Prawn burger at the local ViLLAGE KEBAB joint

ViLLAGE KEBAB (Sai Kung)

Randomly went here for food and didn't know what to order so decided to get a prawn burger.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Prawn burger:

The burger was quite huge with melted mozzarella in the middle.

The prawn patty was good because there was quite a lot of prawn grounded into it.
It had a firm and springy texture.

Salmon tartare with local prawn crackers

Had dinner at this place and the portions were huge.

Ordered mussels, tartare and the pork knuckle.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Salmon tartare:

The salmon tartare had a really creamy taste and it was also quite fishy.
It tasted much better when it was eaten with the cracker beside it.
Surprisingly the cracker is a local cracker by Four Seas called the Crispy prawn cracker which is the one in the orange packet!

Frites Belgium on Tap (灣仔)

Early in the morning with Perrier

It is rare that I have breakfast and you won't see me awake before 8am.

That day was special because I was invited onboard the USS George Washington so I had to force myself to be at Pier 10 (the temporary) at 7:45am.

Temporary pier at Pier 10

I arrived a bit too early in Central and decided to get something to eat but nothing caught my fancy on the way from the MTR to the pier.

Central at 7am in the morning!!!

As there was a Starbucks nearby, I ended up getting a bottle of Perrier because I had to hydrate myself with a drink.

A very special receipt showing how early it was that morning!


Anyway, the Perrier was ice cold and extremely fizzy that it caused some discomfort at the back of my throat.
It had a slightly savoury and metallic taste.

Meaty diet SUB with GLACÉAU vitaminwater

Tried this $42 combo set which consists of a SUBWAY Club™ and a bottle of GLACÉAU vitaminwater at SUBWAY. (Normally it would cost HK$57.8).

According to Subway, the SUBWAY Club™ is low-fat and low-calorie containing only 6-grams of fat.
Subway has met the nutritional criteria set forth by the American Heart Association's Heart-Check Meal Certification Program.

For drinks, there are quite a few flavours.

Glacéau vitaminwater is from New York, sold in major cities including London, Paris, Tokyo, Seoul. It is enhanced with nutrients without artificial flavourings.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
SUBWAY Club™:

I liked combination of ham, beef and turkey because it was filling, and all the meats were lean.

I had a simple sub, so I just opted for tomatoes and olives with ranch sauce.
The sub was simple and delicious with the juicy tomato slices and meats.

The drink was light and not too sweet so next time I will try other flavours.

Perrier sparkling water

I know it is trivial to review a bottle of Perrier but it is rare that I have breakfast and you won't see me awake before 8am which is why I am sharing this experience.

That day was special because I was invited onboard the USS George Washington so I had to force myself to be at Pier 10 (the temporary) at 7:45am.

McDonald's spicy beef burger with and without sauce

Tried the new SPICY BEEF BURGER a few days ago but found it too spicy so this time I tried it with and without the Malagueta chili sauce.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Strange activities at this branch of McDonalds:

People eating sushi bought from elsewhere and being tutored there.




It was interesting that there were lots of strange activities at this branch ranging from people giving tuition to people eating sushi which was bought from outside!!

Orange punch:

Tried this because it was a new drink but evidently it tasted artificial mixed with canned fruit and it was a syrupy sweet concoction.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Potato wedges:

As usual the potato wedges tasted good.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Spicy beef burger:



With the Malagueta sauce, I found it too spicy but the spicy sauce gave the burger a spicy taste with some creaminess.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Spicy beef burger without sauce:


Without the sauce, the burger did not taste dry because the beef patty for this burger is different, it is softer and I believe it is fattier because it is made with more fat.
Anyway, without the sauce, the burger is still spicy because it contains some chili and spices in the patty which makes it taste like chili con carne.

FIFA 2014 at Yorkshire Pudding

This is a great place to watch FIFA because they have it LIVE!!!

Anyway tried various of snacks:
Nachos
Scotch egg
Chips.


My favourites were the scotch eggs because it had a lovely molten egg yolk encased in delicious pork patty with crispy breadcrumbs on the outside.

There were many craft beers, and the London Pride I tried was quite bitter.
