And I also got some duck and then some char siu. Also one of their... also one of their bestsellers. So let's first try the roast pork, the juicy roast pork.

Next let's try the char siu It's smoky, delicious, soft, tender. Let's add some of the hoisin sauce. It's just really good. It's a different kind of hoisin sauce. You can really taste the fruit flavor in it. It isn't just hoisin sauce. I think there's some fruit, some sort of fruit. Like it's more like a strawberry jam and hoisin sauce merged together. Wow. And you got this. Let's try the soy chicken next. Mmm. A little bit smooth and some sort of sliminess. A little bit of fat. Sliminess comes from the fat and the collagen. Yes, the chicken is slow-cooked again. Slow-cooked till tender. This restaurant, Yong He Long Fan Dian or Wing Hap Dong restaurant is known for the roast pork. But this is the last batch of roast pork I think for the day because it came in a little bit late. It's almost dinner and then they actually closes at 8 p.m. So expectation-wise, I think because it is last batch so it's not that good anymore. But it's still pretty flavorful. Oh, I forgot I also got some roast duck over here. Juicy, fatty, and it's melt-in-your-mouth. So a bowl of that mixed platter, mixed bao is around 50 to 60, 50 to 70 Hong Kong dollars. They actually don't, I don't think they got English menu. So I think you can just point by the window where uncle chops his meat. So that was a pretty great meal. I'm getting sleepy. I think it's a, thank you, bye-bye. I'm getting sleepy. It's a meat sleep. Wait, is that a word? Oh yeah, I'm getting sleepy from eating too much meat. The next day. So there's actually a famous noodle spot just beside our hotel. The name of this noodle spot is, what do you call this? Lian Ji, Lian Ji noodles. So I'm hungry right now. Let's go inside. Let's eat. Let's order some noodles. So the menu is just right in front of me. We got, we got on top of those, we have the soup noodles. We have noodle soup and then right here below are dried noodles.

It's a trash can beneath my table. Anyways, the food is good. So this plate will cost me 45 Hong Kong dollars and then the wonton noodle soup will be 35 Hong Kong dollars. 80 Hong Kong dollars for both. Wow, it was pretty worth it. It's worth the money. Wow, absolute banger here. Lien Kee Noodles. So after walking through some busy streets in Hong Kong, we're finally here. Temple Street. Yeah, you've guessed it. Hing Kee clay pot restaurant. So we are now here at the legendary Hong Kong clay pot restaurant Hing Kee. Wow, so the restaurant right now is air-conditioned. It's pretty hot right now. I thought it's an outdoor restaurant where you sit outside but they got some air conditioning in here. It's pretty nice. So let's take a look at the menu. Alright, so they have an English translation for their menu. So that is pretty nice. I would like to try other style of hot pot but I think I should go with the classic first. Look at this. They got one, two, three, four, four pages of hot pot rice, of clay pot rice only. This one doesn't have a picture but this one is the preserved meats and spare ribs with rice pot. So I'm gonna have some preserved meat and the spare rib. We also got a classic oyster omelette here. I ordered a small portion of it. Our oyster pancake came first. Pretty oily, pretty greasy but the look of it. Then we got a side of chili sauce. Wow, you can hear that. You can hear from the butter that it's very fluffy and crispy. Alright, let's take a bite of it. You eat first. Plump and juicy oysters. Wow, oysters is also a little bit big you know. It's not the small oysters from the usual oyster pancake. They got some medium-sized oyster inside. Let's try it with some of the chili sauce. Wow, oh yeah. So we got the sweet chili sauce here. It pairs really, really well with the oyster pancake. So you can see how greasy it is. You have some oil drippings even on the table. But it is very, very light. You actually don't taste the grease at all. It's like this dish really comes with that much oil but yeah, pretty fantastic. Alright, so our main dish is here. Our claypot rice. Wow, it smells a little bit like ginger. So we got a scary claypot rice with some preserved sausages. I think it's Chinese sausages. Let's try the rice first. Yeah, so it's a very famous, it's one of the most famous claypot rice spots here in Hong Kong. We are now in Temple Street Hinky restaurant. So let's try the rice first. You eat first. So every grain of rice moves inside your mouth. I think the grain of rice they use here is jasmine rice or that type of rice, lak chong and la chong, preserved Chinese sausage. It's a usual Chinese sausage. I'm actually not a huge fan of the Chinese sausage but this one's pretty good. Let's try the spare ribs next. It's okay, it's smooth. Spare ribs with the black bean sauce. And then next, the different kind of ham. This is called, it's like the Iberico ham. It's called la rou in Chinese. I forgot what they call it in English but it's called la rou. Let's try it. Very rich, very salty, very savory taste. And the last thing we got here on our claypot is this some sort of sausage. This is my favorite. It's some pork sausage and then a strong, strong taste of Shaoxing wine. Wow. Not just Shaoxing wine. There's a type of Chinese preserved tofu, it's called the Red Chinese Preserved Tofu. This is what that tastes like. It's called hong fu rou in Chinese. I think that's the reason why it's colored red a little bit inside. Wow. It's my favorite here. Oh wow, so that was a lovely meal. And I just realized now, I actually got Mark Wins on the menu. Oh my god, my idol over here have Mark Wins on the menu. Who is this other guy? Not sure who is this other guy. But yeah, I've got Mark Wins. So I also ordered a takeout to go.

All right, I'll see you tomorrow in the morning. Good night. The next morning. Good morning everyone. We're now in the metro right now and we're heading to Tin Ho station for some beef brisket noodles. So here we are. Sister Wa's Beef Noodle Shop. And then we came a little bit early. The shop actually opens at 11 a.m. And it's now 10.50. So it's about to open soon. Oh so it just opened right now and we are now ready to enter the shop. Wow, immediately as you step inside you can smell the aroma from the broth that they are cooking right now. And then the restaurant is pretty tiny. There's only a couple seats inside the shop. So we ordered different kinds of noodles. We also ordered a curry noodles. It got crowded really fast and then it's already a line outside. I think they're gonna wait for a long time. Wow, so the first dish has come. This is the Tan Tan noodles with pork ribs. I thought the pork ribs is gonna be placed on the soup but it's pork ribs on the side. So let's try the broth of this Tan Tan pork ribs. The broth tastes really good. There's a little bit of peanut flavor in the broth and then it's very very savory. Let's mix the noodles up. This is Tan Tan noodles with pork ribs. Really plain, really simple. It tastes a little bit like satay noodles. It tastes a little bit like that but the peanut butter flavor is not that strong. So the pork ribs is alright. It's pretty tasty but a little bit salty and then it's not as tender as you will eat in some pork chop shops out there. So let's first try the famous beef brisket noodles. So we got some tender jiggly pieces of beef inside. We also got some beef tendon. Wow, look at that tendon. So huge. So let's first try the broth from the famous beef brisket noodles. Really clean tasting. Slight beefy flavor but a very strong radish flavor.

Soft delicate rice noodles. Let's try the piece of tendon. Very soft beef tendon. So this is the curry noodles with soup by the side and then the noodles also by the side. Wow, so this curry has a layer of oil on top and then this jiggly pieces of beef brisket. Wow, let's try beef brisket. Really tender. Really flavorful curry flavor. A little bit spicy. A little bit mild curry flavor. It's not that as strong as the ones you can eat in Indian restaurants. One thing that still stands out here is the beef brisket noodle and then especially get it in this kind of noodle, the rice noodles. Wow, very refreshing. Then seeing how locals eat here, they actually put chili sauce inside the beef brisket noodle. Put a little bit of chili oil. Mix it up. All right, let's try the beef brisket with some chili oil in it. Wow, the chili sauce brings it to the next level. Wow, it is a little bit spicy even though I just put a very tiny amount of chili oil. All right, so let's get out of this restaurant. It's packed with people right now and then there are people lining outside still. Wow, that was a heartwarming bowl of noodle soup. Look at the line. Look at the line. Well, the line is not that bad but yeah, you need to wait. You need to wait a bit to be served in the restaurant. So, that was an amazing beef brisket noodle.
