Dim sum in the outskirts of Kowloon

Not a fan of Chinese dim sum, so just ordered a few items, prawn dumplings, chicken feet and glutinous rice wrapped in lotus leaves.

Prawn dumplings:
Had this around dinner time, so these prawn dumplings were probably made during the day and left in the steamer.
They tasted ok, but one of the dumpling skin was slightly dehydrated.

Glutinous rice wrapped in lotus leaves:
I felt the rice was a bit too soggy and oily otherwise it was Ok.
The filling was generous and had nearly everything such as roast pork, chicken, salted egg yolk, mushrooms.
I wonder how all that was packed in.

Chicken feet:
The flavour was weak and the chicken feet were not soft enough.

Ra Cha Moo Yang's thai sausage

After trying the Thai sausage at Thai hut I decided to try the one here.

The one here was too dry and not as flavourful as Thai Hut.
There was less noodles in the sausage and the sausage was chewy.

 

Weird but nice! Creamy garlic and black bean sauce

Saw this weird dish so decided to get it.

It was a baked dish.
Usually the Chinese baked dishes are tomato sauce or cheese based with seafood or pork chops.

However this one was garlic and black bean, and usually in Chinese cooking it is in the form of a clear gravy, but the sauce for this dish was creamy!!!! Not like the traditionary clear brown gravy with garlic and black beans.

I assumed it was going to be served in a ceramic dish with the rice beneath the fish, but the rice was served separately and it was plain boiled rice too which is better than fried rice.

The fish was on a bed of vegetables including Aubergine, carrots and potatoes.

 

The potatoes tasted and looked like English roast potatoes.

 

Although the baked dish tried to be slightly different to the usual Chinese baked dish, there was still a piece of processed cheese on top.

 

Without the cheese, it still would have tasted nice.

The sauce was quite nice, it was a bit like gravy with the black bean flavouring, however I would have preferred a stronger black bean taste.
The colour and consistency reminded me of Chinese black pepper steak gravy but without the pepperiness.

At the bottom of the dish there was about a teaspoon of oil.

 

Lastly the low sugar green tea was too sweet.

Low sugar but super sweet!

One stop noodles for $11 @ 佳豐粉麵店

Stopped by this little joint for noodles, however its ordering system is different.

It was similar to ordering noodles in Sai Kung, however the noodles at Sai Kung are much pricier and they will take the noodles to your seat after you have ordered and paid.

At this restaurant, you order what you want, pay for it and then YOU collect your bowl of noodles and find a place to sit down.

I was not keen eating beef organs so I just chose fried luncheon meat.

The noodles were not the ones I were expecting, they were the springy type noodles found in wonton noodles.
But quite reasonable for $11.
