A ferry trip to Cheung Sha Hong Kong getaway May 2010

 A ferry ride from the bustle of Hong Kong lies a wealth of experiences.  this is becoming a bit of a favourite.  Come out of the ferry once you land, past the bikes and around the corner til you come to buckets and tanks piled up under a tented restaurant.  Try not to look at the turtles (trying so hard to escape) and focus on the goodness that lies ahead.

excellent "clockles" in a black bean sauce

salt and pepper squid, tender and with a slight coffee taste but it works!

perfectly steamed broccoli with garlic

steamed fish with ginger and shallots which just falls apart it's so delicate and the soy and sesame dressing highlights the freshness

and then the fried rice - smokey, balanced, and perfect - so even though we're full, we find ourselves inexplicably piling up our bowls for more...

helped by a cold Tsing Dao (or 3)


All that for HKD400 - it's criminal
