自家素食 (黃大仙) Vegetarian Life

Apart from dine in, they also have the usual vegetarian snacks to take-out, and even sushi too.
I found one of the staff to be particularly pushy, I had only looked at the sushi, and she already started packing it in a box for me.
I was going to get some anyway, but I didnt like the way she tried to sell it all to me, as there was only a few pieces left, I have tried vegetarian sushi before at Lai Chi Kok (not listed on Openrice yet, but that restaurant is quite good, especially their lunch).
I got the minced tuna, and tuna sushi.
Both looked like the real thing, the tuna sushi does actually tastes like the real thing, slightly opaque, and not too chewy.
The minced tuna was a bit bland.
*No photos, as the woman was too pushy!!* perhaps if I took a photo of that woman would be more helpful
[Review 467] 04/10/2009 Fried japanese food @ 近又吉列黑豚專賣店 (旺角) Kinmata Tonkatsu

Came here just to try their fried snacks, ordered the curry burato, fried curry rice ball, which is similar to the Italian version, except the Italian version is not that crunchy on the outside.
Surprisingly the curry rice ball was quite nice, and the cheese in the centre went well with the curry rice.
The next snack was fried edamame beans and potato croquette, it tasted rather plain and boring and need sauces to spice it up.

[Review 466] 04/10/2009 Massive scallops!! @ A Style International Ltd. 優質堂國際有限公司 (葵涌)

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/massive-scallops-e2034263
While shopping at Diamond hill, they had a food fair, so walked by and saw A Style had a stall there.
They had their usual range of frozen seafood ready to eat once thawed, including their big spider like crabs and shellfish.
For their cooked snacks they had ready to eat big scallops for $20, a choice of buttered or Teriyaki.
I got the Teriyaki, and the scallops were quite big, the orange part was the best, usually they taste rubbery, but this one tasted velvety just like pate and fish roe.
In terms of scallop anatomy, the orange part is the ovary-testis according to the Fisheries and Aquaculture Department .

Selected a good time to visit this place, didnt have to queue up.
I liked the way the desserts were served, they came in separate dishes on the plate.
Ordered the pancakes with ice-cream and cherries, coconut jelly with cherries, and fried hazelnut with cheese.
Pancakes with ice-cream and cherries: basically it was layered pancakes with cream in between it, the pancakes tasted how it should, the cherries may have been soaked with alcohol, as there was a slight taste of it.
Coconut jelly with cherries: the coconut milk was slightly sickly and sweet, i would of liked the dessert plainly with the coconut jelly and cherries. Maybe I will request without the coconut milk next time. Also the the name on the menu says white peach, I couldn't taste much of it, but it tastes good like that without the white peach.
Fried cheese with hazelnuts: I really liked the neatly wrapped pocket with Mascarpone and hazelnut, the oil used was still fresh, and the pastry was slightly crunchy and chewy, and when you pierce a hole in the pastry, the air will come out and the pocket deflates!! The pastry was a bit like thick fried filo pastry.
At first i couldn't taste the hazelnut, but then i could tastes bits of it, also they were fresh hazelnuts pieces, i could taste the membrane lining of the hazelnut.
I also wanted to try the blueberry coconut jelly offered to VIP's, hmm how do i become a VIP???tongue
Anyway next time I want to try the coconut sorbet which i was told wasn't sour, but are not sorbets meant to be sour?? I also want to try the baked chocolate with cherry filling, and the baked filo with banana and chestnut!!
The revolution continues, until my next visit!! This world is also a small place, coincidentally a patron that sat on the table next to me was on the same MTR as me on the journey to Mong Kok.
Improvements: a little pest control needed, so many insects flying about and dead insects on the seat.

I wonder if this is the last mooncake of the year, but like I said i do not eat the lotus paste one!
I only tried this because it is from Shangri La, same as all the other Lotus ones, the lotus paste is very dense, after swallowing a high percentage of it, still had the paste stuck to my upper palate!
To me, it just tastes like any ordinary lotus mooncake, however the lotus paste was overly dry!

Came here only because my cousin suggested this place, he dosnt usually eat Chinese, but when I tried the dishes I knew why.
Sai Kung has a lot of people who live in UK, and they usually have Chinese restaurants or takeaways over there, and the food served here is rather similar to that.
The curry here is very good, the Oversea's Chinese takeaway style, same with most of the other dishes.
The salted chicken feet are also very good, not sure what the sauce was, but the texture is like sand and oil mixed together!!!

[Review 462] Jockey Club food @ 賽馬會滘西洲高爾夫餐廳 (西貢) Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course Restaurant

西貢滘西洲公眾高爾夫球場
The Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course, Sai Kung
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/jockey-club-food-e2033639
In general the Jockey club food is good.
I also managed to try the staff canteen food (which is not open to public), located near the caddy hire place.
Good items to have:
Ostrich steak (seasonal), malaijann fried udon (sometimes can be very spicy), Indonesian fried rice, Hainan chicken.
Also the Pro's have a monthly quota's at this restaurant, so let them treat you
(if you know them of course)!
