Sunday Feast at Grissini

We had lunch at my favorite Italian restaurant in Hong Kong, Grissini at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Wan Chai. As soon as you enter the restaurant you can smell the aroma of freshly baked grissini or breadsticks made on site. These are the lightest and crunchiest breadsticks I’ve ever eaten. They are best whenContinue reading “Sunday Feast at Grissini”

Gyu Jin Shabu Shabu & Sukiyaki

We walked around iSQUARE and checked out all the restaurants that were already opened. As soon as we peeked in this restaurant we knew we wanted to try it out.

Cafe de Coral

After lunch at Bambu at the Venetian Hotel Macao, we took the ferry back to Hong Kong. We wanted to have a light dinner after the heavy buffet from lunch.

Inarizushi

I love sushi but not so much the raw stuff. I can remember the first time I tried inarizushi. One bite and I was in love. I really liked the beancurd skin but I don’t usually eat all the rice inside. It’s a good thing I saw inarizushi with different fillings in a Japanese restaurantContinue reading “Inarizushi”

Another lunch at H.K. Choi

I received an urgent text if I wanted to eat at H.K. Choi because it was the last day for the 30% off promotion if you dine from 2:00-5:00 pm. I naturally said yes. So did 6 other friends. We’re really easy to convince when it comes to eating out. As I’ve said in myContinue reading “Another lunch at H.K. Choi”
