Jan-chan’s Tidbits

Dai Pai Dong - Our dinner on the first night in HK. Need a flash for iPhone.

Dai Pai Dong - This is just a small portion of the tables for this restaurant. You have to look for tables yourself by waiting for people to leave (basically you stand near a table there looks like they are almost done and claim it as yours once they leave).

Korean BBQ Cuttlefish. I couldn't see or taste any special seasoning but it was really good. I like the chewy texture.

A combo from Cafe De Coral, a chain fast food restaurant.

Another combo from Cafe De Coral. This one has chicken and shitake mushroom.

Yes...more food photos from Cafe De Coral. It's Al's favourite place for a quick "snack". This is the BBQ duck.

Che Jai Mian from this hole in the wall place. You can see the wall in the photo (lol) the table, or bench I should say, is only about a foot wide. To place an order, you pick your noodles (thick cut or thin noodles) and your topics (there are around 8-12 to choose from). Once the noodle is ready you pay and pick it up from a window.

Durian Pancake from Moon House Dessert (chain restaurant). Basically it's a crepe with cream and fresh durian filling. The crepe does not have durian flavour, that's just green colouring.

Here's another durian pancake, but it's from a little dessert place in Kowloon Tong area. I like this one more than the one from Moon House Dessert. The crepe is freshly made and there isn't a lot of cream in the filling.

Here's another dessert from the place in Kowloon Tong (forgot the name). It's strawberry souffle with a scoop of mango ice cream and lavender tea. The souffle was really good! I love Asian dessert because it's usually less sweet than Western ones.

This is the honey aloe drink I mentioned in the previous post. My throat was always dry and I found this the perfect remedy. I bought it at a food court above a supermarket (I believe it's City Super) in Central.

Coffee from McDonald. Not only do they look good, McDonalds in Hong Kong (and probably in many places in Asia) also have lattes, mocha and other specialty coffee. Wish we have that here.

I mentioned environmental bags in the previous post. Here's what the strawberry ones look like. Just unflip them and they'll turn into a decent size shopping bag, great for grocery shopping.

Doggy photo #1, this is Chiko. He loves it when people massage his head. If you stop, he'd use his nose to nudge your hand above his head to continue the massage.

Doggy photo #2: this is Magic, my aunt's dog. He's super friendly and playful.

I got to meet Kaya during my HK visit. Our lunch was pretty short but it was great to finally get to meet up! Can't wait till the next time. ♥
