cold crab
One is all the same tweaking the blueprint - cutting dorsum on the coloring fabric in addition to making it to a greater extent than "clean cut" for the pictures in addition to the text to last easily seen. I've also geotagged a few of the recent blog posts in addition to hence only click on the link below it in addition to it'll opened upwardly up to the location map. Very much WIP in addition to hence delight demeanour alongside me? Anyway, dorsum to the really overdue Hong Kong posts. This particular one, I hollo back alongside a core (or to a greater extent than probable a tummy) ache every bit the nutrient was in addition to hence incredibly proficient in addition to introduced past times my guide, J from Elegant Inn. Hong Kong's Teochew or Chiu Chow nutrient is in addition to hence much meliorate than the fare nosotros accept hither addition they too accept a diversity of quondam manner dishes non commonly establish inwards restaurants nowadays. Everything I tasted at this famous eatery was summit notch fifty-fifty though it was really uncomplicated fare.
salt in addition to pepper fish slices
Frequented past times many including the good heeled (in Hong Kong, these are the ones that come upwardly inwards their luxury cars every bit they work the route inwards forepart of the restaurant), this house is too nicknamed the "rich man's canteen". The eatery is spread to a greater extent than or less a few shophouses along the street in addition to booking particularly during the weekends is a must or else, forget dining here.
window action, chewier prawn omelette, goose in addition to bloom crabs inwards window, o chien
We start off alongside the mutual frigidness bloom crab, a Chiu Chow specialty in addition to a uncomplicated dish, which allows you lot to bask the sweetness gustation of the crabs. The meat is in addition to hence fresh that it comes out inwards beautiful chunks - literally a crab-lover's sky to eat. How I wishing to a greater extent than places produce this mutual frigidness crab dish here.
decadent braised goose liver slices
Braised duck is a must hither but inwards Hong Kong, it is a piddling special every bit its braised goose. Our dish of braised goose slices come upwardly topped alongside decadent thick slices of goose liver. Yummy to the concluding tenny weeny combat (even though 1 tin experience the arteries clogging up!).
oyster soup, fluffy tofu, Tsingtao beer to launder it all down
Even a uncomplicated tofu dish tastes awesome hither - puffed into golden ingots that you lot dip into a salty jump onion dip to reach it flavour. I couldn't resist the chicken dish - boneless pieces pan fried inwards a delectable sauce served on a bed of crunchy fried leaves (I think they await similar mulberry ones?).
tau suan for dessert
As usual, there'll last oysters lurking to a greater extent than or less a Teochew repast in addition to hither they are served inwards 2 ways - outset inwards a soupy (another rare 1 hither for me fifty-fifty though I've eaten this earlier inwards Kelantan in addition to Melaka) form of porridge where cooked rice grains are used in addition to cooked alongside jump onions, minced pork, preserved radish in addition to sliced mushrooms. Incredibly comforting for the tummy. The instant agency was the oyster omelette or o chien style. Here it is wetter in addition to less crispy, where the oysters are hidden underneath an innocent looking omelette. We too accept a flatter in addition to chewier version but alongside prawns in addition to a type of dark-green coloring fabric gourd.

divine yam pieces
Last but non least, desserts that is a must for whatever Teochew place. They had the really rarely seen Tau Suan - a dessert made alongside split upwardly dark-green beans in addition to of course, the always famous yam dessert, Or Nee. We had to hold off for a piece to larn our desserts every bit at that topographic point was a mix upwardly inwards our orders but it was good worth it - fluffy yam glue alongside lard in addition to topped alongside gingko nuts.
the must-have or nee
I was too introduced to some other dessert non ordinarily seen hither - deep fried yam pieces that are coated inwards a candy similar saccharide coating. Light fluffy yam is paired alongside a sweetness coating that tasted in addition to hence incredibly proficient that I had a few pieces. Do operate inwards a signal to driblet past times if you're inwards Hong Kong every bit its definitely peachy to gustation these quondam styled dishes which are fast dissapearing from the menus.
