| Dinner at Star Seafood Restaurant (Ming2 Xing1)
|
|
|
|
|
| Star Seafood Restaurant / Ming Xing Seafood Restaurant. Aside from the
unusual lighting, it looks like any other big Chinese restaurant.
| The platter of Peking duck ingredients.
| My peking duck wrap, complete with a blossom of chives (?) and a light
smear of hoisin sauce.
| I don't remember what this is. It's probably fried seafood of some form.
|
 |
|
|
|
|
| Fried squid (calamari).
| Boiled shrimp, just killed.
| Prawns with squash over udon noodles. I remember liking this dish a
lot.
| Mutton and cabbage soup.
|
 |
|
|
|
|
| Sauteed lobster in a sauce and covered in garlic.
| Shrimp in a clay pot with peppers.
| Clams.
| Abalone. Quite tasty. I should have this more.
|
 |
|
|
|
|
| Whole steamed fish, mostly devoured by this point.
|
We also had shanghai soup dumplings (xiao long bao), which were actually
pretty good (certainly better than I expected). (I've grown picky about
my soup dumplings.)
| Sweet red bean soup for dessert.
| Watermelon to round out the meal.
|
 |
| Elsewhere in Hong Kong Island
|
|
| Heading home, on the tram ride back to the metro station, I spotted this
skyscraper lit to look like steps, or like a volume control or perhaps a
signal meter on a mobile phone.
