I have begun to like Sichuan foods recently because the spices are addictive.
SiChuan Da Ping Huo started as a private kitchen which got famous with a nice art gallery inside and if your lucky there is a singing performance that is like Western opera sung in Chinese.
All, I can say is that they do it really spicy here so if you love spicy dishes, this is the right place to go.
++++++++++
Lettuce Wrap with Minced Pork and Celery Bites:
This is similar to Thai style minced pork but the chili flavouring and other spices taste more prominent.
++++++++++
Spicy Fried Prawns with Lotus Root:
The prawns were paired with these delicous crispy lotus roots which are like super spicy crisps!
++++++++++
Traditional Steamed Prawns:
Beneath the prawns was glass vermicelli that is fiery having absorbed the spicy sauce!
++++++++++
Sichuan Spicy Chicken Pot:
I liked this dish because I love chicken in a spicy gravy sauce.
++++++++++
Mouth-Watering Chicken:
This is a popular favourite but it seems spicier compared to other places!
++++++++++
Hot and Sour Jelly Noodle:
I think this was the spiciest dish of the night and it seems that any Sichuan dish that is hot and sour is really spicy.
++++++++++
Chengdu Fish Fillets in Hot Chili Oil:
The fish was silky but not as spicy as it looks.
++++++++++
Mrs Wang’s Roast Beef:
++++++++++
We finished the meal with sweet tofu which was a nice and soothing.
++++++++++
To be honest, by the end of the meal you kind of get used to the spices and the spiciness of each dish seems to be the same.

Went to Shatin because some relatives live there and there are quite a lot of expats around this area as it is next to Tai Po where most BBCs live except me.
Didn't know where to eat because Shatin is always packed with people but went here because of the recent reviews.
We had steamed fish of the day and two other hardcore exotic dishes like XO sauce frogs legs and black bean sauce intestines!
++++++++++
steamed fish of the day:
Basically a flawless dish when the fish is fresh and steamed just right.
It was a great size for sharing and the fish was silky and soft complimented by the lovely soy sauce and grassy spring onions.
++++++++++
XO sauce frogs legs:
They have a chicken like texture and taste tossed in XO sauce which isn't that spicy but someone found it spicy so I think my spiciness threshold has gone up.
++++++++++
black bean sauce intestines:
Plain intestines don't really have any taste which is why the black bean sauce is a great thing to pair it with and it reminded me of black bean sauce squids with that springy chewy texture.
More black beans please because I love black beans.

[Review 5201] Cheung Chau fishballs in Sai Kung @ 明記小食

I was on my way getting the hell out of Sai Kung when I noticed this shop because I saw the words Cheung Chau which made me curious.
It was a nice CLEAN little shop which made me stop by for some noodles.
They had marinated soya chicken legs, chicken wings, siumai and stuff like that but the star was BIG CHEUNG CHAU FISHBALLS.
My noodles were only $8 which is a bargain in Sai Kung and the sets including a drink is only $19 which is fair for snacks.
The noodles were ok but slightly sticky because it had some sauce from the chicken marinade.
The shop staff were surprisingly nice because this woman had quite a bit of shopping and they gave her a big bag to put everything in.

[Review 5200] Espuma afternoon tea @ Espuma

Espuma

17/F, M88, Wellington Place, 2-8 Wellington Street, Central
https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/espuma-afternoon-tea-e2570392
Went here because M88 has really nice views in Central and the afternoon tea for two is really affordable compared to other places including drinks.
Here is what you get in the tea set and for $15 more you can choose some fancy drinks.

I went for the Earl Grey macchiato which came with a delicious thick layer of salted cream foamcap.
Then came the teaset which was served on a clear acrylic stand that was the shape of the letter e for Espuma.
Scones with cream and jam:
Savoury items in the tea set:
Sweet items in the tea set:
The savoury treats were really nice especially the vol au vent with mushrooms and the sweet treats I liked the purple potato puff topped with crushed nuts.
The scones were the best because they were crumbly with raisins in it and they tasted amazing with that delicious creamy foam cap from my drink because the creamyness was intense.

[Review 5199] Yue Mic Ka dinners @ 魚米家魚湯米線大王 Yue Mic Ka

https://www.openrice.com/zh/hongkong/review/yue-mic-ka-dinners-e2570388
Went here for dinners and they have these pots to choose from.
The pots are supposed to come with vegetables but they ran out so gave us Chinese radish in fish soup which was quite nice but the radish was a bit old and woody with a sweet and bitter taste.
The trotters were too oily and sweet for my liking.
The fish in tomato sauce was really good because the tomato sauce was nice but the batter was egg batter which wasn't good because it went soft too quickly and the eggy taste was more prominent than the fish.
