Breakfasts in Hong Kong is always great, it could be in a restaurant with timsum or like this simple porridge joint





While waiting for your porridge to be freshly made can order their fun-cheong or our chee cheong fun. I like the Hong Kong style with peanut sauce and chili



Here comes the porridge - lean meat with pork liver



Submerine u-char-kway this is how I like it

After breakfast if game can go for the 24hrs massage, this is what I call progressive city



Lucky for the Hongkongers, the Indian ma-ma still not occupy corners like this unlike western cities





Always wonder how food in this 茶餐厅 taste, always very long queue

If you want a good Cantonese meal can try Lei Garden. Believe they are in Singapore too. This is at

Shop Nos. 2068-70, Second Level, Elements, No.1 Austin Road West, Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong, Tel (852) 2196 8133

Never know XueGe 雪蛤 or hasma can be use as a soup as I always thought it s for sweet soup only. Super delicious



The things in the soup


Cold dishes - cucumber and black fungus

Night music and wine at the Intercontinental over looking Hong Kong Island - highly recommended for a nice night view of Hong Kong island. Take note that drinks are a little expensive here.
