Eating out

Tsui Wah Restaurant is one of my favourite joints in HK. It is convenient, just a walking distance away from the church - about ten minutes. So we come here often for lunch on sundays. Although it is always packed, we could always dine in comfortably. That's very important as we now have a little toddler to consider. That's one of the reasons we do not frequent those tiny popular shops with a long queue (that is often associated with out-of-this-world food). So far, I have not gotten tired of eating here yet as the menu displays a wide variety of local food. But then again I tend to choose the same things, particularly the spinach shrimp dumpling noodles. The dumplings have generous amount of spinach and prawns - simply delicious. The broth can be a bit plain so I always add some pepper and their oily chili sauce (don't really know what it is called) to give it more oomph! Hubby simply loves their crispy bun with sweet condensed milk. It is really true to the name - crispy and sweet. Nice! And Annabel's favourite has got to be the fried rice with diced chicken and kale with abalone sauce!

Our shopping break teatime at IFC's Honeymoon Dessert. This is our third time there. The first was at Western Market and the second was at IFC Mall with Cynthia. Clockwise from top left: mango sago dessert, mango dumplings and walnut soup with black glutinuous rice. For some reasons they do not have my favourite peanut paste. A friend mentioned that their durian dessert is yummy too. So that definitely will be the next on my list. Oh and I heard that there a branch in 1Utama, PJ. That's good news indeed.
* I simply must add hubby's motto on eating out in HK, "You can never go wrong with pork (for savoury) or mango (for your sweet tooth) here." Wise words from hubby dear heehee.
