Tai Hing Roasted Goose

Tai Hing has been running the Roasted Goose and Char Siu for many year in Tsuen Wan, right beside Wing Wah Lap Cheung. They moved to the corner just opposite Standard Chartered Back as a Tai Pai Tang operation,
From our side, you can see a very clean and beautiful window displaying those Roasted Goose and Char Siu, Roasted Pig...that make you mouth watering.
Since Chui Wah does not have these Chinese Roasted Goose, Char Siu, Tai Hing has certain advantage over Chui Wah.
Price for a plate of Roasted Goose, (left side) is HKD$51.00, please a Red bean Ice Cream add another HKD$10.00. It is not cheap at all. But the Roasted Goose is nice, not having the Century oil smell, the meat is tender and juice. Recommended for a winter Lunch. The Char Siu is too healthy, too dry, So if you take Char siu, you can ask for more fat...or better don't eat it..
Attached picture is in Sheung Wan, alongside with Chui Wah, right acorss the Old Central market.

What is the best bowl of Cantonese brisket Beef noodle!? Or the lousy one!?

A bowl of beef noodle should be having tender and juicy beef, not too dark in colour as they might be too much time in stewing. Losing the natural favour of the beef, too soft will lose some chewy feeling of a beef, too hard tough will lose my tooth during chewing..
And the beef should not be too lean, they are prone to be best if they have 20% fat, not necessary those what has intense marbling and to producing a high percentage of oleaginous unsaturated fat.
The soup and the beef should not be salty; some of the Northern Chinese people may like the taste to be heavy, but heavy does not mean Salty… Only poor people eat salty food as they have to in order to keep their body fluid to be enough sodium Chloride or they will have problem in the muscle and they will not have the strength in handling tough heavy works.
We are not…the farmer, we do not eat too much salt for better health, we like good light and clear soup of the beef favour.
The beef should be good one, not necessary Angus, nor the five star Wagru, but they can not be a very tough one.
When we prepare the beef, we should out it in hot water for a 1-2 minutes… and rinse under cold water., the prepare the Recipe of the sauce for the beef.,
My mother taught me… deep fry the wok, put some soya bean sauce, a piece of Nam Yu, and some Chur Hou Paste from the Chinese grocery shop for sauce. Put a few pieces of Fa Chiu. And garlic, stir beef in pieces for a couple of minutes, reduce the fire and add some water just to cover the beef, Put a large price of Bing Tong (ice block sugar, a secret formula to make beef juicy and tender… then wait for the good smell of the beef to be generated in the whole building of where you are staying…
Well, back to this bowl of noodle, I called this is the Lousiest noodle I have never had in the year… The shop was packed with people, 90% Chinese shopper at Sogo, causeway bay, the shop is juts behind the Sogo near by Chui Wah Eatery.
The beef is very salty… the soup was salty too, they come with a spoon of Chinese Onion and some minced garlic had been deep fried… I think this is one of the non-Cantonese way to serve Beef noodle… But I have seen many times in many shops they serve this, I never had a good beef noodle, if you can tell one of the shops that serve good beef noodle, please tell me and I would love to go and try… We did not use the Chinese Onion at all, and I believe it will make a lousy noodle even worse.
One bowl of this noodle is HKD$26.00. Too expensive, The Toothpick in side the noodle was an accident that I dropped into it... Does not mean to humilate the shop…
Conclusion, I will never go again to this shop though they business is very good!
Supported by the Mainland Chinese rich shoppers…

New Orleans Fine steak and Ribs Restaurant

We had a dinner celebration on what we have done yesterday for some successful sales proposal for one of the most important csutomers in Manila. This is New Orleans...switched from Tao Yuan that found no seats for us. The Oyster is local Philippines, tasted quite juicy and had a light brisk favour of Manila Bay Sea Water! The Clam Chowder soup was very thick, in fact it was too thick but was mouthwatering. Steak is OK! and They did real medium cooking, I did not had to purposely called for Medium Rare! It was about the right price as standard of Manila. The K9 Guard dog showed a smiling face to welcome my tender hands' massage for him. The place was in Resort World, opposite Manila Airport Terminal 3. It was a hot place for drinks and Dinner. And a lot of Hot Women too!!

Yellow Cab Pizza

Yellow Cab does not run in Hong Kong, The one I tasted was in Manila, the pizza can be very large as up to 18 inches. They make it quite healthy not like those heavy and thick pizza that stuffed with a lot of Cheese!

Try this next time you go Manila.

Curry Beef in Japanese Favour at Manila Airprot T1

Beside the Pork Chop, we can hve another Asian Favourite; Japanese Beef Cury Rice... It is almost the same as I took in Osaka some years back, but it is less Sweet as the Japanese. All depends on your taste buds. If I were able to select, I will add abit more sugar for the right favour. It is about P450.00

So next time you can try this Curry Beef at Terminal One of Manial Airport 2nd floor restaurant.

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!
