This shop tried to short change us because I was chatting with my husband in English but I knew…read moreCantonese and knew how to read the menu and how much things costs so I confronted them and they tried to play it cool.. They also called me a retard in Cantonese for putting my cash in a tin plate, which was supposed to be used for food. Okay it totally looks like it was for cash but I didn't know? Tsk tsk

Yum yum. This is one of my favourite street food places, and they sell a variety of classic street…read morefood. One of the staples is always the cheung fun (rice rolls), lathered in soy sauce, peanut sauce and sweet sauce, with a sprinkle of sesame. Their stuffed "3 treasures" are good as well. That is another classic dish consisting of green bell pepper, eggplant and tofu, each stuffed with a generous amount of fish paste. It's a difficult dish to get right. If not floured well the fish paste will not stick to the vegetables, and the veggies can get overly soggy due to the deep frying. But not here! They are generous with the amount of fish paste, and the vegetables were fried to decent crispiness. This is food that seems like they should be everywhere but is slowly getting replaced by trendy foods. It's also very difficult to get decent versions of these outside of Hong Kong. I highly recommend just stopping by and trying a few things as breakfast or afternoon snack.

Tai O Fishing Village. Quaint little fishing village on Lantau Island…read more Fishermen's homes are on stilts on the water. You can take a mini boat ride to view the homes up close. Lots of stalls/vendors selling dried seafood, fish balls, etc. for the tourists. As we were leaving, we saw a sign for a pink dolphin tour! Can't get any more touristy than that, but it still sounds like it would be cool if you could actually spot a few pink dolphins. Maybe next time...

Tai O Fishing Village is one of my favorite places of all time to visit in HK, although technically…read moreit is on Lantau Island. To get to Tai O, you need to take the MTR to Central, then change to the Tung Chung line and go all the way there. Then take the #11 bus (45 min ride) or 30 min taxi (running HK$180 to $200) one way. And voila...food, glorious food, and snacks galore, after some walking and exploring. 肥妹燒烤小食 (Fei Mui, or Chubby little sister) is a small eatery that is difficult to miss once you wander into the area. Just look for the signage, but more importantly, someone grilling shellfish galore, smothered in garlic, or cheese, or just a very simple marination like soy sauce or salt/pepper. The smell alone will entice you to come over. Loss of willpower will lead you to just walk into the eatery, grab a stool and start ordering. Don't know what to get? Grilled prawn - HK$35 each (with garlic or cheese) Grilled abalone - HK$40 each Baked oyster with cheese - HK$20 each Grilled scallop on the shell - HK$35 each Sea snails in spicy sauce - HK$45 per plate. This is typical dai pai dong/HK style "izakaya" beer food and of course, cheese baked/grilled lobster - HK$160 each Best bets: grilled prawns (with garlic), abalone, and scallops. Eat like a king (or a mayor) in the village on the cheap! (Dude, we are not in Sendai or Aomori Japan, where you buy fresh seafood off the vendors and take it to the eatery to grill with butter, the quality is not the same here obviously).

Our group divided across the restaurant for a solid thirty minutes so we could hawk around and scout for a table. The fans distributed across the location made the weather bearable. Plastic chairs, clear plastic table cloth. Definitely wash your dishes once more just to play it safe - Timing: because of the sheer popularity of this place, I was already full by the time they started bringing our 4th and 5th dishes as it took about 30+ minutes for it to come out. I had already filled up on the first 3. Don't be surprised if you have to wait 45+ min for a table on busy weekend evenings.

I dropped by mid afternoon on a weekday and there was only 1 person ahead of me. Service was not great - they didn't seem that interested in taking orders and I had to wait a bit until they were settled and ready. To their credit, the bubble waffle came out quickly and hot - the first few bites were crispy on the outside but almost a bit too hard. I only ate about 1/3 of it. It was nothing special. Too bad because it is a local joint and my go-to when I visit Hong Kong as I generally stay in the same area.

雞蛋仔 has always been my comfort snack food when I was a child. Especially during the colder months,…read morenothing beat holding and snacking on an order of freshly made 雞蛋仔. Back then most of the ones I had was just some random places on the street. I don't recalled that 雞蛋仔 from北角being the best? But seems like now it is a franchise all around Hong Kong. After eating 永華麵家, we ended up coming here to continue our Wanchai food crawl. There was no lines so it only took around 10 minute or less for my order to be ready. I love that freshly prepared smell. Crispy on the outside and soft/chewy on the inside with just a hint of sweetness.... and of course the aroma of egg! Just the way I like mine!
