Hakka cha guo @ Lau Fau Shan

A food stall selling salt meat zong and some hakka cha guo in Lau Fau Shan Main St.

"kai xi teng" 雞屎藤 are made of a dark herb called Chinese Fevervine. These chicken droppings-like cha guo are filled with crushed peanuts, have a chewy texture and sweetish taste. They look yucky but taste yummy! ^_~

Shirley Temple mocktail

House salad as starter

Spinach Artichoke dip

Chicken Tequila Fettuccine, spinach fettuccine with chicken, red, green & yellow peppers, red onions and fresh cilantro in a tequila-lime and jalapeño cream sauce. Delicious~

The creamy lemon-caper sauce in the Chicken Piccata stimulates your appetite because of the slight sour taste.

The Spaghetti Carbonara that I had was amazingly good!

I could barely open my eyes, felt sleepy .... badly in need of JAVA!

Azabusabo, Tsim Sha Tsui

I fell in love with Azabusabo's Green Tea Ice Cream with Sweet Potato ever since the 1st time I tasted it! Soft and silk smooth Hokkaido ice cream perched on warm sweet potato cake and doused with green tea sauce! Totemo oishii desu! Absolutely scrumptious! ^_^

... filled with red bean paste~

Soft ice cream with sweet potato and cookies drenched in caramel sauce

Ippei-An Ramen & Bar, Tsim Sha Tsui

I took my cousins to Ippei-An for lunch today. This Japanese restaurant is well-known for their ramen and homemade gyozas.

Tasty tofu topped with finely chopped hanakatsuo (dried, fermented and smoked tuna) served on hotplate

Nagasaki Ramen in flavorful miso soup

Yummy Higomonzu Ramen with char siu and stewed pork in rich & creamy Tonkotsu (pork bone) soup ~

Moon Kee Honeymoon Dessert, Shatin New Town Plaza

Delicious Almond Milk with Snow Jelly (also known as "suet kap" and "Hasma") and lotus seeds.

Snow jelly is prescribed to treat respiratory symptoms such as coughing. I used to cough incessantly for like 6 months. The constant coughing kept me up at night, I tried every cough syrup, drank liters of bitter Chinese herbal soups, unfortunately nothing helped.....until a good friend of my mom advised her to cook snow jelly tong sui with red dates. I drank the sweet soup daily and miraculously in less than a week I got rid of my nasty cough! ^_^
Hasma not only stops coughing but nourishes your skin too! ;)

Coco Espresso, Sheung Wan

Thanks to a coffee lover friend, I've found one of the best coffee shops in town! Coco Espresso is the heaven for coffeeholics like me! Johnson is a super nice and funny guy and he makes excellent cappuccino and caramel latte! ^_^

Small but cozy coffee shop, sociable barista who very much enjoys chatting with his customers :)

A cappuccino for me...

... and a mocha for my friend!

Roast beef toasted sandwich with wasabi mayo, gherkin, tomato and lettuce

Almond muffin

After the delicious cappuccino, I wanted to try their caramel latte too and ordered myself a 2nd cup of coffee! 2 cups of coffee in a row was very unusual for me! ^o^

What makes their coffee so special is the thick layer of very smooth milk foam combined with the pleasant aroma and rich flavor of coffee ^_^ Just h e a v e n l y !

I'm coming back soon, Coco Espresso!

UCC Coffee shop, Shatin New Town Plaza

Before leaving the mall, we hopped in UCC for a quick coffee break!

While waiting for our coffee, I took a photo of my mum. She looks very relaxed, doesn't she? :)

Strawberry waffles with fruit yoghurt

I usually order Sumiyaki coffee (which is Japanese for charcoal roasted coffee) @UCC because of the deep rich aroma and the smooth flavor. The coffee cup and saucer look so lovely with those little flowers! ^^

Watami, Shatin New Town Plaza

Light lunch with dad and mom @ Watami today, we didn't order much as none of us was very hungry. (I planned to have coffee break later so didn't want to eat too much ^_~)

New on the menu, Seafood Cream Pizza. Quite creamy taste wise but I find the crust a bit too soft, I prefer a more crunchier bottom base.

The popular Watami salad

Deep-fried Octopus Cake

Assorted Deluxe Sushi was of course very OISHIIII! ^^
