Late Dinner at Delicious Kitchen

Before dinner, we went first to “The One” mall that was located at the corner of Nathan Road near miramar shopping center and in front of park lane shoppers boulevard to do some window shopping. The Mall was also very tall like the iSquare and K11 mall that we have been too. It was 29 storeys high and have more than 200 shops.

Every mall seemed to have their Christmas decoration including their giant Christmas tree.

After we got tired of walking around this big mall, we know tried to search for a place to eat for our dinner unfortunately all restaurants in the mall was full of people being the Christmas holidays and all so we decided to find a restaurant outside.

People strolling outside in the cold weather

Good thing that before we went to Hong Kong, I read on other food blogs that there is this place where Filipino tourists would usually go and eat because of their delicious Hong Kong cuisine. The favorite and popular restaurant was Delicious Kitchen and the only branch then was at Causeway Bay but now they also have one here at Tsim Sha Tsui. The place wasn’t that hard to find, as long as you have a map.

Free hot tea, Chopsticks, and some preserved salted mustard greens.

We weren’t really that hungry so we just ordered three dishes

Pork rib with veggie rice HK$38

This was the dish that I ordered; they say that this is their no. 1 specialty so I ordered it. It had a large piece of fried pork chop top on a bowl of hot rice with bok choy (pechay in tagalog). The pork chop was awesome, it had a different flavor. It was sweet unlike other pork chops that are salty and oily. This was cooked perfectly and was super tender and juicy. Best pork chop I had.

Chicken in wine sauce HK$55

I was kind of risky in ordering this dish because I wanted to try how it tasted. The chicken dish was cold and the wine was too strong for me (maybe it would taste better to those who love beer/wine). Every bite of the chicken, you can really taste the wine giving it an unusual taste.

Won Ton in soup HK$40

The weather was cold so having a soup dish would be a great idea. The Won Ton was scrumptious, we didn’t know what the filling was but it tasted like salted ham. good dumplings in soup dish.

Final Thoughts

The food was certainly delicious; they have a very large array of dishes and set meals in their menu that you can try at an affordable price.

Xia Fei Dimsum at K11 Mall

After going to park lane shoppers boulevard and our afternoon stroll in Kowloon park, we decided to go to K11 Mall to find if there are restaurants that would serve dimsum nearby for our snack. 

The outside entrance of their mall.

There was a small billboard sign outside that showed their different restaurants in the mall. We decided to go to Xia Fei cause of the picture which showed a 4 pc. dimsum. 

Upon entering the mall you could see the different Christmas decorations and Christmas music played in the background. 

Loved this very small house that had Christmas decorations outside and inside.

 

A Small Christmas Tree inside.

We finally arrived. Xia Fei is a restaurant that served Shanghainese food, it was very hard to find in the mall cause it was located at the very end of the basement of K11 mall.

Their Dimsum Menu, They also serve different dishes like noodles and other main dishes.

Free Hot Tea was served upon arriving at our seats, It was very good.

There weren't any people eating at that time, but after 30 mins. the placed got filled up fast easily.

wood cages (not sure. lol.) in their ceiling

The Chefs cooking food. We ordered all dimsum dishes that were the chef's recommendations in the menu.

Steamed shredded pork, shrimp, and chive dumpling HK$24

Very good dumplings, you can taste the pork, shrimp and chive. It was a soup dumpling or what they call Xia Long Bao. The soup was hot and very rich and tasteful. It was definitely one of the best soup dimsums Iv'e tasted.

Steamed minced pork dumplings HK$24

Unlike the other soup dumpling that we ordered, this only had minced pork in it. The pork was chunkier in it was also hot and rich and filled with flavor. It was also very good.

Pan fried beef pastry filled with soup $HK26

This dish was also like soup dimsum but instead of steamed, it was pan fried. The beef inside was flavorful as well as the soup inside which was tasteful and meaty. We liked more the two steamed dishes than this one, nonetheless it was still good. 

Pan fried minced pork buns HK$26

This dish was also good, it had what looked liked sesame seeds. The bun was tasteful but kinda tasted like the beef pastry but without the soup. 

Pan fried scallop and turnip pastry $HK26

I wasn't sure in ordering this dish but it was one of the chef's recommendations. You can really taste the turnip and it is not that bad. The bottom of the pastry had sesame seeds which gave it a taste like buchi. This would be the least favorite dish of the six that we've ordered. Nonetheless it was still good.  

Shanghainese shredded pork bamboo shoot and mushroom spring rolls HK$22

Very long name for a dish that looks like fried lumpiang shanghai rolls. The best lumpiang shanghai Ive tasted, the bamboo shoot and mushroom gave a different flavor to the dish. You don't even need sauce to eat the dish cause it was flavorful alone. 

Our Bill

Final Thoughts

Very good Shanghainese dimsum, especially the Xiao Long Bao or soup dimsums. Their dimsums weren't cheap but it was good and worth it.

Best Desserts at Honeymoon Dessert

After Lunch at Hokkaido Ramen Santouka, we decided to have dessert and we saw this restaurant that was near. 

There was a TV outside that showed their different desserts.

The restaurant seemed to serve only desserts, lots of dessert. 

Their Dessert Menu

I never thought I would have a hard time in choosing dessert, especially when their menu is full of them. I had never seen a menu, especially a 4-5 page one that had many dessert choices. There were hot and cold, chinese, and some with grass jelly, ice cream, sago, tofu, fruit, and many other ingredients. I decided to choose the simplest and familiar dessert that was interesting to me. I wasn't that adventurous in picking my dessert cause I wasn't sure if it would taste good. 

Some people ordering and enjoying their dessert.

Loved their Ceiling, It had books as a design and the lighting was good. 

Snow White Sago $HK26

My sister ordered this dish. Unlike me, she was adventurous in choosing her dessert, she said it was very good and sweet. It had fresh mangoes, sweet potato, toddy palm, bananas and sago with black dots. The dish looked good and appetizing, even though it had many ingredients in it they were able to mix and taste well together. Get ready to taste different flavors when you order this dish. 

"Black Pearl" In Vanilla Sauce with Ice Cream HK$29

My dish had simple ingredients, three to be exact. It had black pearls, vanilla sauce and a scoop of vanilla ice cream as the name of dish simply says. Unlike my sister's dish that had a different and fancy name, mine was very simple. Nonetheless, it was very good and refreshing! It was very sweet and the crushed iced in it was just like halo - halo but they use vanilla sauce instead. The ice cream was good and it didn't melt that easily. I preferred my dessert more than her snow white sago. 

Our Bill

Final Thoughts

Best dessert I had! definite change of phase from cheesecake desserts in our country. Lot of choices to choose from, very friendly staff and a cozy place. A very unique place that serves good desserts. Hope to try their other desserts once I get the chance to go back to Hong Kong. It would be the first place I would go to have dessert. Lol.
