curried flavour fish ball

Wow… Look at all the choices!

Here I am standing at the famous hangout place Causeway Bay and in the middle of Times Square.

These are very popular and is one of the delicacy in Hong Kong, you can find these snack stalls in every corner! The locals love Curry Yu-Tan (Cantonese) the most, which is Curry Fish-Balls. Don’t forget to buy some and try when you drop by Hong Kong! I love those paper bag they put them in, it just tastes better with it.

Mmm the curry taste

Ok I was in a hurry… so I ta-pao-ed (Cantonese) which literally means takeaway.

The curry sauce is just nice, not too spicy not too plain. The fishballs are small and chewy, which is tasty!

and more fishballs!

Close up of the tasty fish ball covered in curry sauce *Mmmm*

Does anyone in Auckland make these? Maybe this is a new business venture for someone :smile: reading now

Lastly some octopus to go with it…. tastes not bad, but i prefer curried fishballs, CURRY YU-TAN FTW!

Great snacks when you are in a hurry, the roads and footpath are ever so busy in Hong Kong, please watch your step! its quite hard taking pictures at a busy intersection

Mee Pok Dry

Only SGD$4.00 ! So satisfied to pay, compared to New Zealand *hehe* Sorry but Mee Pok Dry is one of my favourite dish, I don’t know why but the noodle really attracts me. It’s thick egg noodle, not as thick as kuay teow a little bit thinner but it tastes so much better.

It’s just dry noodle dipped in hot water and drained. It comes with fish cakes, fish balls and simple veges.

You must try it! Anyone who is going to transit in Singapore, its on the ground floor, you can apply for a few hours just to eat some authentic Singaporean food. The chicken rice in the boarding area (after you enter departure gate) is not too bad, but the one underneath departure gate is much much better!

If you know of any mee pok existence in Auckland, please please please tell me! And I mean the real mee pok okay? :silly:

Choose your noodle!

Waaaaa… look at all the variety you can choose from. Spicy to non-spicy! And Otak too! And all so cheap….. :cwy:

Mee Pok in the making

My beloved mee pok dry in the making… you can choose wet :silly: too, which just means with soup.

The aunty is very fast, just 5mins you will have your noodle ready to go! you just queue on the spot and move along just like everybody else. It seems very popular with the locals, as I can see many airport office workers and flight attendants queue up fast when it’s time for lunch! :lol:

Perhaps you did like BBQ?

Perhaps you dont like noodles, you can go for BBQ Pork ? Roasted Duck ? Soy Sauce Chicken? and Chicken Rice, whichever it is… it’s all TASTY

my mee pok dry

Ok I decided to go with Mee Pok Dry with mince and etc. YUMMY. Comes with free soup too.

Time for some dessert !

Chendol!

Chendol - traditional dessert consist of shaved ice, coconut milk, pandan food colouring and flavour, palm sugar, red beans, glutinous rice, grass jelly and creamed corn. You can choose your toppings too, ideal on a very hot day, especially in Southeast Asia :cool: .
