This place specializes in grilled meats, hotpots and spicy food.
The highlight for tasting was Iberian pork intestines~~~~
Pork intestines are not really my favourite because they are not usually cleaned properly but I did not refuse this tasting because I don't like to be biased without trying it first.
Fire King is located in Jordan near Austin Station conveniently near the subway exit if you know your way, alternatively you can take the MTR to Jordan which is only a few minutes walk.
Here was what we tried:

Stingray fishpot:
They use fresh Stingrays bought from the local market on a daily basis and ensure that they do not have an unpleasant ammonia taste that the stingrays natrually possess.
I love Stingray's and not many places I know in Hong Kong serve it, there could be others which I have not discovered yet, but this is the second time eating Stingray.
Stingray is similar to Skate but you only eat the wing section of Skate.

Iberian pig intestines pot:
This delicious pot was cooked with a strong concoction of celery, Chinese celery, leeks, basil, black pepper corns, ginger and other spices.
As the name says, the intestines are from Iberian pigs and the intestines are cleaned with special equipment from Germany hence it does not have that weird smell.
I only tried a little bit because it was quite spicy.

Deep fried iberian pig intestines stuffed with prawn patty:
Compared to the spicy pork intestines above, this dish was much nicer because it was deep fried and covered in batter.
Psychologically it tricks the brain in thinking it is something else.
Anyway, it was lovely and crispy and the prawn patty in the middle had a really strong taste.
It was really good that I went to this tasting, otherwise I would not have known that fried intestines could also taste good.

Grilled aubergines :
Fresh thick aubergines are used here and topped generously with chopped garlic.
I really liked its lovely mushy garlicky taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Beef ribs:
It was cool having the beef because it was different to the Western beef on bone.
Here the beef was neatly sliced and convenient to eat.
The beef had some chew to it and it was quite juicy complemented by the mustards.
I tried the first few pieces without the mustard for a beefy taste but after it got a bit heavy the mustard was a good balance to it.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Iberian pork belly:
The grilled pork belly was similar to pork toro, it was soft and part of it were quite fatty.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Pork bone:
The pork bones were tender and juicy and the sauce they used was sweet with crispy sesame seeds on top for an occasional crispy mouthfeel.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Grilled courgettes:
These were juicy courgettes complemented with my favourite cumin.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Grilled beans:
Simple delicious grilled beans with sesame and spices so it was slightly spicy.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Sauces:
There are 15 level of spicyness for their chilis, the plain chili oil is the top level.
I already had trouble with the spicyness of the 5th level, so the 15th is probably a killer!
