Generally the menu was straight forward with no real surprises, but that’s what classic Chinese cooking is about. His cooking style was rather simple and subtle without being under seasoned and there was a consistency with every course that came with rehearsed and experienced recipes.

The menu and flavours were approachable and the quality of ingredients were impressive and treated well. It used traditional techniques and familiar flavours with modern and clean presentation. Some of the dishes were exceptional and unlike other versions of it I’ve had globally.

Lung King Heen means “view of the dragon” and it was the first Chinese restaurant to ever receive 3 Michelin Stars. The Executive Chef, Chan Yan Tak, is also the only Chinese chef to be awarded three stars making this a local and tourist dining destination.

My Follow Me Foodie Favourites & Best of 2012! I prefer calling it my “favourites” or most “memorable” experiences, but I’ll include “the best” just because I’m weak and want to align with every other “best of 2012″ list out there. This is a recap of my delicious 2012.

The secret is out! I want to eat where the Fishermen eat! It was very homestyle and simple, but that’s exactly the cooking method and style you want for a place serving seafood this fresh and high in quality. There is no menu though and you just pay market price for everything.
The line up here was full of locals and it is a 1 Michelin Star Restaurant, but on the affordable side of the Michelin Guide. One Dim Sum is a favourite because it offers great value without sacrificing on quality, service or atmosphere. The home made rice noodle rolls are a must try!
My Follow Me Foodie Adventure: A search for the stinkiest stinky tofu in Hong Kong. I was on the tram enjoying the sights of the city and then out of nowhere I was hit by the rancid smell of hot steamy sewage. My nose and brain finally registered as to what it was. I realized that it was stinky tofu & it was intoxicating.
