Just realised I have not finished posting up the food places i ventured while in Hong Kong.
Yes, it has been a long time but good food still deserve to be recommended.
And certainly, good food will not run!
LOL!

This is my favorite food place during my trip.
I would vote this place as BEST DIM SUM..
I wouldnt say it’s the best to all but best to me..at least as compared to those I have eaten.

蓮香樓
160-164 Wellington Street, Lan Kwai Fong (Central)
Opening time: 6am to 11pm


This dim sum place is famous among the locals.
However, be prepared for quirky service and treatment by the wait staffs.
They are known to be abit more not so friendly. They don’t care about customer service.
But, their dim sum is good & cheap~


And be prepared to share table with others.
But not to worry, the locals are friendly. They were nice to me and Mr K then.
Helped us to order tea & brief us the culture of the dim sum plc.

Practically. To get good food, you will have to keep up your Singaporean Spirit at that place.
Once the trolley is pushed out, RUN!Run to it!

We took turn to dash and these are my favorite…

Shrimp Chee Cheong Fan

I swear. Really. This is fabulously GOOD! Never eaten this in Singapore! Gosh..Just looking at the picture, it reminds me of the fragrance of the generously placed shrimps, together with the chee cheong fan and veggies in it. Every bite every shrimp…goosh. “Heaven”. Almost go for 2nd plate.

If I need to give a rating..
It will be 6Stars out of 5!lol~

Quail Egg Siew Mai

Quail egg? I am absolutely so in love with this quail egg siew mai! So nice that I only had one. Mr K quickly grabbed the last piece! It’s really that good! It is very different from the siew mai we have in Singapore. Those super “solid” and hard skinned siew mai. yikes.
But in there, quail egg and prawn/meat are separated. Soft & Yummy.

Another 6Stars out of 5!

Ma Lai Kueh

Soft Soft Fluffy Fluffy Sweet Sweet~Nice~!^_^

They have many weird weird dim sum that I have not seen or tasted it before. They are famous for their intestine stuff I think.

Must Try if you are going Hong Kong!!!!

強記美食

382 Lockhart Road (Wan Chai)

Glutinous Rice

Soft yet chewy and delicately delicious. Favour the marinated dry shrimp. So Yummy!

Pan Fried Cheong Fan

The difference is this is pan fried. There wasn’t any filling. Just a simple cheong fan with their sauces and it is heavenly already!
Well, sometime the most simple dish is the toughest dish to prepare. Indeed! Feel so local! 

I missing it already. Especially the cheong fan. =(

Well, this is something that I wanted to try- Tomato soup base Mac and pork chop.


勝香園

It’s just opposite of the beef noodle stall I blogged previously.
It’s more of a street style hawker which serve many local delicacy.
Sad to say, I have only one stomach. Thus, did not try all that were recommended in the site.
Just this..

 

Tomato Soup Base Mac+Pork Chop+Hot dog
I am not a lover of tomato soup at all. And seriously, I was quite curious of how this not appealing dish made an impact in many local hearts. I was eager to try. And I did. Tomato-ly. Homely Comfort Food – the description I have on this dish. The feeling it gave me is like I am eating a bowl of maggi mee+egg+pork chop comfortably on the sofa with my television on. The difference is that this is tomato soup base and it was tasty. Comfy food. Not too heavy on its tomato taste.

I like the pork chop too. It wasn’t too tough and its saltiness was just right. 
Overall, I shall give a thumb up for this dish.
As mentioned, there were other dishes like 牛油檸蜜脆脆, 心形豬仔包. (Butter Lemon Toast and Pork chop Bun).
The toast looked tasty and delicious in both picture and in reality. Wanted to try but too bad my partner called it a day for his stomach then. =(

Oh well….
Hope there will be a next time!

Back then, Mr K wanted to eat something beefy and thus, this was added even though I nt a beef person.
We get to know it from a food show some time back. 

九記牛腩
21 Gough Street, (Central)
Tel: +852 2815 0123
Opening time: 1230pm to 1130pm
Nearest MTR: Upper Central (Shang Huan)

清湯腩 (Beef Noodle)

It looks good! I tried the soup and it was superb good! I don’t mind just having the soup itself. The soup is a delicacy!
This particular shop is particularly famous among the locals. A queue will be seen outside the shop during peak hours. 
And the flow of customers to the shop is non-stop even at 3pm. Well, certainly explain its reputation. However, they have some policy to dine in. Every customer has to meet the requirement of spending HKD26 at least in the shop. I am not sure what they will do to you if you don’t but why I feel the rule is abit….=_=
A stop that should not be missed if you are a beefy person.

Trying out the food is probably the most memorable for my Hong Kong Trip.
At least, I was happy when I was dining. 
Before my trip, I did a detailed research on food in Hong Kong (openricetable site).
And, I was so dying to try their wanton, especially this stall- 麥文記麵家.
According to the foodie people from the site, the wanton is wrapped with only PRAWN.
Prawn, my favorite seafood. 

No. 51 Parkes St., (Jordan)

Tel: +852 2736-5561

Opening time: Noon to 1230am

Nearest MTR: Jordan

And there are 2 PRAWNS in each wanton!!!!!!!!!!!

I lovvvvve it~~~!!!!!The prawns are fresh, crunchy and lightly salted. My trip partner(Mr K) and I were practically snatching for more!!!! I was craving for it even on the day of my departure from Hong Kong. Gosh, I am missing it right now.

蝦子撈麵 (Shrimp Noodle)

I know it doesn’t look a bit like shrimp at all. It’s name and appearance caught my attention so I gave it a try. However, hongkie people have a slightly different eating style from us. They like to serve plain noodle with the “main” and allow the consumer to use their creativity to flavour their meal. Thus, lot of sauces were placed at the same. I had no idea which to put and just try. 
It tasted unique. Goes well with chilli. =p

Another  focus of this meal is their oyster sauce. Sad to say, I did not get a shot of it. The oyster sauce is probably the best sauce I have tasted so far. Seem like it is home made and even in the menu, they specifically assigned pricing to the oyster sauce itself.
Goes well with veggie. yum~~~!

Well, this is probably a stall to visit if you are heading to Hong Kong.
