Teppan-Yakitori (Hong Kong)

Posted on December 21, 2014 by stenoodie

Located at Shop 20-21, 4/F, apm Millennium City 5, 418 Kwun Tong Road, Kwun Tong in Hong Kong

Teppan-Yakitori is a Japanese restaurant located in the apm shopping mall that serves food in both teppan and yakitori style, hence the name.  Teppanyaki is a type of Japanese cooking that uses an iron griddle to cook food and yakitori refers to food that is skewered.

I was very interested to try this restaurant out after Jennifer had recommended it to us but we didn’t get to go since their line-up didn’t work out with our preferences.  Thus, my mom and I went there the day afterwards to try it!  I can’t resist seeing a great restaurant like this and not getting the chance to try it. 🙂

(To be continued… Stay tuned. )

After having dinner with Jennifer and having an amazing conversation where she shared with me many great places to eat at in Hong Kong, I immediately consulted her list when going for lunch with my mom the next day.  I wish I had this list of restaurants sooner!

One of the restaurants that she recommended was called TamJai SamGor which is a cross-bridge noodles restaurant.   Continue reading →

Häagen-Dazs in Hong Kong

Posted on December 16, 2014 by stenoodie

Located at Shop 7, 1/F, apm Millennium City 5, 418 Kwun Tong Road, Kwun Tong in Hong Kong

Oh yum!!!  I got to try out an icy creation at one of the branches at Häagen-Dazs in Hong Kong. 😀  This was my first time eating at this well-known and fancy pants ice cream shop — YOLO.  Previously, I’ve noticed how posh they are and how a lot of people tend to go crazy for Häagen-Dazs ice cream (usually girls) while I’ve never been that fond of them.  Continue reading →

Korean Food at School Food [Defunct]

Posted on December 15, 2014 by stenoodie

Located at Shop 107, 1/F, New Town Plaza Phase 1, 18 Sha Tin Centre Street, Sha Tin in Hong Kong

We finally had the chance to check out School Food, a Korean restaurant in Sha Tin.  (I swear, I’m pretty much checking off this whole block of restaurants here).  It’s funny that I willingly and excitedly decided on this restaurant considering we had JUST landed on the plane from South Korea a mere 10 hours ago.  I don’t mind Korean food one bit and I didn’t even get sick of eating kimchi during every single meal for six days straight.  Ha!   Continue reading →

Wing Wah Noodle Shop (Hong Kong)

Posted on December 13, 2014 by stenoodie

Located at 89 Hennessy Road, Wan Chai in Hong Kong

Wonton noodle restaurants are commonplace to see in Hong Kong but none has as long a history and is as classic as the one called Wing Wah Noodle Shop that resides on Hennessy Road in Wan Chai, Hong Kong.

At first, I didn’t even notice this restaurant much (as there was also no English name to its signage), but upon closer look, I noticed that the front of the restaurant is posted with a picture of the Michelin Man with some text.   Continue reading →

apm Shopping Mall, Hong Kong. November 2014

For those who are counting (not me), there are 13 days left until Christmas Day.  That’s less than two weeks!  Those of you would have noticed all the Christmas and winter holiday decorations hoisted up and advertised immediately after the Halloween costumes were worn.   Continue reading →
