The Food of Hong Kong

This blog post is dedicated to two of our best friends and the biggest foodies we know, Emi and Kyle. Check out there blog if you get a chance, so fun to read about all the different foods they are cooking, eating and enjoying! http://emiandkyleheartfood.blogspot.com/

Hong Kong has some of the BEST Chinese foods available as well as such a wonderful variety, from Chinese to Italian to French to Japanese and Korean, it has it all! Here are some shots of the delicious food we had during the weekend visit.

Could not resist, Emi and Kyle's last name is Suzuki and since we knew we would dedicate
the food blog to them.....is was just perfect to stumble upon this cafe.



Peking DUCK!! Peking Garden, amazing and rated one of the BEST peking duck restaurants in Hong Kong...YUM..MMY!!!!!



How to eat the duck, rice pancake, hoisin sauce, duck and green onion. Mouth watering good!


On our first full day in the city we sat down for a Korean BBQ lunch, it has been years since I've had Korean BBQ and I need to go back! SO GOOD! You pick out your raw meats and veggies and grill it up at the center of the table, once done, dip into your sauce and enjoy!



On Saturday night, we had the opportunity to dine at one of the top rated Cantonese restaurants in the world. Contemporary Cantonese fare prepared from fresh local delicacies at Lung King Heen, the world"s only Chinese restaurant with three Michelin stars, which features silver and glass accents to reflect Hong Kong’s glittering skyline. We had the chef's special, a 7 course surprise meal and WOWEEWOWAHHHHHH it was truly an experience. Thank you to Auntie and Uncle Richie for spoiling us with such a lavish and delicious meal! A big big big treat!
