Sorry didn’t get the full title of the shop. Sea view Congee Shop (海景粥店) also can be known as Hoi Keng Congee Shop. I really love this shop. Their porridge is really very nice and smooth (quite huge bowl). Plus their Zha Leong (炸两) & Yao Zha Guai (油炸鬼) is really very nice. Highly recommended. The branch that I tried is at Argyle Street

Getting up a little later than usual and get ourselves ready for the day. We take a walk down to the Goldfish Market, it is somewhere near Tung Choi Street (通菜街). Walked the wrong side actually before getting to the right one :P. Walking with so tiny map is not that easy. But they have very sufficient road signs so should be no problem. Today’s weather is the best. It’s getting slightly cooler than the hot weather we have encounter for the past few days.
Does this tunnel looks familiar? Haha it looks like the one we seen on those TVB drama once in a while
Very cute all the fish

Today is the day we starts our Hong Kong adventure. Our adventure today is to go to Ocean Park (海洋公園). Woke up early in the morning, head to our first stop which is Australia Dairy Company (澳洲牛奶公司) for breakfast. Please note that you must go very early for breakfast else you will have to line up to wait for your seats. I choose this as our first breakfast spot coz today we are heading to Hong Kong Island (south). So its just on the way. We took the MTR from MongKok (旺角) to Jordon (佐敦) station.
Look at the various types of newspaper

Yung Kee Restaurant (鏞記酒家)
This shop supposedly very famous with their roast goose. They have different sets of menus as well as ala carte. If you go in groups then you can order their set dishes else order separately. If you don’t want to waste time waiting, make sure you make a reservation earlier especially if you go in large groups. Reservations must be made 7 days in advance. You can also make the reservation online. Else you would have to wait for quite some time before you get seated if you go without a reservation. The place I assume is always so packed with people during dinner hour.
I have seen reviews online stating that their roast goose are quite good. But when I ordered it, the outcome disappoints me. Well maybe just my luck. Coz based on the review I’ve found some really did said the food is nice, some stated that the food is not that nice. Maybe too many people or I’ve ordered the wrong goose? Heh I am not sure but well … at least I tried. Overall the food is ok especially the soup tasted quite good.

Wake up early in the morning get ready for breakfast. On the way to Senado Square we stop by Patio do Cotovelo (德隆新街) for Cheung Fun (肠粉). This place I found it from PreciousPea’s blog. Well she didn’t mention exactly how to get there but I got the area place by zooming one of her photo taken outside the alley :p.

Lok Yuen (乐园)
This is the first place I went for dinner when I arrived at Hong Kong. Environment and price is also not bad. I am very fond of their Nai Cha which is also known as Milk Tea (our teh tarik). The aroma of the milk tea is really very good. Plus the milk & tea they put is very thick really very nice. I really miss the Milk Tea….

Let me introduce the Cheung Fun from Patio do Cotovelo (德隆新街) alley. The taste is kinda special. Usually those Cheung Fun we eat is only with sesame seed and sweet sauce but this is slightly different. It is mixture of sweet sauce, peanut butter and sesame seed. First time I tried it with peanut butter, it really taste quite nice.
