look over my shoulder as I explore rural hong kong

MY YUMMY LUNCH
Stir-fried beef with peach and eggplant, (蜜桃茄子炒牛肉飯) is new dish at Fairwood. Interesting combination, but not as good as their sweet an sour pork.
HONG KONG
MY YUMMY LUNCH
MY YUMMY DINNER with tartar sauce, pickles, and garlic bread washed down with Chardonnay.
Nothing like homemade chilli con carne with beef, pork, and three kinds of beans, topped with raw onions, raw tomatoes, three kinds of cheese, and as many kinds of salsa as you've got in your cupboard.
MY YUMMY DINNER
Best sweet and sour pork in #hongkong?
Japanese curry and rice with chicken hamburger and cheese! So #YUMMY!
Made from rice vermicelli noodles, #curry powder, #vegetables, scrambled egg, and at least one of the following: char siu, #shrimp, #chicken, and/or #beef, Singapore noodles are a popular dish in #hongkong. Interestingly, they have nothing to do with #singapore. In fact, they were invented by a chef from #taiwan working in Hong Kong. Take out from 錦益茶樓 in Kwu Tong in the #newterritories.
