T'ang Court authentic chinese food

I have been to this restaurant twice already. And if you really want some great food with some authenticity of Cantonese food this is the place to go to. It is expensive because the raw materials are expensive. Talk about the best seafood and the best cut of meat even their chicken dish is impeccable. Who knew the Chinese can really cook chicken many different ways vs KFC deep fried or baked. If you go to any Chinese restau you can find at least 5 dishes of chicken that are made differently.

They served the most expensive delicacy of shark fin soup. At HKD 600-700 a bowl you better enjoy it. Shark fin is now banned in Canada. It is even a bigger offense than growing marijuana in your house if caught with having it in your house and eating it. I don't know if it is going to be ban in Hong Kong soon.

Samples of food we had for dinner.

Fresh abalone on bed of jelly fish. This is an appetizer dish served cold and very refreshing.

Piglet knuckles served as an appetizer.

This one is absolutely delish. Smoked duck. Very moist and juicy.

Shark fin soup.

Fresh steamed fish. The fish head is the best part if you know how to eat.

Baked fried rice in crab shell. I love the presentation and the rice is yummy too.

French Bistro!


I love the menu.
Voila! W’s Entrecôte ... my hubby found a lovely French Bistro in Hong Kong ... I think this place is a gem. It is located on the 6th floor of the Express by Holiday Inn in Causeway Bay. Not too far from the Causeway Bay MTR exit A.

Crème de Champignons
Entrecôte (4 oz)

I ordered the ribeye steak ... cooked to perfection the way I like it ... medium rare with bloody juice still in the steak and all you can eat fries ... who can beat that. And they are sweet potato fries ... yummy!
Forêt Noire, Coulis de Cerise
I also had the cream of mushroom soup and it is piping hot so watch your tongue. I had the black forest cake for dessert which isn't as heavy as the usual. It is Hong Kong style fluffy cake. All in all a great meal just for HKD 158.00 + 22.5 for the half price dessert.

The service is excellent.

Will go back in an heart beat.

AWA charity bazaar

I haven't seen that many people at a bazaar before. But this bazaar covers from the 3rd floor to the 5th floor. It is held by American Women's Association of Hong Kong at the Hong Kong Jockey Club Happy Valley Racecourse which is just a 10 minutes walk from Times Square.

I was helping about Watchdog Early Education Center at their booth.



Lovely jewels piece by Monet and also cultured pearls and vintage silver rings.
