Day 2- Yum cha and lots of food :D

[disclaimer: dun read this post if u r craving for supper!]

going back to HK means pigging out :D it was Sunday and we went to yumcha as usual...(yum-cha-ing on a Sunday is a family thing in HK) so this post is all about FOOD! haha.

uncle n aunt had not arrived yet so we ordered something light..yesh, a small bowl of steamed rice was the appetiser XD

[egg & beef steam rice]

[beef hidden underneath the egg! how exciting! XD]

[cheung-fun with presentation]

sis ordered her favourite pan-fried green pepper stuffed with fish meat...how can u not order this during yumcha!? XD this signature dish is not available in any yumcha outlet in sg...what a pity :(

uncle n aunt arrived so we started ordering (hadn't we alr started?! XD) and the usual stuff were ordered: har-kow-siew-mai (they are a couple), beefballs, steamed pork ribs..blahs.

[of cos there is springroll!]

to end off the yum-cha session, we had stir-fried beef hor-fun. damn yummy.

[glistening beef hor-fun, isn't it beautiful?]

after that sis n i went to the toy street at the market. as it was a sunday, it was packed with people. somehow i love the crowd. felt so vibrant and SO alive. we bought the long-awaited model sets, sis chose the sushi set and me, of cos, STITCH & his tropical desserts!!!

by 6.30pm, i was starving (AGAIN?!) and we set off to the "canteen" which is the restaurant situated in the hotel we had yum-cha-ed in the morning...it is our "canteen" cos we often dine out there XD actually, popo & ah gong spent like 1 mth (or longer?) there and it became their canteen for tt period..

anyway, we had something like a ten-course dinner. something like a set meal for..8 people?

first, the SOUP. dun really like soup but it wld be a SIN to waste anything brewed for 3-4 hours.
then the starters.


assortment of BBQ pork, roasted pork, jellyfish, and some sliced duck? forgot to take the photo initially and within 5 minutes the plate was alr half-empty. XD


aunt ordered coke...her fav drink. HK was selling this olympic special version of coke...cute hor.
we had lotsa food later...do i ve to mention all of them? YES, i should haha..

[sweet & sour pork]


[steamed fish]


[prawn french toast]


[chinese-style steak, cooked with ketchup, sis's n my FAVOURITE!!!!]

[fried rice]
[v salty chicken in a pot]
[chicken head!!!! ARGHHHH]

although we were v full, we ended the dinner with dessert...red bean soup for me. yummy...
