Weekend Food Tour: Breakfast, Up Up in a Way

Going to Hong Kong is always a morning flight for me! First, the ticket is much cheaper + I need to be in Taiwan office as early as possible to do business. I'm not used to eating breakfast as early as 8am. But, once the  tray delivered, I cannot resist. I love this bread, hot and cheesy!

Here's another set, the bread looks soft but it's not. It's just right the way I want it. Breakfast that will last until I checked in, around 1 or 2 pm :)

I'm not promoting this airline, but I'm a member so I have some privileges :)

Weekend Food Tour: Dried Cuttle Fish

My food tour for this week is just plain dried cuttlefish I had along the harbour in Hong Kong.

The taste is sort of sweet (Cantonese taste) and chewy

It's iron grilled, then shredded in this red machine

A famous snack for tourists

Weekend Food Tour: Beef Rice @ Judy's Wok

I was waiting for taxi right after checking out and I saw this place, Judy's Wok. I wanted to have noodles since I had heavy dinner at House of Tang, but all of their noodles have pork. The owner suggested the beef rice. I'm glad I had it, not much but it's delicious!

Cold soya milk for free, love it, not that sweet!

This reminds me of student meal :)

Look how soft the beef, and the sauce was really tasty...

Yes, that's all I paid compared to House of Tang ($...00 :)

See you next week Hongkong!
I'll be there November 26 -27

Weekend Food Tour: House of Tang

House of Tang Restaurant @ Metropark Hotel

Have you ever tried eating alone in a fancy restaurant? Well, eating in an ordinary restaurant, I tried a lot and here in Taipei, people don't care. I was so tired the whole day of Saturday when I was in Hong Kong last month. I made  reservation in the hotel, since guests had less HK$50 for the bills. I'm alone, and I deserved to eat real Chinese Food (Cantonese Style).

People were looking at me, as if my date didn't come to see me :) I don't care! I felt like I was a queen, treated nicely with the servants :)

First, I was given hot tea. I love this tea, very refreshing!

I had simple egg and corn soup, but it's good!

I tried this Shrimps cooked in Tea, I finished all :)

Chicken with Cashew Nuts.

I didn't finish the chicken, but I munched all the cashew and veges

Especial request, all their fried rice have pork...
 the Chef was so nice to me!

Okay, that's it! I'm stuffed, but wait...
the Chef sent me a deep fried shrimp covered with bread
 for tasting(not in photo), it was good but too much oil

Here's more....

and another one...

What a great experience, I think I would like to do this kind again :) After eating, I went to the room and fell asleep. Mister woke me when he made long distance call around 1am.

Weekend Food Tour: Best Berry Frozen Yogurt

Last week, I was in Hong Kong. The weather was just fine, so I decided to walk around Tsim Sha Tsui before heading to Airport (back to Taipei). I went o iSquare for window shopping. There are lots of places to eat (fine dining and restaurants) that I would like to try. Unfortunately, I'm not hungry! My eyes couldn't resist the temptation of having my favorite frozen yogurt.

So here it is, located at 7th Floor.

I had the ordinary yougurt...

Plus strawberry, blueberry, and mango as toppings.
Next time, I'll for grass jelly, nata de coco, and longan (oriental type)

Light and creamy, yummy!
