Finally Typhoon Vicente subsided and the first scene that greeted us on the street were plentiful of broken umbrellas and turned-over trash bins on the street but we don’t have time for photographs.

Nam Long Porridge at Mongkok, Hong Kong
On our 3rd day in Hong Kong, we headed to the famous 3 streets (Sai Yeong, Tong Choi & Fa Yuen) area again to find our breakfast having starved without supper the previous night. “Point a place, just point a place.” CS said eagerly. I pointed at a shop just because of the word ‘porridge’ […]
Hong Kong Day 2: Yee Shun Milk Company, Tak Kei Roast Meat and Typhoon Vicente
The weather looked okay as we glanced out from the hotel lobby. So the notorious July rainy tales I had heard, was a hoax anyway?” I thought to myself. We passed by the security’s table and it was manned by a more jovial guard. We uttered good morning in Cantonese. He looked at us and […]

A while ago we noticed this TK Chong Ipoh Hor Fun, not exactly the thing […]
New Ching San Ah Hwa Hokkien Mee, Dimsum Kitchen, PJ Uptown
Recently we ‘discovered’ this place called New Ching San Ah Hwa Hokkien Mee (I know, the name is long) that serves very nice ‘zi char’. Of course, the word ‘discovered’ is not very appropriate to be used because we had pass by this shop numerous time and had know it attract quite a big crowd, […]

Nestled nearby the old The Store Supermarket in Batu Pahat is this hawker street Jalan Peng Kai, or better known as ‘Tam Ciak Guey’ among locals, which literally means Glutton Street in English.
