Eating Trip in Hong Kong again - Day1

As we all enjoy eating, a trip to Hong Kong has been arranged again in this year. 10 adults and 1 child.

Hong Kong as always has drawn all shopping spree from both local and tourists. A long line is queued up outside all the famous brand name shops.

Eating Trip in Hong Kong - Day3

As Yung Kee Restaurant is another on our wish list. The restaurant is very famous for its roast goose. However, my friends prefer the one at Jade Garden. For me, I like the roast pork and fish dish here.
Yung Kee Restaurant : 32-40 Wellington St.; 852/2522-1624


Waffle ball as snack.

And that would be all for our Hong Kong eating trip since we spent almost all the money (more specific term – bankrupt) that we finally decide to have a free dinner on board.

Eating Trip in Hong Kong - Day2



Our youngest member of the trip is Baby Patralada who is a very sweet and good tempered little girl.


We start our day with congee at Nathan congee and noodles on Saigon road (exit B1 at Jordan Station, Nathan Road). The staff here understand Thai. Apart from the sharing dishes, I have the pig’s kidney congee.





Lunch at Jade Garden Restaurant.


Jade Garden : Star House (4th floor), Opposite Star Ferry Concourse, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon
Jade Garden is part of a chain of restaurants owned by the Maxim's Group, a company that has long been wildly successful throughout Hong Kong


“Violet” color seems to be a very hot color for this season. The Christmas decoration around Ocean Park also has violet theme. I also got both the violet shirt and trouser from this trip.















We are lucky that Mi is quite proficient for both the language and the recommended eating places. We go to the Hong Kong side to have dinner at Forum or Ah Yat restaurant, the same chain with the one at the River hotel on Charoen Krung Road, BKK. All dish are yummy to me.

Forum Restaurant (Traditional Chinese: 富臨飯店) was established in 1977 on Lockhart Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. Run by Hong Kong's international chef and ambassador of the Chinese cuisine Yeung Koon Yat (traditional Chinese: 楊貫一), it is one of the most famous eateries in Hong Kong.

Yeung Koon Yat's signature dish Ah Yat Abalone (Yat's abalone) is famous all around the world
The restaurant is highly praised in many articles.


From www.discoverhongkong.com
the abalone has to go through a hydrating process in very rich broth over two days before finally being cooked. "The flavourful broth is made with ham and other upscale ingredients," explains Executive Chef Yeung Koon-yat, "but it has to be rich and not salty - this is the key."

Eating Trip in Hong Kong - Day1

“An army marches on its stomach.” quoted by Napoleon Bonaparte. Although we are not his followers, but we do enjoy eating. Therefore, the main (and maybe “single”) purpose of this trip is to have some delicious “Cantonese” food. So after check-in at the hotel, we head to “Sweet Dynasty” restaurant for lunch.

Dinner at the building across the Harbor City.

Hong Kong & Macau Trip - Day 1


The Avenue of Stars in Kowloon
After so many discussions, we finally decide to take a chance at the airport that if the weather allows, we still go ahead with the trip, if not then we would just go home. Anyway, chance is high that the flight might be canceled like yesterday due to the "Prapiroon" cyclone, so I’ve already canceled the hostel reserved. However, this morning many flights are able to fly to Hong Kong. So finally we arrive in Hong Kong late in the evening and go to the Avenue of Stars on the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront promenade in order to watch the Symphony of Light displayed at the Victoria harbor.

Tonight, the show is not as impressive as it should be due to the very cloudy sky.
