HongKong - a food paradise!

A short getaway to Hongkong. I remember sitting at the cafe in the nottingham train station, and the idea of going to HK suddenly came to me. My EJ and i intended for it to be a budget trip, for just the 4 of us (my DJ, EJ bro and I). but my dad dotes on us so much that he made it into a family trip! a pity my DJ couldn't take any more leave (since she just took a week to go to london and paris).

I really enjoyed myself. ate like a pig. met awesome people. was blessed with great weather. (: had a good time with my family!

My parents usually find "street food" unhygienic but my sis and i love trying anything odd and different! these curry fishballs (actually they taste more like tiny sotong balls) were super yummy! possibly my favourite snack in hk. and here's a shot of my EJ posing with it.

The famous egg waffles! they're light, fluffy and awesome! crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. 

I LOVE local bakeries like these! the freshly baked pastries smell soo good and look delicious! best part, they weren't expensive at all!

butter bo po bao. who invented something SO delicious and fragrant??

deep fried french toast with peanut butter and syrup. heart attack food, but OH SO GOOD!

more curry fishballs. these were more expensive and less tasty. 

Lord stow's famous egg tarts! 

the branch in the venetian casino in Macau. not that fantastic. i actually enjoyed the ones in the old traditional bakeries in the city. too bad i didn't take a picture!

My dad enjoying his gui lin gao! really expensive and super bitter. not my type of thing. hoho.

the places we visited:

we also went to the star avenue, the peak, etc. (the typical tourist attractions). i think my favourite was the trip to lantau island! 

more on food on the next post. (:
