the day is La Venus. This is a rich dark chocolate cake. I cant miss out to try their chocolate. :)

Tai Ping Koon Restaurant (太平館餐廳), Central, Hong Kong

While I am in Hong Kong, my family organised a reunion dinner. Since it is around Christmas, we would like to have Western food over Chinese food but with a bit of Chinese influence. Here we are at Tai Ping Koon Restaurant (太平館餐廳), which was found in 1860.

Menu with Background

Tai Ping Koon Restaurant is famous for its Swiss sauce chicken wings, baked Portuguese style chicken and roasted pigeon. I have been curious why does the sauce is called Swiss sauce. The menu has a bit of the explanation. Back in the early time, the waiters can speak limited English. When the patron asked what kind of sauce did they make these chicken wings, they said "Swiss" soy sauce, which is supposed to be "sweet" soy sauce. This is how the name Swiss sauce chicken wings has started.

Fluffy Soft Bread Roll

Enough of the background lesson, we should go back to decide what we should have? A lot of their famous dishes are included in their banquet menu, which included bread roll, entree, main, rice, dessert and tea or coffee. We can also order a la carte. Since the banquet included all the chef recommendation, each of us order different main... Christmas dinner, Banquet for Two and the standard banquet with different main.

Fruit Punch

Fruit punch is my favourite drink when I was young. May be I was allow to drink it once in a long while?

Borscht (羅宋湯)

The borscht uses tomato paste instead of beetroots with beef and lots of different veggies. Other soups which come with the banquet.

Birdnest Soup (燕窩湯)

Having birdnest soup... will I become more beautiful? hahahaha... Birdnest is basically tasteless. The chicken soup base is the main favour of this soup.

Prawn Soup (海龍皇湯)

The signature dishes come...

Swiss Sauce Chicken Wings

Roasted Young Pigeon

Baked Crab Meat in Shell

Roasted Leg of Pork

Baked Quail

All the dishes seems to be using the same dark soy sauce. But the taste of each dish is different. The level of sweetness and saltiness are different. The chef must correctly labelled each sauce is used for which dish. :p

Baked Portuguese Style Chicken

I wonder if I go to Portugal, can I find this dish? :p I would already know this answer. I am quite amaze how they can think of all these names where these places do not have these dishes, such Singaporean fried noodles, Mexican bread?

Beef Stroganoff

The beef stroganoff has been modified. But my Dad told me it is like this since he can remember. 

Baked Souffle

We finish off the meal with their famous Baked Souffle. We first thought it is about a bowl size souffle which can be easier share among us. But... when it arrives... it is bigger than my face! We are struggling to finish it all.

Ice Coffee

It was a great reunion dinner. I wonder when can we all sit down together to dine again? Happy to see everyone is very satisfying with a full stomach!!! :D
