Monster Sushi at Langham Place MongKok



The place was once the famous Funky Fish that Closed their business 4 years ago. This is Monster Sushi, the food is reasonable OK and place is quiet. A place that you can spend your afternoon comfortably in the brisk Mongkok district with your beloved one.

Jade Garden in Tsuen Wan, The Grandest Restaurant in Tsuen Wan

The Grandest Restaurant in Tsuen Wan.
This is the Jade Garden in Tsuen Wan MTR station.
Originally, it was the Caesar Cinema. And was converted from Cinema into Chiu Kwong Chun, and then some 4 years ago, Maxim group converted it from Chiu Kwong Chun into the Jade Garden. The dishes is typical Maxim standard… nothing special Cantonese! but the place is magnificent! Especially you go for a Marriage Dinner party!
You see the height of the restaurant! It is very huge like a Concert hall. I still remember I was one of the THREE people who watched the last showing movie on the last day it closed the movie business. I forget the name of the film, might be an X-rated movie… hmm!

The Front portion was actually the screen of the Caesar Cinema.

It is just 2 minutes walking distance away from Tsuen Wan MTR station Exit C.

Likely The best Dom Yam Kung in Cebu

There is a Thai restaurant at Marina Mall some 3 Km away from Cebu Airport. The Dom Yam Kung is exceptional delicious... You should order this when you come across this restaurant and if you like Thai food, but other dishes are not Authentic Thai at all.

The Most Expensive Hamburger in TST

Well, Why I said the most expensive Hamburger, it contains the meaning that it is not worth it.

For a Set of Hamburger which they said contains Australia Waygu Beef, some French Fries, and a Vanila Milk Shakes. It took me HKD$178.00 after 10% it is almost HKD$200.00

And It was not as good as Macdonal Hamburger. Well this is another Big hot Hi Tea selection restaurant located at Tsim Sha Tsui between Ocean Terminal and Ocean Centre. We have to queue up. It is BLT Berger.

I took a glass of hosue Red wife, total amount I paid was over HKD$350.00

Well, I think I will not go back again!

Toyaha Jumbo Water Melon

This is a Jumbo Water Melon imported from Japan, Available at Great Super Martket at Pacific Place. Price is HKD$1280.00, more expensive that the Square Water Melon. Taste? Well, I will not buy as that is for consumption of min, 10 people. I would rather go for a bottle of Rather Good Red wine at this price. Instead I bought some Japanese peach on left of the Water Melon. About HKD$80 each, that is rather affordabe for me.

Decent Japanese Food in a Cozy environment at an affordable price

Decent Japanese Food in a Cozy environment at an affordable price...
If you ask me this question, I would recommend Tsim Sha Tsui’s Susho Hiro
Located at Canton Road.
This is a up floor Japanese Restaurant running by Japanese, as we know there have been a great difference between Japanese Sushi made by Japanese and Local Hongkonger.. yes, because there is no one who can make better Wanton Noodles that the Hong Konger… Same reason applies for Sushi and Sashimi.
There is daily fresh supply of Oyster, Japanese Crab, and Toro, if you want to taste a authentic Japanese cuisine. Sushi Hiro is the Choice, his assistance also can offer you a skillful cut of Sashimi and the right Sushi made fresh at the appropriate temperature… Talk to Suzuki Masashi the MD of the restaurant at the Sushi bar.
Location ; 7/F The Toy House, 100, Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowllom tel 23779877

Hi Tea At Cafe Landmark Central

What do you expect that you can get with HKD$250 inclusive 10% service Charge for 2 persons Hi Tea in central of HK!? Well, this is it... The Carousel of Cakes, Dim Sum, Siu Mai with touches of Shark Fins and a Abalone as topping Spring Rolls is served hot.... Plus one two Drinks... at a Place where the Price of a square Foot of space is about HKD$40,000.00! Cheap! But you get to queue up and register... the line is quite long. Probably you can meet some of the City Celebrities and movies stars, note those with Sun Glasses!

Sam Dou Fish

In My humble opinion, Sam Dou could be the Most Delicious Steamed Fish.
This is the so Called “Sam Dou Fish” very hard to find, and very expensive, a fish of length of about 8” (weight about 10 taels) will cost about HKD$1,200.00 if you order at Prince Restaurant at Peking One, canton Road. Similar Fish you can find at Tao Yuan Mei Foo Sun Chuen at about HKD$800.00. and may be HKD$600 at Sam Sin Tsuen near Tsuen Mun. But usually these kinds of fish would not be easy to find.
And normally you have to order in advance one day at Prince restaurant,
So Far the best steamed fish is Prince as they use the virgin soya sauce mixed with water at certain ratio, put some chicken essence, sugar and stir under mild temperature. They use good quality oil and they service the soya sauce and oil in tow separate bowls. Instead on put it on the steamed fish.
If you like fish, you have to go for this.

World's 50 Most Delicious Foods

The Winner, Thailand's Massaman Curry.

You are what you eat, you eat what you are.. Food keeps us alive, and food brings us taste, hope, life, satisfaction, appreciation and gratification!
These are the 50 most delicious foods chosen by CNNgo, though there is always debatable for the taste, and this is not fair to some of the greatest food we have had,
How about the Hong Kong Famous Wanton Noodles, Char Siu, and Philippines Lechon!?
Stinky Tofu is Typical Chinese Food, why it is South East Asian food!? Hong Kong has just Egg tart and French Toast? I like Thai food, part of the reason why my wives are. Thai. But Do you know the Yam Pla Too foo is so much tasteful which is better than the Som Tam and even Tom Yam Goong, but I could not find it out from the list.
Well USA is Winningest for 7 items, Thailand for 4. I have no question on Thailand as their food is fantastic, but USA! I doubt! USA has not much of its own cooking culture.
France, only the Croissant? China has just Peking Duck, which is one of my most dislike items out of ten, How about Hong Kong Roast goose!? Anyway, do not take it so seriously and do appreciate your taste and choose the best food you like.
Some foods you eat to stay alive, others you eat because not to would be a crime. Here are those foods worth traveling the world to gorge on
